Textbook Of Engineering Chemistry 4th Edition

Due to its simple language, straightforward approach to explaining concepts, and the right kind of examples, this book has established itself as student's companion in almost all leading universities in India. With its authentic text and a large number of questions taken from various university examinations, coupled with regular revisions, the book has served well for more than 20 years now. In the attempt to keep the book aligned with various syllabuses and to reach out to students of more and more universities, more details have been included for the fourth edition, which has been completely recast and reformatted. The book is meant for the first year engineering degree courses of Indian universities. STRENGTH OF THE BOOK • Numerous solved problems • Large number of questions from various universities for exhaustive practice • Boxes featuring important and popular aspects of the topic NEW IN THE FOURTH EDITION • Completely recast and reformatted text • New topics like: Cooling curves for one- and two-component eutectics; Electrode polarization and overvoltage; Decomposition potential; Solar cells; Pitting corrosion; Metallurgy and medicine; Reverse osmosis; Bioengineering.

Any good text book,particularly that in the fast changing fields such as engineering & technology,is not only expected to cater to the current curricular requirments of various institutions but also should provied a glimplse towards the latest developments in the concerned subject and the relevant disciplines.It should guide the periodic review and updating of the curriculum.

The book is revised specifically to address the needs of the latest course curriculum in Engineering Chemistry for the first semester students of all branches of engineering. The topics covered in the book are customarily taught in several universities and institutes. The book exposes students to fundamental knowledge in Water technology • Applications of surface chemistry and concept of nuclear energy and energy storage devices • Alloys and phase rule • Electrochemistry and principle involved in corrosion and its inhibition and protective coatings • Analysis of fuels and combustion KEY FEATURES • Several worked-out examples to help students reinforce their comprehension of theory • Numerous short and descriptive questions at the end of each chapter to test and foster students' conceptual understanding of the subject • Chapter-end problems to help students become proficient in problem solving TARGET AUDIENCE Students of first-year BE/BTech (All Branches)

This updated edition of Gesser’s classic textbook has undergone a full revision and now has the latest material, including new chapters on semiconductors and nanotechnology. It includes a supplementary laboratory section with stepwise experimental protocols.

Enhanced with new problems and applications, the Fourth Edition of CHEMISTRY FOR ENGINEERING STUDENTS provides a concise, thorough, and relevant introduction to chemistry that prepares you for further study in any engineering field. Updated with new conceptual understanding questions and applications specifically geared toward engineering, the book emphasizes the connection between molecular properties and observable physical properties and the connections between chemistry and other subjects such as mathematics and physics.
