The Bases of Chemical Thermodynamics: Vol 2 - Softcover

This second volume of a two-volume set develops the tools necessary to study and understand systems in which chemical reactions can take place, and establishes criteria for chemical equilibrium. For complex systems, the number of independent reactions and their nature are determined systematically; the effect of external factors on chemical equilibria is analyzed and illustrated; the formalism necessary to study ideal and real solutions is provided; and various standard states in use and the corresponding activity coefficients are defined. The volume includes problems and solutions.
