Thermodynamics and Chemical Equilibrium Dr. Paul C. Ellgen 1.º edición

Thermodynamics and Chemical Equilibrium introduces physical chemistry by developing the principles of chemical equilibrium from the perspectives of chemical kinetics, classical thermodynamics, and statistical thermodynamics. The central objective is to develop the ideas that are necessary to produce the equilibrium-constant expression from each of these perspectives. The emphasis is on the basic ideas that underlie these subjects. The presentation assumes familiarity with the calculus and the basics of chemistry and physics.
