The Chemo Genesis Web Book
www.meta-synthesis.com/webbook.html
Chemogenesis is a new kind of analysis that looks at chemical structure and reactivity from the point of view of how it emerges from the periodic table of elements. Chemogenesis tries to build the story of chemistry from the point of view of its history. It assumes the starting point as the nucleosynthesis of chemical elements inside stars, which is followed by discovery of these elements (by humans) and the formation of theories (classical and quantum) that attempt to define our understanding of the chemistries involved.
The site starts with the basic concepts behind chemistry or chemical science: “nucleosynthesis, the periodic table, electronegativity, binary materials & why reactions occur.” It then explains the Chemogenesis analysis and goes on to explain other important elements of chemistry like chemical systems and structural systems.
While the treatment of the subject of chemistry on this site has nothing to do with any academic syllabus, the Chemogenesis site is nevertheless a useful tool that can help students understand reaction chemistry and its causes ( and effects ) in a more complete or holistic manner.
