Description
Book SynopsisThe statistical mechanical theory of liquids and solutions is a fundamental area of physical sciences with important implications in other fields of science and industrial applications. Statistical Mechanics of Liquids and Solutions: Intermolecular Forces, Structure and Surface Interactions is the second in a series of two on this subject. While the first volume introduced equilibrium statistical mechanics in general and statistical mechanics of liquids and solutions at an introductory level, the present volume presents an advanced treatment of the subject and penetrates much deeper into liquid state theory.
A major theme in both books is the intimate relationship between forces in a fluid and the fluid structure - a relationship that is paramount for the understanding of the subject of interactions in dense fluids. Using this microscopic, molecular approach, the text emphasizes clarity of physical explanations for phenomena and mechanisms relevant to fluids, addressing
