Publisher's Synopsis
A revised edition of the original text, this handbook reviews thebasic principles of physical chemistry, linear algebra, andstatistics which are necessary to determine material and energybalances. Chapter topics include: Dimensions, Units, and ConversionFactors; Stoichiometry; Sampling and Measurements; MaterialBalances; Thermochemistry; and Energy Balances. In addition, threeappendices covering basic properties of matrices; graphic andtabular enthalpy data for 65 elements (their oxides, halides,carbides, and nitrides); and a bibliography of related referencematerial.
This is a valuable textbook not just for students, but also forpracticing engineers looking for a refresher text in this importantarea.
