Thermodynamics and information touch theory every facet of
chemistry. However, the physical chemistry curriculum digested by
students worldwide is still heavily skewed toward heat/work
principles established more than a century ago. Rectifying this
situation, Chemical Thermodynamics and Information Theory with
Applications explores applications drawn from the intersection of
thermodynamics and information theory-two mature and far-reaching
fields. In an approach that intertwines information science and
chemistry, this book covers: The informational aspects of
thermodynamic state equations The algorithmic aspects of
transformations-compression, expansion, cyclic, and more The
principles of best-practice programming How molecules transmit and
modify information via collisions and chemical reactions Using
examples from physical and organic chemistry, this book
demonstrates how the disciplines of thermodynamics and information
theory are intertwined. Accessible to curiosity-driven chemists
with knowledge of basic calculus, probability, and statistics, the
book provides a fresh perspective on time-honored subjects such as
state transformations, heat and work exchanges, and chemical
reactions.
