Download or read book Chemical Calculations at a Glance written by Paul Yates and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-02-05 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is now possible to enter a chemistry degree course at many UKuniversities without any formal maths training beyond age 16.Addressing this deficiency requires students to take additionalmathematics training when entering university, yet the relevance ofmaths to chemistry is often poorly appreciated by chemistrystudents. In addition, many service courses are either tooabstract, or aimed at physicists and engineers, for students ofchemistry, who are not inclined to study mathematical techniquesper se and do not make the connection between the maths theyare taught and the chemistry they want to study. Based on the successful at a Glance approach, withintegrated double page presentations explaining the mathematicsrequired by undergraduate students of chemistry, set in context bydetailed chemical examples, this book will be indispensable to allstudents of chemistry. By bringing the material together in thisway the student is shown how to apply the maths and how it relatesto familiar concepts in chemistry. By including problems (withanswers) on each presentation, the student is encouraged topractice both the mathematical manipulations and the application toproblems in chemistry. More detailed chemical problems at the endof each topic illustrate the range of chemistry to which the mathsis relevant and help the student acquire sufficient confidence toapply it when necessary.
