Book Description

This is the revised, extended, up-to-date third edition of the acclaimed reference book 'Thermochemical Data of Pure Substances'. The introductory section discusses thermodynamic theory and applications concisely and explains how best to use the tables; it has also been expanded to refer to ores, coal, waste and residues. Researched and arranged with meticulous care, it contains comprehensive thermodynamic data tables for over 2500 pure substances in different phases, over 230 of which are organic. The renowned clarity of the tables and the wealth of valuable information contained therein guarantees the high standard of this celebrated work. 'This is undoubtedly one of the most extensive sets of data available, covering a remarkable number of compounds...listing values for all of the thermodynamic variables over the entire range of temperatures considered.' Faraday Transactions 'The introduction is intended as a support for those not well- versed in chemical thermodynamics, but, by providing worked examples, also helps those more adept to brush up forgotten basics.'
