Description for Classical and Geometrical Theory of Chemical and Phase Thermodynamics
Hardcover. Because it is grounded in math, chemical thermodynamics is often perceived as a difficult subject and many students are never fully comfortable with it. Num Pages: 490 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PNRW; TGMB. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 258 x 187 x 30. Weight in Grams: 996.
Because it is grounded in math, chemical thermodynamics is often perceived as a difficult subject and many students are never fully comfortable with it. The first authoritative textbook presentation of equilibrium chemical and phase thermodynamics in a reformulated geometrical framework, Chemical and Phase Thermodynamics shows how this famously difficult subject can be accurately expressed with only elementary high-school geometry concepts. Featuring numerous suggestions for research-level extensions, this simplified alternative to standard calculus-based thermodynamics expositions is perfect for undergraduate and beginning graduate students as well as researchers.
