This book takes the mystery out of statistics and provides simple, hands-on instructions in the format of everyday formulas. Spreadsheet shortcuts and functions are included, along with many simple worked examples. This book is a must-have guide to applied statistics in the lab that will result in improved experimental design and analysis. This thoroughly revised second edition includes several new sections, more examples, and all formulas in Excel code.

  • Particles at Interfaces

    Interactions, Deposition, Structure
    • 2nd Edition
    • Volume 20
    • October 16, 2017
    • Zbigniew Adamczyk
    • English
    Particles and Interfaces: Interaction, Deposition, Structure, Volume 20, Second Edition unifies particle and protein adsorption phenomena by presenting recent developments in this growing field of nanoscience. While experimental data is available in vast quantities, there is a deficit in quality interpretation of that data. This title provides such information, emphasizing the basic physics behind practical problems, thus empowering the reader to estimate relevant effects. The book includes solved problems of particle transport under non-linear conditions and their relevance to predicting protein adsorption, including an entirely new chapter devoted to polyelectrolyte and protein adsorption at solid/liquid and solid/gas interfaces.

This book is comprised of 52 chapters and opens with an assessment of the likely future availability of conventional oil and gas as they relate to possible demands for petrochemical feedstocks, paying particular attention to the availability and demand patterns for fossil hydrocarbons. The following chapters discuss the reserves and worldwide distribution of oil shale and tar sands; climate and its impact on renewable resources; research and management of natural resources; and production of chemicals directly from synthesis gas. Pyrolysis of solid carbonaceous materials is also considered, along with natural rubber production and biomass for non-food use. This monograph will be a useful resource for organic chemists and energy policymakers.

    9780080211978 Physical Organic Chemistry - 3 (Montpellier, 1976) is a collection of plenary lectures presented at the Third IUPAC Conference on Physical Organic Chemistry, held in Montpellier, France on September 6-10, 1976. This book is composed of nine chapters and begins with an examination of the concept of absolute equilibrium acidity scale and its application to structure-activity relationship evaluation. The succeeding chapters deal with micellar catalysis and inhibition, as well as the application of quantum chemical ab initio methods to CO, CS, and related double bonds. These topics are followed by discussions of the hydrolysis of acetals and hemiacetals; the mechanisms and catalysis in vinyl ester hydrolysis; and the acid-base catalysis of carbonyl and acyl group reactions. The final chapters explore the strain energy modeling of simple and crowded aliphatic ketones. These chapters also look into the stereochemistry of dissolving metal reduction of ketones and the hydrolysis of phosphate esters. This book will be of value to physical chemists and physical chemistry researchers and students.
