Frequently asked questions

How do I cancel my subscription?
Simply head over to the account section in settings and click on “Cancel Subscription” - it’s as simple as that. After you cancel, your membership will stay active for the remainder of the time you’ve paid for. Learn more here.
Can/how do I download books?
At the moment all of our mobile-responsive ePub books are available to download via the app. Most of our PDFs are also available to download and we're working on making the final remaining ones downloadable now. Learn more here.
What is the difference between the pricing plans?
Both plans give you full access to the library and all of Perlego’s features. The only differences are the price and subscription period: With the annual plan you’ll save around 30% compared to 12 months on the monthly plan.
What is Perlego?
We are an online textbook subscription service, where you can get access to an entire online library for less than the price of a single book per month. With over 1 million books across 1000+ topics, we’ve got you covered! Learn more here.
Do you support text-to-speech?
Look out for the read-aloud symbol on your next book to see if you can listen to it. The read-aloud tool reads text aloud for you, highlighting the text as it is being read. You can pause it, speed it up and slow it down. Learn more here.
Is Biophysical Chemistry an online PDF/ePUB?
Yes, you can access Biophysical Chemistry by Dagmar Klostermeier, Markus G. Rudolph in PDF and/or ePUB format, as well as other popular books in Medicine & Biochemistry in Medicine. We have over one million books available in our catalogue for you to explore.

Thermodynamics
T
he 
field 
of 
thermodynamics 
(gr. 
thermos
heat, 
dynamis
force) 
is 
centered 
around 
energy 
in 
all 
forms. 
It 
refers 
to 
the 
analysis 
of 
the 
available 
energy, 
the 
distribution 
of 
energy, 
and 
the 
con-
version 
of 
energy 
from 
one 
form 
into 
the 
other. 
ermodynamic 
considerations 
are 
invaluable 
for 
the 
understanding 
of 
the 
importance 
of 
energy 
in 
biological 
systems, 
its 
storage 
and 
availability, 
and 
the 
energetic 
costs 
involved 
in 
maintaining 
cellular 
functions 
and 
stability. 
e 
thermodynamic 
framework 
is 
based 
on 
four 
laws, 
simple 
rules 
that 
have 
been 
derived 
empirically 
from 
observing 
the 
real 
world. 
ese 
laws 
and 
concepts 
allow 
quantitative 
description 
of 
complex 
biological 
systems, 
and 
enable 
us 
to 
understand 
and, 
more 
importantly, 
to 
predict 
their 
behavior 
in 
specific 
circum-
stances. 
Before 
we 
begin 
to 
construct 
the 
building 
of 
thermodynamics, 
however, 
we 
will 
have 
to 
start 
with 
set 
of 
definitions.
