9781334486029: The Elements of Thermal Chemistry (Classic Reprint)

Synopsis

This book provides an in-depth look at thermal chemistry, the science which explores the mutual relations and interactions between chemical and thermal phenomena. The author seeks to explain the principles, methods of investigation, and results in thermal chemistry, with chapters dedicated to topics such as change of energy, chemical change, and the different applications of thermal methods to the study of chemical changes, allotropy, and isomerism. Thermal chemistry consists of two main aspects: a change in the form or distribution of matter and a change in the form or distribution of energy. The author provides a clear and comprehensive analysis of both aspects. This book is an excellent starting point for students or researchers seeking a concise and informative guide to thermal chemistry and its applications.

Présentation de l'éditeur

It is universally acknowledged that a chemical operation presents two aspects to the investigator; it involves a change in the form or distribution of matter, and a change in the form or distribution of energy. The greater number of the chemical text-books pay very little heed to the latter of these changes. Indeed it is only within recent years that any serious attempt has been made to measure the changes of energy which accompany chemical changes of matter. Such measurements, so far as they have yet gone, have been almost wholly confined to determinations of the quantities of heat which enter or leave a chemical system during its passage from one definite state to another. A ny exact applications which can at present be made of the laws of energy to chemical processes must then, for the most part, be based on the results of thermo-chemical investigation. This book-is intended to present a connected account of the methods and results of the most important researches which have been made inT hermal Chemistry. It does not in any way pretend to be an exhaustive treatise on the subject; its object is to deal with principles, and methods of investigation.
