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.
Lecture notes prepared
by Mr. M Praveen for the lectures meant to give engineering students based in
different fields of engineering foundational principles of chemistry. The key
topics that are covered in this course include electrochemistry, batteries,
corrosion control, and water technology, which cover the basic chemical aspects
of all these. This material deals with the chemistry of materials, fuels, and
combustion, giving the student background knowledge to apply chemical concepts
effectively. These notes will make studying easier for students, and with clear
explanations as well as practical applications, the feeling about how chemistry
plays into everyday engineering practices and innovations will grow even
bigger.
