Description for Thermodynamics in Mineral Sciences
Paperback. This book presents the fundamental principles of thermodynamics for geosciences, based on the author's own courses over a number of years. Many examples help to understand how mineralogical problems can be solved by applying thermodynamic principles. Num Pages: 402 pages, 82 black & white illustrations, 23 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: RBGL. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 21. Weight in Grams: 617.
Thermodynamics is an important tool to interpreting the conditions at which natural geomaterial equilibrate. It allows one to determine, for example, the equilibrium pressures and temperatures and the nature and chemical composition of phases - volved mineralogical and petrological processes. Simple chemical model systems, which are often studied in the laboratory in order to understand more complicated natural systems, generally consist of few chemical components. In order to use phase equilibrium results obtained from model systems for interpreting the con- tions of formation of natural geologic materials, extrapolations in compositional space and other P-T conditions are often required. This can ... Read more
