Excerpt from A Text-Book of Physical Chemistry Theory and Practice
This book is intended to serve as a laboratory manual, as a text-book to accompany recitations or lectures and as a convenient book of reference. The author has felt the need of such a book in a general course in Physical Chemistry which he has conducted for several years, but has failed to find any single book of this scope. This book has been prepared in the belief that others have felt a similar want.
It is designed for students in American colleges and technical schools who have completed the equivalent of the prescribed Freshman and Sophomore class-room and laboratory courses, in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. A knowledge of the calculus is assumed in many of the theoretical discussions. The value and necessity of the calculus have been so emphasized during recent years that most students of this grade have studied it. The paragraphing has, however, been arranged in such a manner that students unfamiliar with the calculus can omit the portions in which it is employed and assume the results of the omitted discussions or derivations.
The laboratory exercises are chosen with the aim of giving the student a clear understanding of the principles involved in the subjects usually included under the title of Physical Chemistry, and also in certain other subjects in advanced physics, which, though not usually included under this title, are of particular importance to chemists.
Effort has been made to have the experiments more than mere manipulation. Close and careful thinking is required in working up many of the experiments, the results of practically all of which are compared with the results required by the theory immediately preceding. Each experiment is followed by questions designed to stimulate thought upon the principles and applications of the experiment.
