Provides students with solutions to problems in the 3rd edition of the classic textbook Electrochemical Methods: Fundamentals and Applications
Electrochemical Methods is a popular textbook on electrochemistry that takes the reader from the most basic chemical and physical principles, through fundamentals of thermodynamics, kinetics, and mass transfer, all the way to a thorough treatment of all important experimental methods. Holistically, it offers comprehensive coverage of all important topics in the field. To aid in reader comprehension, exercises are included at the end of each chapter which extend concepts introduced in the text or show how experimental data are reduced to fundamental results. This book provides worked solutions for many of the end-of-chapter exercises and is a key resource for any student who makes use of the original textbook.
