Textbook of Engineering Chemistry

Spread across 24 chapters and covering a wide gamut of topics required by the core engineering students of all branches, the 4th edition of this well-accepted textbook has been thoroughly revised to include the current trends in the B.Tech/BE curricula. Due to its simple language, straightforward approach to explaining concepts, and the right kind of examples, this book has established itself as student's companion in almost all leading universities in India. With its authentic text and a large number of questions taken from various university examinations, coupled with regular revisions, the book has served well for more than 20 years now.

In the attempt to keep the book aligned with various syllabuses and to reach out to students of more and more universities, more details have been included for the fourth edition, which has been completely recast and reformatted.

The book is meant for the first year engineering degree courses of Indian universities.
