505 _aThe language of physical science; chemical thermodynamics - the Zeroth law of thermodynamics, statistical basis of entropy, free energy functions, first, second and third law; phase equilibriua, solutions and mixtures; reaction kinetics - Arrhenius equation and activation energy, theory of unimolecular reactions, atomic and free radical processes; ions in solution; electrode proceses - conventions relating to galvanic cells, concentration cells; surface chemistry and colloids; molecular structure Lambert-Beer law, Heisenberg uncertainty principle, Schrodinger equation, mocrowave spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, visible and ultraviolet spectroscopy.
520 _aThis study is aimed at first year chemistry undergraduates. It aims to cover all the core topiccs taught at this level through concise summarie of the essential facts and examples explaining the application of theory. DR H.E.Avery is author of "Basic Reaction Kinetics and Mechanisms". The system reinforces students knowledge with worked examples of actual and typical examination questions which are answered fully in the text with hints on how to tackle particular problems. Topics covered include chemical thermodynamics, phase equilibrium, solutions and mixtures, ions in solution, electrode processes, molecular structure, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle and the Schrodinger equation.
