So many problems, helped me out a lot in preparing for exams and understanding the concepts of the material. It explains things clearly and kind of just gets to the point where as the textbook has a lot of jargon. The solutions are well thought and laid out.
I was failing this class at GA Tech after the first two exams, but managed a B after studying the rest of the summer with this companion book. Thermodynamics is crazy difficult, but this book made the material a lot more approachable and easier to handle.
If you are looking fo ra Schaum's series for Thermo I, get hte chemical applications version by Van Ness and Abbott. The Engineerings version uses second law for all the work throughout, which is normally taught in second semester.
great book to supplement with textbook, has good example problems and does a pretty good job of explaining concepts in layman terms, the low cost makes it a great value and worth purchasing
