商品簡介
Koretsky (chemical, biological, and environmental engineering; Oregon State U.) presents a textbook for a sophomore or junior undergraduate thermodynamics course for majors in chemical or biological engineering. Such a course is the first time they must grapple with the treatment of equilibrium thermodynamics in detail sufficient enough to solve the wide variety of problems that chemical engineers must tackle. The text is conceptually based, and designed to provide students with a solid foundation that they can retain and build on. Among the topics are measured thermodynamic properties and other basic concepts, entropy and the second law of thermodynamics, equations of state and intermolecular forces, the thermodynamic web, phase equilibria, and chemical reaction equilibria.
