Chemical Thermodynamics : CRC Press : 9780367222475 : 0367222477 : 11 Nov 2019 : "This book develops the theory of chemical thermodynamics from first principles, demonstrates its relevance across scientific and engineering disciplines, and shows how thermodynamics can be used as a practical tool for understanding natural phenomenon and developing and improving technologies and products. Concepts such as internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs energy are explained using ideas and experiences familiar to students and arealistic examples are given so the usefulness and pervasiveness of thermodynamics becomes apparent. The worked examples illustrate key ideas and demonstrate important types of calculations, and the problems at the end of chapters are designed to reinforce important concepts and show the broad range of applications.Most can be solved using digitized data from open access databases and a spreadsheet. Answers are provided for the numerical problems. A particular theme o
