Textbook of Physical Chemistry

Physical Chemistry Alberto Otero de la Roza

This text follows the mainstream core principles of physical chemistry in a way that highlights statistical thermodynamics with its applications. Starting with the thermodynamics of ideal gases, it leads to the kinetic theory of gases and detailed molecular behavior descriptions. The text also enters the domain of chemical kinetics, describing reaction rates as they relate to many variables. The book explores surface adsorption and transport phenomena, aiding in the illustration of the comprehension of molecules in the behavior at the interface and in motion. The book on physical chemistry was created for higher class students. The book is a very rigorous approach to physical chemistry with clear explanations and practical insights into molecular dynamics and thermodynamic principles.

Physical Chemistry By Uttarakhand Open University

This is a very broad textbook since it focuses on teaching various topics in physical chemistry, including chemical thermodynamics and equilibrium. It goes through the concepts involved in entropy, phase equilibrium, ionic equilibrium, and surface chemistry. These all help towards setting a good basis for physical principles that drive chemical reaction. The book also covers electrochemistry with a very detailed look at electrochemical processes and their applications. The text can also be considered a master resource for undergraduates and graduate students studying chemistry. It has clearly explained the fundamental ideas of physical chemistry.
