Engineering Chemistry By Rath Amp- Singh 2nd Edition Cengage Learning India Pvt Ltd Delhi May 2026

Second-year undergraduate engineering student (Chemical/Mechanical stream)

The 2nd edition of Engineering Chemistry by Rath & Singh is a staple textbook for many Indian universities following the AICTE model syllabus. Published by Cengage Learning India, this edition attempts to bridge the gap between fundamental chemistry and its industrial engineering applications. It is clearly written with the engineering student in mind—not a pure chemistry major.

First- and second-year engineering students at state technical universities (VTU, RTU, UPTU, Anna University, etc.) who need a textbook that directly maps to their exam syllabus and provides ample solved numericals.

A workhorse, not a showhorse. It gets the job done for the average engineering student. 4 stars.
