Description and Table of Contents

Description

Using the classical (phenomenological) approach to thermodynamics as opposed to the statistical approach, this text applies theory to chemical, biological and geological problems. The essential mathematical tools and computational techniques are reviewed. This edition contains additional problems, chapters on the thermodynamics of the electrochemical cell, Eh/pH diagrams, a revised chapter on the estimation of thermodynamic properties and treatment of the latest work in electrolyte solutions.

Table of Contents

Partial table of contents: Mathematical Preparation for Thermodynamics. Enthalpy, Enthalpy of Reaction, and Heat Capacity. Application of the First Law to Gases. The Second Law of Thermodynamics. Equilibrium and Spontaneity for Systems at Constant Temperature: The Free Energy Functions. Application of the Gibbs Free Energy Function to Some Phase Changes. The Third Law of Thermodynamics. Application of the Gibbs Free Energy Function to Chemical Changes. Thermodynamics of Systems of Variable Composition. Mixtures of Gases. The Ideal Solution. Dilute Solutions of Nonelectrolytes. Activities and Standard States for Nonelectrolytes. Calculation of Partial Molar Quantities from Experimental Data: Volume and Enthalpy. Determination of Nonelectrolyte Activities.
