Chemical Kinetic Methods - Principles of Fast Reaction Techniques and Applications (Hardcover)

Four new chapters, dealing with the fast kinetic methods, viz. flow methods pulse radiolysis, flash photolysis and fluoresence quenching method have been added in this title with a view to bring more such methods in one comprehensive volume. As these techniques do not come under the category of relaxation methods, the title of the book has been generalised as "Chemical Kinetic Methods, Principles of Fast Reaction Techniques and Applications". Some new features of this book are: the inclusion of worked out examples and addition of more practice problems supplementing the earlier ones in all chapters (except chapters I and XI). It is hoped that both these features will be welcomed by the student community especially, postgraduate students of chemistry who wish to have a comprehensive understanding of this area of kinetics. The addition of many numerical problems (worked out examples and practice problems) might also provide teachers of this subject (fast kinetic methods) as well as those teaching a general course on chemical kinetics with a wider choice in selection of problems in their academic work. It is fervently hoped that the book will be welcomed by the chemistry faculty of various universities, I.I.Ts and other academic institutions in the country as well as by other academicians who are interested in the area of chemical kinetics.
