Book Description

By the time chemistry students are ready to study physical chemistry, they’ve completed mathematics courses through calculus. But a strong background in mathematics doesn’t necessarily equate to knowledge of how to apply that mathematics to solving physicochemical problems. In addition, in-depth understanding of modern concepts in physical chemistry requires knowledge of mathematical concepts and techniques beyond introductory calculus, such as differential equations, Fourier series, and Fourier transforms. This results in many physical chemistry instructors spending valuable lecture time teaching mathematics rather than chemistry.

Barrante presents both basic and advanced mathematical techniques in the context of how they apply to physical chemistry. Many problems at the end of each chapter test students’ mathematical knowledge. Designed and priced to accompany traditional core textbooks in physical chemistry, Applied Mathematics for Physical Chemistry 3rd Edition provides students with the tools essential for answering questions in thermodynamics, atomic/molecular structure, spectroscopy, and statistical mechanics.

Editorial Reviews

Review

“As a physical chemistry instructor, for years I have found this book to be very useful. Many times, other than teaching physical chemistry concepts I had to first teach math. Now with this book, students can get on board a little easier. It is also perfect for a math review at the beginning of the semester.” –Jiangyue Zhang, Immaculate University

“A well-written textbook. Its size is unintimidating and it reads like a novel. Students often complain that chemistry books are so big and heavy. This is a must-have book for chemistry majors and libraries.” –Allen Ahoparadze, College of St. Scholastica

“Very inclusive and covers all the essentials for the study of Physical Chemistry I and II.” –Yirong Mo, Western Michigan University
