Recent advances in the concept of hard and soft acids and bases

Journal of Chemical Education · 1987 · Vol. 64(7) · pp. 561–561

Abstract

The hard / soft acids / bases principle has been justifiably criticized because of the lack of a precise definition of hardness and the inability to quantify this property; recent developments have overcome these objections, however.
