Basic Physical Chemistry for the Atmospheric Sciences (Paperback)

Modern studies of the atmosphere, oceans, and earth and planetary systems demand a sound knowledge of basic chemical principles. This book provides a clear, concise review of these principles, particularly relating to the atmosphere. It covers the fundamental concepts of chemical equilibria, chemical thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, solution chemistry, acid and base chemistry, oxidation-reduction reactions and photochemistry. The book is particularly strong at relating basic chemistry to environmental issues, for instance, acid rain and the stratospheric ozone hole. Over 160 exercises are contained within the text, along with hints and solutions and a series of appendices including much-used chemical data. Whether used in an introductory course in chemistry or for self instruction as a supplementary work book, this will be an invaluable resource for a broad range of students.
