Contents:

Atoms, elements, and measurements -- Nuclides, molecules, and ions -- Rate processes, radioactive decay -- Chemical reactions and stoichiometry -- Gases -- Atoms, quantum mechanics, and the periodic table -- Chemical bonding and chemical structure -- Chemical energy and the first law of thermodynamics -- Second law of thermodynamics and chemical equilibrium -- Gas and solution equilibria -- Liquids and their mixtures -- Solids -- Phase diagrams and solutions -- Periodic table and redox chemistry -- Electrochemistry -- Rate processes -- Glossary.

Summary: The theme of [this] book is simple: All the stuff that engineers use and apply is composed of chemical entities (atoms, molecules, and ions). The bulk properties of matter derive from those entities and the forces among them. To understand chemistry is to understand stuff. The book [teaches you]: Chemical Fundamentals, atoms (including nuclides and isotopes), molecules and ions, molds and stoichiometry, and units and measurements; The nature of Chemical Bonding, gases and intermolecular forces ... Chemical Thermodynamics and Chemical Equilibrium ... Properties of Matter, properties of liquids and liquid mixtures, solids and the basics of materials science, relationship among the states of aggregation of matter; Applied Chemistry, descriptive chemistry and the periodic table, the nature of redox chemistry and electrochemistry, rate processes and the aging of materials.-Pref
