A textbook of physical chemistry : volume 2,. Thermodynamics and chemical equilibrium (SI units) / K. L. Kapoor

OVERVIEW


This book is the second of the 7-volume series, which provides an extensive coverage of Physical Chemistry. Sixth edition of Volume 2 exhaustively describes the Basic Principles of Thermodynamics and Chemical Equilibrium. Latest IUPAC recommendations and SI units have been used throughout the book.


New additions to the sixth edition include: (i) expressions relating inversion temperature and Boyle Temperature, and (ii) the quantitative variations of reduced inversion temperature with reduced pressure of gases based on van der Waals Berthelot, Dieterici and Redlich-Kwong equations of state.




KEY FEATURES
