By Arthur A. Noyes 



Director of the Gates Chemical Laboratory 



of the California Institute of Technology 



AND 



Miles S. Sherrill 



Associate Professor of Theoretical Chemistry 

 in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology 



The topics considered are those usually studied in a college 

 course in physical chemistry. The authors have adopted a new 

 educational method in presenting the quantitative aspects of the 

 laws and theories of chemistry. The course has been gradually 

 developed through many years of experience, with classes for whose 

 use numeroiis editions, repeatedly revised and extended, have been 

 priaited, but not previously published. The book is intended for 

 juniors, seniors. Or graduate students in colleges, universities, and 

 engineering schools, who expect to pursue a professional career in 

 chemical research, iir teaching, or in industrial fields of chemistry. 

 The authors are not interested in teaching principles of chemistry 

 as such, but rather in teaching the student how to apply the prin- 

 ciples to actual problems in later work. The problems, interspersed 

 in the text itself, are not merely supplementary or incidental ; they 

 are the feature about which the whole presentation centers. 



In order to keep the book within the limits of an vmdergraduate 

 course, the subjects treated have been carefully selected. The book 

 comprises mainly a development of the atomic, molecular, kinetic, 

 and ionic theories through a consideration of the physical properties 

 directly related to them ; and, with the aid of these theories, the 

 mass-action law, phase diagrams and thermo-dynamics, a treat- 

 ment of the principles relating to the rate and equilibrium of chemi- 

 cal reactions.
