Evolved from McQuarrie and Simon's best-sellingtextbook, Physical Chemistry: A Molecular Approach, thistext focuses in on the thermodynamics portion of the course. Although many of the chapters in MolecularThermodynamics are similar to chapters in the larger physical chemistry text, new material has been added throughoutalong with three entirely new chapters on "The Energy Levels of Atoms andMolecules," "Thermodynamics of Electrochemical Cells," and"Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics." The text also includes fiveshort "MathChapters," each with a special set ofproblems that will help students review and summarize themathematical tools required to master the material. Workedexamples and chapter-ending problems with solutions are alsoincluded throughout the book.
