Sommario/riassunto

Navigate the complexities of biochemical thermodynamics with Mathematica(r)Chemical reactions are studied under the constraints of constant temperature and constant pressure; biochemical reactions are studied under the additional constraints of pH and, perhaps, pMg or free concentrations of other metal ions. As more intensive variables are specified, more thermodynamic properties of a system are defined, and the equations that represent thermodynamic properties as a function of independent variables become more complicated.This sequel to Robert Alberty's popular Thermodynamics
