Description

Physical Chemistry focuses on the study of phenomena related to chemical systems at macroscopic, subatomic, atomic, and particulate levels. Its main focus is on applying principles, concepts, and practices of physics to understand chemical systems. Key areas of focus include motion, energy, force, time, thermodynamics, chemical equilibrium, quantum chemistry, analytical dynamics and statistical mechanics. Within physical chemistry, prominent sub-disciplines include chemical kinetics, quantum chemistry, spectroscopy, and chemical thermodynamics. The field also encompasses the study of surface science, electrochemistry of cell membranes, the impact of reaction kinetics on reaction rates, and intermolecular forces influencing the physical properties of materials. This book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of physical chemistry. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, it makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.
