Features: This book is a textbook for the Chemistry course within the new system model of 21st-century engineering chemistry curriculum reform (a two-stage curriculum system centered on physical chemistry). It incorporates preliminary content of physical chemistry principles and selects relevant chemical principles and basic chemical knowledge from a modern perspective. The book is divided into two parts. Part I is Chemical Principles (Chapters 1 to 11), which starts from the microscopic essence and then discusses the macroscopic laws of chemistry. Part II is Introduction to Chemistry (Chapters 12 to 21), which constructs a framework of modern chemical basic knowledge, reflects the characteristics of engineering chemistry, and introduces knowledge related to chemical progress and the development of modern high-tech. Each chapter includes biographies of renowned scientists and reference bibliographies. Additionally, short essays are contributed by experts from fields such as astronomy, aerospace, information, materials, and biology, showcasing the interdisciplinary integration of other disciplines with chemistry. This book can serve as a textbook for majors in chemical and pharmaceutical engineering, materials science, environmental and safety engineering, light industry, textile and food, and biological engineering in higher industrial institutions, as well as a reference for relevant technical professionals.
