Engineering Chemistry presents the subject with the aim of providing clear and sufficient understanding of chemistry to the students of engineering, as the same is imperative for any successful engineer. Some chapters in the book deal with the basic principles of chemistry while others are focused on its applied aspects, providing the correct interphase between the principles of chemistry and engineering. Besides, subjects-matter of important topics of the Engineering Chemistry have been adequately discussed and amply covered. It has been endeavour of author to present to the Engineering graduate students, as well as their relevant technical applications, in a crisp and easy to understand way. It is the fervent hope of author that this book would serve a useful purpose. Comments for further improvement of this book will be gratefully acknowledged.

Designed for the course on Engineering Chemistry offered to first year undergraduate students of engineering, this book aims to strengthen fundamental concepts and highlight the applications of chemistry in the field of engineering. Written in a simple and lucid manner, this book covers a broad spectrum of topics including water technology, alternate energy resources, science of corrosion and green chemistry. It also includes a large number of end-of-chapter exercises, which test student understanding and are also a valuable resource from the examination point of view.
