ABSTRACT

Designed specifically for a two-semester introductory course sequence in physical chemistry, this text presents core principles and topics. Straightforward and streamlined, it presents the necessary amount of detail for comprehension. Organized in such a way that the various topics covered are connected to each other, it allows students to see physical chemistry as an interconnected discipline and not a series of unrelated concepts. Each chapter in this new edition has been thoroughly updated and includes new information on computational applications, more end-of-chapter problems, and new chapters on nanotechnology and surface chemistry
