Explores chemical equilibrium principles, including Le Châtelier's Principle and equilibrium constants, and discusses the influence of temperature, pressure, and concentration on equilibrium shifts.
Delves into the historical motivations behind the second law of thermodynamics, emphasizing limitations in heat-to-work conversion and the inevitability of irreversible processes.
Covers chemical equilibrium, kinetics, Le Chatelier's principle, and equilibrium constants, emphasizing the balance between reactions and the effects of temperature, pressure, and concentration changes.
