This textbook presents the foundations of electrochemistry, necessary to understand chemical power sources like batteries, hydrogen production, and corrosion protection. It is a systematic presentation from theory to practice, outlining concepts, formulas, and research methods.
This novel, precise and concise text-book presents the foundations of electrochemistry, which is more a physical science than a chemical one. Familiarity with this topic is necessary to understand such areas as chemical power sources (Li-ion and other batteries), production of hydrogen, oxygen and other substances, application of metal coatings, manufacture of foils and nanomaterials, corrosion protection. All this is connected with the passage of electric current through solutions and with the electromotive forces.
This book is a systematic presentation of all aspects of electrochemistry from theoretical foundations to practical use. It outlines the most important concepts and provides a derivation of the basic formulas. Electrochemical methods of research are described in detail. The book largely focuses on the electrochemistry of metals, which is especially convenient to explain the most important concepts.
The addressees of this textbook are students of physical, technical and chemical specialities, researchers using electrochemical methods, employees in electrochemical industries, teachers wanting to improve their knowledge in these topics. It can be used by the readers without formal training; the mathematics and physics here demand the level corresponding to the first course of a technical university.
Most chemists have little understanding of crystallography. This book provides a basic, non-mathematical education on crystallographic methods, written in language chemists use. It is designed for students and any chemist who has had no instruction in the subject.
When the spherical molecule C60 was discovered in 1985, a science journalist did more than just report the news. He linked the glamorous discovery to the world of soot science, contriving a spectacular argument between scientists to promote the discoverers’ claim to fame.
This entry-level textbook prepares college students for advanced science courses by bridging the gap from high school chemistry. It emphasizes the history of the discipline to create a storyline, showing how modern chemical vocabulary makes sense only in the light of history.
This multidisciplinary volume presents new research in archaeological chemistry, applying chemical techniques to study the material remains of past cultures. It shows how the field combines analytical chemistry, history, and materials science to better understand our past.
This book describes fundamental mechanisms and catalytic pathways of key enzymes like cytochromes P450 and kinases. Learn to solve kinetic and mechanistic problems and confidently present your results in high-impact journals, even without significant previous experience.
Heterogeneous catalysis is founded on solid state chemistry, but the relationship is often elusive. This book provides insights into solid state chemistry to widen the vision of catalysis, covering structure, bonding, and defects and their implications.
This book sums up over half a century of research in derivative spectroscopy. For the first time, it offers the big picture of all spectroscopic and non-spectroscopic derivative methods, with reproducible calculations, serving as a practical guide for researchers and students.
Organic synthesis rarely goes to plan. To fight meagre yields and side reactions, you need to master reaction mechanisms. This book moves you from knowing the simple steps of an undergraduate degree to envisioning the convoluted mechanisms needed in professional practice.
This is the first book to form the big picture of all data analytics methods in spectroscopy. Its rigorous mathematical basis, in-depth descriptions, numerous examples, and reproducible calculations make it a valuable guide for practitioners, students, and lecturers.
This textbook is an introduction to modern physical chemistry, with an emphasis on the core ideas of the science. Concise yet rigorous, it provides sufficient material to solve key problems. For students, researchers, and professionals in chemistry, physics, and engineering.
