Engineering chemistry discusses the fundamental theoretical concepts of chemistry and links them with their engineering applications. This book is designed as an introductory course for undergraduate students in all branches of engineering. Employing an easy-to-learn approach, it elaborates the fundamental concepts and their applications, supplemented by scores of illustrations and learning exercises so as to facilitate comprehension. Beginning with areas of common interest such as fuels, water, corrosion, phase rule and followed by a chapter each on engineering materials, polymers and lubricants, the book discusses a range of important topics like structure and bonding, solid state, liquid crystals, chemical kinetics, surface chemistry, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, spectroscopy, photochemistry, basics of organic chemistry, organometallic compounds, green chemistry, nano-chemistry, environmental science, chemical aspects of bio-technology, analytical techniques in chemistry, the chemistry of carbon and hydrogen compounds, etc.
