Focusing on the fundamentals of general analytical chemistry in aqueous solutions, this book emphasizes often-overlooked principles rather than instrumental or separation methods. It provides detailed explanations of the chemical and physical principles underlying various chemical analysis operations. After establishing these foundational concepts, the text includes numerous practical examples of applications, enhancing the reader's understanding and ability to apply the principles in real-world scenarios.

Focusing on quantitative electrochemical analysis, this book provides a comprehensive theoretical foundation for various methods used in solution. It includes numerous examples that span a diverse array of analytical types, making complex concepts accessible and applicable for readers interested in electrochemistry.

Focusing on essential concepts in biochemistry and bioenergetics, the book explores biochemical reactions through the lens of thermodynamics and chemical kinetics. It delves into key topics such as enzymes, Gibbs energy, and entropy, while distinguishing between exergonic and endergonic reactions. This comprehensive approach equips students with a solid foundation in the principles that govern biological processes and energy transformations.

This book provides deep insight into the physical quantity known as chemical activity. The author probes deep into classical thermodynamics in Part I, and then into statistical thermodynamics in Part II, to provide the necessary background. The treatment has been streamlined by placing some background material in appendices. Chemical Activity is of interest not only to those in chemical thermodynamics, but also to chemical engineers working with mass transfer and its applications - for example, separation methods.
