Chemical Thermodynamics

<p>This course-derived undergraduate textbook provides a concise explanation of the key concepts and calculations of chemical thermodynamics. Instead of the usual ‘classical’ introduction, this text adopts a straightforward postulatory approach that introduces thermodynamic potentials such as entropy and energy more directly and transparently.</p><p>Structured around several features to assist students’ understanding, Chemical Thermodynamics :</p><p>- Develops applications and methods for the ready treatment of equilibria on a sound quantitative basis.</p><p>- Requires minimal background in calculus to understand the text and presents formal derivations to the student in a detailed but understandable way.</p><p>- Offers end-of-chapter problems (and answers) for self-testing and review and reinforcement, of use for self- or group study.</p><p>This book is suitable as essential reading for courses in a bachelor and master chemistry program and is also valuable as a reference or textbook for students of physics, biochemistry and materials science. </p>
