Stoichiometry: 5e

"The text authored by Prof. Bhatt is one of the established texts available in the market on the subject of Stoichiometry. It has withstood the time period of almost 33 years and has been constantly revised and updated at regular intervals to incorporate the contemporary changes related to the subject. The text has been prescribed in the syllabi of major universities and prestigious autonomous institutions. The author has explained different stoichiometric concepts with the help of practical and industrial examples rather than those which merely represent simple hypothetical problems. The statements of the problems (solved and unsolved both) are based on the technical articles from reputed journals so that readers get actual feel of industrial problems. The text has been thoroughly revised to cover latest data published in the recent past in reputed journals. For example, the revised Atomic Weights as per 2005 published IUPAC data, Data for many gases at high pressures and temperatures (non-ideal conditions) presented from NIST REFPROP, Ver. 8, 2007 ( a special software which accurately gives properties for many compounds and their mixtures) and so on. In each chapter new examples are included in solved category as well as in exercises. Block diagrams on stoichiomtery with industrial problems have been included. Linear model for solving material balance problems are introduced. Use of Matrix algebra in solving these problems (with or without chemical reactions) with mathematical softwares; such as Mathcad, Matlab is covered with examples. Hence, it has the distinction of being the most updated and contemporary text on Stoichiometry and in accordance with the syllabi of major Universities all across India."
