Download or read book Physical Chemistry Essentials written by Andreas Hofmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-17 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook covers the fundamentals of physical chemistry, explaining the concepts in an accessible way and guiding the readers in a step-by-step manner. The contents are broadly divided into two sections: the classical physico-chemical topics (thermodynamics, kinetics, electrochemistry, transport, and catalysis), and the fabric of matter and its interactions with radiation. Particular care has been taken in the presentation of the algebraic parts of physico-chemical concepts, so that the readers can easily follow the explanations and re-work relevant discussion and derivations with pen and paper. The book is accompanied by a rich mathematical appendix. Each chapter includes a selection of (numerical) exercises and problems, so that students can practice and apply the learned topics. An appendix with solutions allows for controlling the learning success. Carefully prepared illustrative color images make this book a great support for teaching physical chemistry to undergraduate students.This textbook mainly addresses undergraduate students in life sciences, biochemistry or engineering, offering them a comprehensive and comprehensible introduction for their studies of physical chemistry. It will also appeal to undergraduate chemistry students as an accessible introduction for their physical chemistry studies.

Download or read book Physics and Chemistry of Graphene written by Toshiaki Enoki and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-01-24 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a chemistry aspect, graphene is the extrapolated extreme of condensed polycyclic hydrocarbon molecules to infinite size. Here, the concept on aromaticity which organic chemists utilize is applicable. Interesting issues appearing between physics and chemistry are pronounced in nano-sized graphene (nanographene), as we recognize the importance of the shape of nanographene in understanding its electronic structure. In this book, the fundamental issues on the electronic, magnetic, and chemical properties of condensed polycyclic hyodrocarbon molecules, nanographene and graphene are comprehensively discussed.

Download or read book World Economic Development written by Molly Malloy Cooper and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The anthology World Economic Development features readings on major topics in the subject matter. The book provides analysis of critical events starting with the shift from hunting and gathering to agricultural settlements, and it addresses subsequent economic events through the Industrial Revolution and beyond. It opens with a discussion of differences in economic development and an exploration of why the whole world is not economically developed. Through the seven chapters that follow, students learn about the economic impact of the Neolithic transformation, civilization's origins in Mesopotamia and Egypt, the economics of ancient empires, and the late Roman economy. They also study the differing causes of serfdom and slavery, the First and Second Industrial Revolutions, and the 1929 Stock Market Crash and subsequent Great Depression. Taken together, the reading selections in World Economic Development make the case that economics is a driving force in history and that economic progress is an integral component in progress of all kinds. World Economic Development is designed for courses in the field, those addressing the history of economic development, and classes in international studies. Molly Malloy Cooper earned her Ph.D. in economics at Ohio State University, where she is now a Senior Lecturer of economics. Dr. Cooper's current areas of research include economic history, the economics of immigration, and racial wage gaps. In addition to her work with Ohio State University, Dr. Cooper has taught at Denison University and Ohio Dominican University. Her courses offerings have included classes on current economic issues and gender in labor markets. Dr. Cooper has also developed new courses such as Freakonomics, which is based on the best-selling books by Stephen Levitt and Stephen Dubner."
