The General Principles of Physical Science an Introduction to the Study of the General Principles of Chemistry (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Explore the principles that connect energy, force, and matter in clear, student‑friendly language. Discover how energy ideas shape everyday measurements and scientific reasoning.
This introduction to physical science presents energy as a central concept that links chemistry and physics. It explains how energy forms and their changes are defined, measured, and used to understand natural phenomena, from motion to heat to the behavior of liquids and gases.
- See how different forms of energy are described, defined, and related to work and heat.
- Learn about units and constants used in energy and force, such as the erg and the dyne, and how they connect to real calculations.
- Explore ideas like surface energy, elastic energy, and the conservation of energy in practical contexts.
- Understand how principles such as the First and Second Laws frame energy changes in physical processes.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces readers to the general concepts and laws of physics and chemistry that underpin theoretical chemistry. It begins by defining fundamental concepts such as matter and energy and introducing basic physical phenomena like motion, velocity, and acceleration. The author then discusses the concept of matter in more depth, explaining its properties and introducing the concept of chemical substances and mixtures. Readers will learn about the different states of matter, including solids, liquids, and gases, and the physical processes that can cause substances to transition between these states. They will also learn about the concept of phase equilibrium and the role of semipermeable walls in resolving mixtures into their constituent components. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamental principles of physical science and lays the groundwork for further study in theoretical chemistry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330195598_0
