The Elements Of Thermal Chemistry (1885) - Matthew Moncrieff Pattison Muir - Bog

The Elements of Thermal Chemistry is a book written by Matthew Moncrieff Pattison Muir in 1885. It is a comprehensive guide to the principles and applications of thermal chemistry, which is the study of the relationship between heat and chemical reactions. The book is divided into three parts, each covering a different aspect of thermal chemistry. The first part deals with the basic principles of thermodynamics, including the laws of thermodynamics, heat capacity, and the measurement of heat. The second part focuses on the applications of thermal chemistry, including the use of heat in chemical reactions, the thermodynamics of solutions, and the study of combustion. The third part covers the practical applications of thermal chemistry, including the use of heat in industrial processes, the production of energy from fossil fuels, and the use of heat in metallurgy.Throughout the book, Muir provides detailed explanations of the concepts and theories of thermal chemistry, using examples and illustrations to make the material more accessible to readers. He also includes numerous exercises and problems to help readers test their understanding of the material. Overall, The Elements of Thermal Chemistry is a valuable resource for students and professionals in the fields of chemistry, physics, and engineering who are interested in the principles and applications of thermal chemistry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
