Thermodynamics of Chemical Processes is the only self-contained text to cover the thermodynamics of chemical processes at a level appropriate for undergraduates. Describing the basic principles which govern reactivity and phase equilibria in chemical systems, the text contains a number of worked examples and problems.
- Focused introductions designed to give students an in-depth understanding of a diverse range of important topics in modern chemistry
- Frequent diagrams, margin notes, and glossary definitions support students in their learning
- Questions at the end of every chapter and interactive online questions encourage active learning
- Examples and applications presented throughout help students to see the relevance of the subject to current research and industry
New to this edition
- More discussion of equilibrium in liquid, solution and solid state, including pKa, partition coefficients and coherent discussion of phase equilibrium
- Expanded treatment of phase in terms of Gibbs energy with more examples and self-study exercises for this challenging area
- Updated terminology and units to correspond to current practice
- New worked examples, problems and self-test questions encourage active learning and promote deeper understanding
- New Online Resources with interactive questions for students, and downloadable figures for instructors
