Thermodynamics, Statistical Thermodynamics, and Kinetics is a groundbreaking new text that explains core topics in depth with a focus on basic principles, applications, and modern research. The authors hone in on key concepts and cover them thoroughly and in detail — as opposed to the general, encyclopedic approach competing textbooks take. Excessive math formalism is avoided to keep readers focused on the most important concepts and to provide greater clarity. Applications woven throughout each chapter demonstrate to readers how chemical theories are used to solve real-world chemical prob

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

This full-color, modern physical chemistry reference offers compelling applications and arresting illustrations that capture readers’ attention and demonstrate the dynamic nature of the subject. The authors focus on core topics of physical chemistry, presented within a modern framework of applications. Modern applications are drawn from biology, environmental science, and material science.  Spectroscopy applications are introduced early in concert with theory; for example, IR and rotational spectroscopy are discussed immediately after the harmonic oscillator and the rigid rotar. Modern

This volume describes applications of nonequilibrium thermodynamics to complex systems. These are characterized by an involved form of Gibbs equation and they include systems such as solutions of macromolecules, magnetic hysteresis bodies, viscoelastic fluids and high temperature gradients.

"Thermophysics poses one of the most exciting questions in theoretical physics: how can one reconcile the irreversibility of natural processes with the reversible mechanics governing the elementary constituents of thermal systems?" Professors Yourgrau, van der Merwe and Raw prefaced their treatise with this remark more than 30 years ago; while progress in thermophysics has been, to say the least, dynamic, the remark and the excitement hold true today. For this hardcover Dover edition, the authors (including Wolfgang Yourgrau before his death) extensively revised the treatise. The terms are the

This volume provides a state-of-the-art report on the modelling of aqueous-solid solution systems by the combined use of chemical thermodynamics and experimental and computational techniques. These systems are ubiquitous in nature and therefore intrinsic to the understanding and quantification of radionuclide containment and retardation processes present in geological repositories of radioactive waste. Representative cases for study have been chosen from the radioactive waste literature to illustrate the application of the various approaches. This report has been prepared by a team of four le
