This book is designed to serve as a textbook for core course of engineering chemistry offered to the undergraduate students enrolled in various engineering programs. It covers a broad range of topics of chemistry (physical, inorganic, and organic) to provide the students an in-depth understanding of the fundamental topics. The textbook includes pedagogical features like end-of-chapter exercises and worked examples to aid self learning. The detailed coverage and pedagogical tools make this an ideal textbook for students enrolled in undergraduate engineering courses. It can also be used as course material for professionals working in interdisciplinary topics related to chemistry.
