Principles of Physical Chemistry, 2nd Edition

Chemical equilibria and reactions chapters are enhanced with a more molecular and statistical perspective

Chapter 21 on kinetics has been expanded to underscore the importance of potential energy (or free energy) curves in view of reaction kinetics and to make important connections to modern studies in electron transfer reactions, 'femtochemistry', and reaction dynamics

Discussion of solids and nanoscale materials (quantum dots, nanotubes, etc).

the 'Problems' (worked examples) have been integrated into each chapter, rather than presented at the end of the chapter

A set of problems to be worked by the student will be presented at the end of each chapter (solutions will be provided in a separate format)

Provides students with computer exercises, using MathCAD modules in which the student can change the parameters and observe how the system changes
