In the last decade, the evolution of electrochemistry away from concern with the physical chemistry of solutions to its more fruitful goal in the study of the widespread consequences of the transfer of electric charges across interphases has come to fruition.
The chapters making up this volume had originally been planned to form part of a single volume covering solid hydrates and aqueous solutions of simple molecules and ions.
Imagine that a young physicist would approach a granting agen- cy and propose to contribute to heterogeneous catalysis by studying the heat conductivity of gases in contact with a hot filament.
This is the third volume of the collection of new devices, modifications of existing equipment, and other items of interest of this nature published in the journal Applied Spectroscopy.
This volume represents a collection of selected papers from a symposium of the Division of Colloid and Surface Chemistry held in Chicago during the national meeting of the American Chemical Society, August, 1973.
During the last 30 years our knowledge and understanding of molecular processes has followed the development of increasingly sophisticated tech- niques for studying fast reactions.
The present volume and its companion Volume 2 document the proceedings of the Symposium on Surface Contamination: Its Genesis, Detection and Control held in Washington, D.
Some seven years before Kerr's death, Larmor proposed that electric birefringence had its origin in the orientation of anisotropic molecules or elements within the apparently isotropic medium.
In the Soviet Union, investigations of electrochemical changes in organic substances are being conducted on a comparatively large scale and a large number of specialists are involved.
This is the eighth volume of a continuing series intended to provide a forum for publication of develop- ments in Mossbauer effect methodology and in spectroscopy and its applications.
This is the sixth volume of a series that provides a continuing forum for publication of developments in M6ssbauer effect method- ology and of spectroscopy and its applications.
This is the fifth volume of a series which provides acontinuing forum for publication of developments in Mossbauer effect methodology and of spectroscopy and its applications.
The chapters in this book are devoted to the elementary reactions of small molecules in the gas phase, with some emphasis on reactions important in combustion.
From the first appearance of the classic The Spectrum Analysis in 1885 to the present the field of emission spectroscopy has been evolving and changing.
The principles of fluorescence spectroscopy are by now well established, and, after a rather lengthy gestation period, the technique is now routinely applied to a broad spectrum of problems, ranging from mechanistic photo- chemistry to chemical analyses in biomedical and environmental systems of structure and function in biological macromolecules.
If one reflects upon the range of chemical problems accessible to the current quantum theoretical methods for calculations on the electronic structure of molecules, one is immediately struck by the rather narrow limits imposed by economic and numerical feasibility.

The last decade has been marked by a rapid growth in statistical mechanics, especially in connection with the physics and chemistry of the fluid state.
The application of the Fourier transform is being seen to an increasing extent in all branches of chemistry, but it is in the area of chemical analysis that the greatest activity is taking place.
Some knowledge of the principles of quantum mechanics and how they are applied to theoretical chemistry, it is generally agreed, should be part of the education of all chemists.
The present decade might be described as one in which man in the affluent countries is finally realizing that there is a bill to pay at the end of the feast-a feast at which he has eaten without inhibition, without knowing there was any need for inhibition.
This volume is a collection of the presentations given at a symposium on reaction kinetics in micelles at the l64th Meeting of the American Chemical Society, Division of Colloid and Surface Science, in New York City in August of 1972.
During the past few years, there has been dramatic progress in theoretical and computational studies of large molecules and local- ized states in solids.
