This thoroughly revised book, now in its second edition, continues to present the fundamental principles and applications of chemistry in engineering and technology. The text provides extensive discussions on electrochemistry, polymers, corrosion, fuel combustion and water treatment—with emphasis on topics of interest in engineering. The inclusion of several new topics strengthens the text further. The revised edition covers topics that are customarily taught in various universities and institutes.
The book is primarily designed for the first-year undergraduate students for their course in Engineering Chemistry.
New to the Second Edition :
•Includes a new chapter on Phase Rule.
•Provides new topics on titration of a weak acid against a strong base, a strong acid against a weak base and a weak acid against a weak base; biofuels; manufacture of plastics by various techniques; Kevlar and silicone rubber.
•Gives multiple choice questions with answers at the end of each chapter.
•Provides two sets of Model Question Papers in addition to several years’ University Question Papers.
