Thermodynamics and Chemistry

An accessible, straightforward presentation of classical thermodynamics, focusing on derivations of basic relations, starting with thermodynamic laws and various applications of interest to chemical engineers. Written in a clear, rigorous, and understandable manner, the book extends applications of fundamental concepts by presenting topics relevant to chemistry, but which are often omitted from thermodynamics books. It indicates the conditions under which a particular equation is valid. And, it incorporates modern symbols and nomenclature, such as the notation recommended by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry. A valuable reference on thermodynamics for chemical engineers.
