This is a solutions manual to accompany Fundamentals and Practice in Statistical Thermodynamics
This textbook supplements, modernizes, and updates thermodynamics courses for both advanced undergraduates and graduate students by introducing the contemporary topics of statistical mechanics such as molecular simulation and liquid-state methods with a variety of realistic examples from the emerging areas of chemical and materials engineering. Current curriculum does not provide the necessary preparations required for a comprehensive understanding of these powerful tools for engineering applications. This text presents not only the fundamental ideas but also theoretical developments in molecular simulation and analytical methods to engineering students by illustrating why these topics are of pressing interest in modern high-tech applications.
