The Thermodynamics of Phase and Reaction Equilibria

The Thermodynamics of Phase and Reaction Equilibria, Second Edition,

provides a sound foundation for understanding abstract concepts of phase and reaction equilibria (e.

g.

, partial molar Gibbs energy, fugacity, and activity), and shows how to apply these concepts to solve practical problems using numerous clear examples.

Available computational software has made it possible for students to tackle realistic and challenging problems from industry.

The second edition incorporates phase equilibrium problems dealing with nonideal mixtures containing more than two components and chemical reaction equilibrium problems involving multiple reactions.

Computations are carried out with the help of Mathcad®.
