Description
Mathematics for Physical Chemistry, Third Edition, is the ideal text for students and physical chemists who want to sharpen
their mathematics skills. It can help prepare the reader for an undergraduate course, serve as a supplementary text for use during a
course, or serve as a reference for graduate students and practicing chemists. The text concentrates on applications instead of theory,
and, although the emphasis is on physical chemistry, it can also be useful in general chemistry courses.
The Third Edition includes
new exercises in each chapter that provide practice in a technique immediately after discussion or example and encourage self-study.
The first ten chapters are constructed around a sequence of mathematical topics, with a gradual progression into more advanced material.
The final chapter discusses mathematical topics needed in the analysis of experimental data.
Audience:
New chemistry researchers and students in undergraduate and graduate programs, covering general through physical chemistry courses; especially students in honors chemistry courses.
