Thermodynamics for chemists
PREFACE
The object of the present book is to provide an introduction to the principles and applications of thermodynamics for students of chemistry and chemical engineering. All too often it appears that such students tend to regard the subject as an academic and burdensome discipline, only to discover at a later date that it is a highly important tool of great prac tical value. The writers purpose has been to explain the general structure of thermodynamics, and to give some indication of how it may be used to yield results having a direct bearing on the work of the chemist. More than one hundred illustrative numerical problems are worked out in the text, and a total of about three hundred and sixty exercises of a variety of types have been included for solution by the reader. In the hope of imparting the whole subject with an aspect of reality, much of the material for this purpose has been taken from the chemical literature, to which references are given. In order to economize space, and at the same time to test the readers grasp of thermodynamics, the derivations of a number of interesting results have been set as exercises.
To this extent, at least, the exercises are to be considered as part of the text, although their solution should in any event be regarded as essential to any adequate course in chemical thermodynamics. In treating the various topics in this book the particular method employed has been determined in each case by considerations of simplicity, usefulness and logical development. In some instances the classical, his torical approach has been preferred, but in others the discussion follows more modern lines. Whenever feasible the generalized procedures, involving reduced temperatures and pressures, which have been evolved in recent years chiefly by chemical engineers, are introduced. As regards statistical methods, the author feels that the time has come for them to take their place as an essential part of chemical thermodynamics
