Introduction to Physical Chemistry 15
10. From the values of rn and c, determine the unknown para-
meter( s).
11. Answer any riders to the question.
In Chapter 9 on Chemical Kinetics, a worked example on graphical
problems will be considered, using the above working method.
CONCLUSION
In Chapter 1, some of the basic concepts of physical chemistry are
introduced, as well as the systematic step-by-step working methods
which should be used where appropriate to tackle numerical or
graphical problems in physical chemistry.
