Product Description
The new edition of this classic text offers a comprehensive andaccessible introduction to electrochemistry. It assumes a backgroundin chemical thermodynamics and kinetics at the level of a standardundergraduate physical chemistry course, and it is intended for useas a text for a first course in electrochemistry or as a self-studybook for chemists and scientists in related fields. The clear andconcise text is rich with examples from the literature illustratingtheory and electrochemical applications in analytical, organic,inorganic, and organometallic chemistry. Exercises at the end of eachchapter extend and amplify this approach. The book contains extensivereferences to books and monographs, review literature, contemporaryexamples of electrochemical applications and historically importantpapers. Extensive discussion of voltammetric methods includeschronoamperometry, chronopotentiometry, cyclic voltammetry andsteady-state voltammetric methods. Two chapters are devoted toorganic, inorganic and organometallic reactions initiated byoxidation or reduction with electroanalytical methods. Manytechnological applications of thermodynamics are examined, includingbatteries and fuel cells, corrosion, electroplating and other metalfinishing techniques, reduction of ores and purification of metals,and electrochemical production of inorganic and organic chemicals.Many sections in the new edition have been reworked to improve theirclarity and accuracy, and new material has been added onmicroelectrodes, cyclic voltammetry and organic electrosynthesis.

Product Description
The aim of this book is not to provide yet another research monograph but to give advanced undergraduates in physical chemistry an introduction to the principles of electrochemistry. Each chapter ends with a bibliographic section, to enable the reader to follow up areas of particular interest or application. Electrochemical methods themselves are not considered in detail, since these are well covered in the references. Instead, the authors stress modern electrochemical materials, electrolytes, electrodes and non-aqueous electrochemistry in general, as well as up-to-date charge transfer theory and the biological aspects of electrochemistry. This book provides an introduction to the many applications of electrochemistry, not only in chemistry, but also in materials science and biology. ... Read more
