Description for Chemical Kinetics & Catalysis
Hardcover. Chemical kinetics involves the rates at which chemical reactions occur and helps explain many natural and mechanical phenomena. For instance, kinetics explains how pharmaceuticals function in a biological system and how pollutants produced by combustion engines are converted for release into the atmosphere. Num Pages: 968 pages, Ill. BIC Classification: PDE; PNRD. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 239 x 165 x 47. Weight in Grams: 1252.
Provides a thorough and up-to-date treatment of chemical kinetics and catalysis, combining traditional background information with the latest computational methods for fitting data to appropriate rate equations. Demonstrates how the vastly improved computational tools now available allow application of kinetic concepts to understanding and predicting the behavior of diverse and complex phenomena, including biological systems, semiconductor growth, and corrosion.
* Contains chapters reviewing of kinetic concepts, introducing kinetics via rate equations and mechanisms, explaining the theory of reaction rates (a section on trajectory calculations to simulate reactions), predicting potential energy surfaces (methods for directing the reaction rate), and discussing ...
