Molecular Physics: Kinetic Theory and Thermodynamics discusses the kinetic theory of ideal gases, transport phenomenon and behaviour of real of gases in detail. Thermodynamics and non-equilibrium thermodynamics are clearly formulated and their applications in various branches of physics (phase transitions, low temperature physics, thermal conduction and radiation) are also discussed.

• Mathematical Derivations Worked Out in Detail Thermodynamics of Mixtures Treated · Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics Discussed · Mathematical Functions, Useful Integral and Statistical Distribution Function Discussed · Solved and Unsolved Problems in each Chapter Including Practice Problems
