by Carl Hering (Author)
Standard data made profoundly practical. Hering's Standard Table of Electrochemical Equivalents transforms dry constants into an electrochemistry reference guide that serves both the bench scientist and the calculator, pairing a rigorous electrochemical equivalents table with explanatory text on electrochemical calculations and carefully worked examples. Clear figures and worked examples. Precise, step-by-step chemistry problem solutions address typical practical examples so the reader can follow each calculation from ion to mass, making it a scientific calculation manual and a reliable engineering calculations aid. The book arranges standard electrochemical data and their derivatives for quick consultation, with conversions and worked arithmetic that save time at the balance and the voltmeter. As a laboratory reference book and student chemistry resource it bridges the gap between theory and practice: simple tables sit alongside methodical solutions that lab technicians, undergraduates and practising engineers will reach for again and again. As a nineteenth-century science text and physical chemistry compendium, Hering's manual offers both a clear snapshot of contemporary practice and a lasting toolkit for applied work; it is as much a historical chemistry manual as it is a functional reference. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Casual readers with an appetite for scientific history will find lucid explanations and startlingly practical examples that reveal the methods behind the numbers, while specialist readers will appreciate the concise presentation of derivatives and calculation shortcuts. Classic-literature collectors and institutional libraries will value the book's provenance and the exacting standards of nineteenth-century technical writing. More than raw data, the volume is a bridge between eras: a standard electrochemical data source, a compendium of practical electrochemistry examples and a companion for anyone who needs dependable numbers and clear methods.
