Covering essential areas of thermal physics, this book includes
kinetic theory, classical thermodynamics, and quantum
thermodynamics. The text begins by explaining fundamental concepts
of the kinetic theory of gases, viscosity, conductivity, diffusion,
and the laws of thermodynamics and their applications. It then goes
on to discuss applications of thermodynamics to problems of physics
and engineering. These applications are explained with the help of
P-V and P-S-H diagrams where necessary and are followed by a large
number of solved examples and unsolved exercises. The book includes
a dedicated chapter on the applications of thermodynamics to
chemical reactions. Each application is explained by taking the
example of an appropriate chemical reaction, where all technical
terms are explained and complete mathematical derivations are
worked out in steps starting from the first principle.
