Generalities about the Rates of Chemical Reactions | Irreversible First-Order Reactions | The Temperature Dependence of the Rate Constant: The Arrhenius Formula | Irreversible Second-Order Reactions | Reversible First-Order Reactions | Reversible Second-Order Reactions | Coupled Reactions | An Example of a Complex Reaction: Chain Reactions | Enzyme Kinetics
Description

This is an undergraduate textbook on physical chemistry published as four separate paperback volumes. It combines a thorough presentation of the theoretical and mathematical aspects of the subject with examples and applications drawn from current industrial and academic research and actual experimental data.

The books closely integrate theoretical chemistry teachings with industrial and laboratory practice, providing a realistic grounding for future practicing chemists and engineers. Each volume includes Mathematica workbooks on CD-ROM.
