| Résumé : |
"The scope of the work and the author's approach can be suggested by an outline of the major topics taken up in the book's 1250 pages. The first 90 are devoted to a quite detailed discussion of kinetic molecular theory, including such topics as transport properties and Brownian motion. The next 100 pages trace the historical development of quantum theory, discusses solutions of the wave equation for oscillation, rotators, and the hydrogen atom, and concludes somewhat abruptly with brief accounts of the Heitler London hydrogen molecule and Sp3 hybridization.
A long chapter on the elements and "aufbau" of the periodic table is followed by a concise presentation of classical thermodynamic essentials in postulatory form (dE = q - w, dS = q/T) without mention either of Carnot or of Carathéodory. The writer then turns to intermolecular forces, partition functions, and statistical thermodynamics for gases of simpler molecules.
The discussion of condensed phases begins with crystals, is interrupted by a chapter on heat capacities, equations of state, and viscosities of gases, then returns to the metallic state and free electron theory. A first chapter on liquids takes up such topics as vapor pressure, viscosity, and theoretical models. A presentation of ideal and dilute solution laws precedes a discussion of van Laar's and other theories plus thermodynamics of partial quantities and activities. A chapter on the ionic state, emphasizing conductance and transference, is followed by a chapter on surface phenomena.
Homogeneous equilibrium is treated by both classical and statistical thermodynamics, and the chapter on heterogeneous equilibria includes phase rule considerations and thermodynamic discussion of galvanic cells.
The last three chapters deal with kinetics of gas reactions, of heterogeneous and photochemical reactions, and of reactions in solution. This part of the book is, as would be expected from Moelwyn-Hughes' contributions in the field, a stimulating and thorough piece of work.
This outline perhaps suggests what reading confirms: that a reader mastering the body of material will have a substantial grounding in theory of physical chemistry. The author carries discussion of many topics very nearly to the level of advanced monographs, and a variety of examples of physical chemical behavior are analyzed in considerable detail." |
