CRC* Handbook of Chemistry and Physics

Continues to be the most accurate, reliable, and current resource available for chemical data. Provides a completely revised, reformatted, and thoroughly updated table of the Physical Constants of Organic Compounds. Incorporates significant updates to tables for interstellar molecules, the properties of isotopes, the ionization potentials of atoms, and the Sources of Chemical and Physical Data appendix. Includes a new table on the Fermi Energy and Related Properties of Metals. Restores several tables omitted from recent editions of the Handbook including Flame and Bead Tests, Flame Temperature, and the density of ethanol-water mixtures as a function of composition and temperature.
