In volume 1, the fundamental aspects of thermodynamics are presented. The first and second laws of thermodynamics are illustrated. The need to define thermodynamic temperature and the nature of entropy are explained. The book explores the meaning of auxiliary thermodynamic functions, the origin, usefulness and use of partial molar quantities. Gaseous systems and phase equilibria, in systems where chemical reactions do not take place, are described.
Both volumes comply with the latest IUPAC recommendations for symbols. Most of the specific mathematical tools are presented either directly in the text if they are used mostly in one chapter, while others are included in an appendix. A primarily phenomenological approach has been selected to keep chemical thermodynamics easily accessible to beginners. Intermediate steps in the derivations have been kept to enhance the clarity of the presentation.
A large number of problems, most of them original, all with complete solutions, are provided. They give this textbook a great pedagogical value. This book is primarily destined to students, graduate students and practicing scientists in the fields of Biochemistry, Chemistry, Biochemical and Chemical Engineering and Materials Science.
"[This] text offers many new and clever derivations of the well-worn equations of chemical thermodynamics... [It] is easy to read... [It] should be on the bookshelf of every serious teacher of thermodynamics."
Professor Gerald Van Hecke, Journal of Chemical Education 2001, 78, 1187.
