Most physical chemistry texts follow a formula for covering the major top-
ics: 1/3 thermodynamics, 1/3 quantum mechanics, and 1/3 statistical thermo-
dynamics, kinetics, and various other topics. This text follows that general for-
mula. The section on thermodynamics starts with gases and ends in electro-
chemistry, which is a fairly standard range of topics. The eight-chapter section
on quantum mechanics and its applications to atoms and molecules starts on a
more historical note. In my experience, students have little or no idea of why
quantum mechanics was developed, and consequently they never recognize its
importance, conclusions, or even its necessity. Therefore, Chapter 9 focuses on
pre-quantum mechanics so students can develop an understanding of the state
of classical science and how it could not explain the universe. This leads into an
introduction to quantum mechanics and how it provides a useful model.
Several chapters of symmetry and spectroscopy follow. In the last six chapters,
this text covers statistical thermodynamics (intentionally not integrated with
phenomenological thermodynamics), kinetic theory, kinetics, crystals, and sur-
faces. The text does not have separate chapters on photochemistry, liquids,
molecular beams, thermal physics, polymers, and so on (although these topics
may be mentioned throughout the text). This is not because I find these topics
unimportant; I simply do not think that they must be included in an under-
graduate physical chemistry textbook.
Each chapter opens with a synopsis of what the chapter will cover. In other
texts, the student reads along blindly, not knowing where all the derivations and
equations are leading. Indeed, other texts have a summary at the end of the
chapters. In this text, a summary is given at the beginning of the chapter so the
students can see where they are going and why. Numerous examples are
sprinkled throughout all of the chapters, and there is an emphasis on the units
in a problem, which are just as important as the numbers.
Exercises at the end of each chapter are separated by section so the student
can better coordinate the chapter material with the problem. There are over
1000 end-of-chapter exercises to give students an opportunity to practice the
concepts from the text. Although some mathematical derivations are included
in the exercises, the emphasis is on exercises that make the students use the con-
cepts, rather than just derive them. This, too, has been intentional on my part.
Many answers to the exercises are included in an answer section at the back of
the book. There are also end-of-chapter exercises that require symbolic mathe-
matics software like MathCad or Maple (or even a high-level calculator), to
practice some manipulations of the concepts. Only a few per chapter, they
require more advanced skills and can be used as group assignments.
For a school on the quarter system, the material in physical chemistry almost
naturally separates itself into three sections: thermodynamics (Chapters 1–8),
quantum mechanics (Chapters 9–16), and other topics (Chapters 17–22). For
a school on the semester system, instructors might want to consider pairing the
thermodynamics chapters with the later chapters on kinetic theory (Chapter
19) and kinetics (Chapter 20) in the first term, and including Chapters 17 and
18 (statistical thermodynamics) and Chapters 21 and 22 (crystalline solids and
surfaces) with the quantum mechanics chapters in the second term.
Professors: For a year-long sequence, you should be able to cover the entire
book (and feel free to supplement with special topics as you see fit).
Students: For a year-long sequence, you should be able to read the entire
book. You, too, can do it.
If you want an encyclopedia of physical chemistry, this is not the book for
you. Other well-known books will serve that need. My hope is that students and
teachers alike will appreciate this as a textbook of physical chemistry.

Acknowledgments

No project of this magnitude is the effort of one person. Chris Conti, a former
editor for West Publishing, was enthusiastic about my ideas for this project long
before anything was written down. His expressions of enthusiasm and moral
support carried me through long periods of indecision. Lisa Moller and Harvey
Pantzis, with the help of Beth Wilbur, got this project rolling at Brooks/Cole.
They moved on to other things soon after I started, but I was fortunate to get
Keith Dodson to serve as developmental editor. His input, guidance, and sug-
gestions were appreciated. Nancy Conti helped with all the paper-shuffling and
reviewing, and Marcus Boggs and Emily Levitan were there to see this project
to its final production. I am in awe of the talents of Robin Lockwood (produc-
tion editor), Anita Wagner (copy editor), and Linda Rill (photo editor). They
made me feel as if I were the weakest link on the team (perhaps as it should be).
There are undoubtedly many others at Brooks/Cole who are leaving their
indelible mark on this text. Thanks to everyone for their assistance.
At various stages in its preparation, the entire manuscript was class-tested by
students in several physical chemistry offerings at my university. Their feedback
was crucial to this project, since you don’t know how good a book is until you
actually use it. Use of the manuscript wasn’t entirely voluntary on their part
(although they could have taken the course from some other instructor), but
most of the students took on the task in good spirits and provided some valu-
able comments. They have my thanks: David Anthony, Larry Brown, Robert
Coffman, Samer Dashi, Ruot Duany, Jim Eaton, Gianina Garcia, Carolyn Hess,
Gretchen Hung, Ed Juristy, Teresa Klun, Dawn Noss, Cengiz Ozkose, Andrea
Paulson, Aniko Prisko, Anjeannet Quint, Doug Ratka, Mark Rowitz, Yolanda
Sabur, Prabhjot Sahota, Brian Schindly, Lynne Shiban, Tony Sinito, Yelena
Vayner, Scott Wisniewski, Noelle Wojciechowicz, Zhiping Wu, and Steve
Zamborsky. I would like to single out the efforts of Linnea Baudhuin, a student who
performed one of the more comprehensive evaluations of the entire manuscript.
I would like to thank my faculty colleagues Tom Flechtner, Earl Mortensen,
Bob Towns, and Yan Xu for their support. One regret is that my late colleague
John Luoma, who read several parts of the manuscript and made some very
helpful suggestions, did not see this project to its end. My appreciation also goes
to the College of Arts and Science, Cleveland State University, for support of a
two-quarter sabbatical during which I was able to make substantial progress on
this project.
External reviewers gave feedback at several stages. I might not have always
followed their suggestions, but their constructive criticism was appreciated.
Thanks to:

UCH OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY CAN BE PRESENTED IN A
DEVELOPMENTAL MANNER: one can grasp the easy ideas first and
then progress to the more challenging ideas, which is similar to how these
ideas were developed in the first place. Two of the major topics of physical
chemistry—thermodynamics and quantum mechanics—lend themselves nat-
urally to this approach.
In this first chapter on physical chemistry, we revisit a simple idea from gen-
eral chemistry: gas laws. Gas laws—straightforward mathematical expressions
that relate the observable properties of gases—were among the first quantifi-
cations of chemistry, dating from the 1600s, a time when the ideas of alchemy
ruled. Gas laws provided the first clue that quantity, how much, is important
in understanding nature. Some gas laws like Boyle’s, Charles’s, Amontons’s, and
Avogadro’s laws are simple mathematically. Others can be very complex.
In chemistry, the study of large, or macroscopic, systems involves thermo-
dynamics; in small, or microscopic, systems, it can involve quantum mechan-
ics. In systems that change their structures over time, the topic is kinetics. But
they all have basic connections with thermodynamics. We will begin the study
of physical chemistry with thermodynamics.

1.1 Synopsis

This chapter starts with some definitions, an important one being the ther-
modynamic system, and the macroscopic variables that characterize it. If we are
considering a gas in our system, we will find that various mathematical rela-
tionships are used to relate the physical variables that characterize this gas.
Some of these relationships—“gas laws”—are simple but inaccurate. Other gas
laws are more complicated but more accurate. Some of these more complicated
gas laws have experimentally determined parameters that are tabulated to be
looked up later, and they may or may not have physical justification. Finally,
we develop some relationships (mathematical ones) using some simple calcu-
lus. These mathematical manipulations will be useful in later chapters as we
get deeper into thermodynamics.
