Features: This book is a crystallization of collective wisdom. It is based on the fundamental knowledge and principles of modern chemistry, focusing on interdisciplinary content closely related to chemistry and of special societal concern, such as energy, materials, information, environment, and daily life. It emphasizes the connection between chemistry and society (Social), economy (Economic), and technology (Technological) (SOCET). The book prioritizes new developments in science and technology, tracks the forefront of the discipline, highlights case-based teaching, and emphasizes the cultivation of scientific thinking methods and innovative abilities, with a focus on quality education. The book is divided into two parts: the first part introduces thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, chemical equilibrium, solution chemistry, electrochemistry, coordination chemistry, and the theory of material structure, while the second part explores the applications of chemistry in life sciences, material sciences, environmental sciences, information sciences, energy sciences, and other fields. The entire book can serve as a textbook for engineering chemistry (general chemistry) for various science and engineering majors in higher industrial schools. The second part is suitable as a textbook for elective chemistry courses for students in humanities, economics, finance, law, and other disciplines at universities.
