This concise set of notes by IITM
Murthal provides insight into applied chemistry, from essential topics such as
electrochemistry, types of electrolytes, and the principles that govern
oxidation and reduction, leading up to Faraday's laws of electrolysis and the
industrial applications of electrolysis, which is exactly why this can prove so
useful for interested students with a bent towards practical application in
industry. Notes on fuels, lubricants, polymers, and plastics round out the
treatment, giving a fuller appreciation of how chemistry interacts with everyday
materials. It is written for the engineering student, preparing them to apply
chemical principles in a variety of engineering environments.
It is a treasure of comprehensive
information put together by Bharath Institute of Science and Technology, for
students pursuing a career in engineering studies. It deals with all the major
issues: water technology, polymers, electrochemistry, corrosion and control and
ways to nonconventional energy sources. The course content is designed to
clearly depict the practical applications of chemistry in engineering contexts.
This resource will be designed with concise explanations and relevant examples
to enhance students' understanding of chemical principles and their preparation
to face challenges both in the academic and professional spheres.
