Principles of Physical Chemistry

These pioneers understood the interplay between chemical equiUbrium and reaction kinetics indeed, Haber s research, motivated by the development of a commercial process, helped to spur the development of the principles of physical chemistry that account for the effects of temperature and pressure on chemical equiUbrium and kinetics. The ammonia synthesis reaction is strongly equiUbrium limited. The equiUbrium conversion to ammonia is favored by high pressure and low temperature. Haber therefore recognized that the key to a successful process for making ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen was a catalyst with a high activity to allow operation at low temperatures where the equiUbrium is relatively favorable.

The series is intended for the advanced student, the teacher, and the active researcher. A background of the basic knowledge in the field of stereochemistry is assumed. Each chapter is written by an expert in the field and, hopefully, covers its subject in depth. We have tried to choose topics of fundamental importance aimed primarily at an audience of inorganic and organic chemists but involved frequently with basic principles of physical chemistry and molecular physics, and dealing also with certain stereochemical aspects of biochemistry.

The slowdown toward zero of the thought experiment current described at the end of the last section clearly won t do, and something has been left out of the thoughts that led to it. One of the principles of physical chemistry is called the principle of microscopic reversibility. Put in a simple but correct way, it states that something that happens in one direction will also happen in the other direction along the same path. What we have been looking at in the last section could be written as... 

References to the literature. References to the original data are given in the text, as Washburn.2 The exact citation can then be found in the list of references, which are given in alphabetical (and numerical) order, as Washburn,2 Bur. Standards J. Research 10, 525 (1933), where the numerals indicate, respectively, the volume, page, and year. The abbreviations used for the titles of the periodicals are those adopted as standard by the International Union of Chemistry (See, for example, Chemical Abstracts List of Periodicals Abstracted ). When the citation is that of a book, it is written as Washburn, Introduction to the Principles of Physical Chemistry, McGraw-Hill Book Co., New York (1921), where the title is in quotation marks, and then in order follow the name of the publisher, the place of publication, and, in parentheses, the year of publication. If the book citation includes volume and page numbers, these follow immediately after the title. 

The subject matter is, in general, approached from a fundamental angle, and the reader is assumed to possess a knowledge of the basic principles of physical chemistry. Opportunities have also been taken to describe many of the practical applications of this subject. In addition, some numerical problems (with answers) and a list of references for further reading (mainly books and review articles) are given at the end of the book.

There is much in favor of the assumption that in the ideal case the molecules of a solute behave in an inert solvent as if they were gas molecules. This is the simplest and most useful assumption. It receives support from the well established principles of physical chemistry according to which osmotic pressure, vapor pressure, and related phenomena in dilute solutions are calculated by means of the simple gas laws.

The analysis of real biological systems may be introduced in idealized simplifications using the principles of physics, chemistry, biology, thermodynamics, and kinetics. The following examples are the simple application of these principles in describing some biological processes. 

Ionic liquids are salts that melt at ambient temperature. The principles of physical chemistry involved in the great difference between solution properties of molecular solvents and molten salts have already been introduced and summarized in a number of books. Thousands of papers have already been published on their outstanding characteristics and effectiveness for a variety of fields. Thus, as was mentioned above, in this book we take the most important point that these ionic salts are composed of organic ions and explore the unhmited possibility of creating extraordinary materials using molten salts.
