Peter Atkins' Very Short Introduction explores the contributions physical chemistry has made to all branches of chemistry.
V= nRT/p V ∫Vdp pi Pressure, p pf Fig. 3F.5 At constant temperature, the change in Gibbs energy for a perfect gas between two pressures is equal to the area shown below the perfect-gas isotherm. N = n N A energy of a perfect gas at a ...
This edition is comprised of 22 chapters; the first of which introduces the reader to the behavior of ideal and nonideal gases, with particular emphasis on the van der Waals equation.
Physical Chemistry: With Applications to the Life Sciences
This book specifically emphasizes the use of mathematics in the context of physical chemistry, as opposed to being simply a mathematics text.
If you are interested in asking 'why' and not just 'how', then you need to understand physical chemistry. Physical Chemistry: How Chemistry Works takes a fresh approach to teaching in physical chemistry.
