Concise Chemical Thermodynamics, 2nd Edition
This text provides an introduction to chemical thermodynamics, perceived by many chemistry students as a difficult topic. It presents thermodynamics with practical chemical examples using little mathematics. It includes discussions of experimental equilibrium data, an introduction to electrochemistry, a brief survey of Ellingham diagrams and a treatment of entropy without reference to the Carnot cycle.
