Download or read book Classical and Geometrical Theory of Chemical and Phase Thermodynamics written by Frank Weinhold and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-02-17 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because it is grounded in math, chemical thermodynamics is often perceived as a difficult subject and many students are never fully comfortable with it. The first authoritative textbook presentation of equilibrium chemical and phase thermodynamics in a reformulated geometrical framework, Chemical and Phase Thermodynamics shows how this famously difficult subject can be accurately expressed with only elementary high-school geometry concepts. Featuring numerous suggestions for research-level extensions, this simplified alternative to standard calculus-based thermodynamics expositions is perfect for undergraduate and beginning graduate students as well as researchers.
