Aim:
The course should give a fundamental knowledge in the theory of thermodynamics and also give an explanation on thermodynamic base of physical and technical processes.
To achieve those goals the student should able to:
- Describe properties of ideal and real gases and the diffreneces between them.
- Account for the condensation of gases and critical phenomena
- Use concepts of thermochemistry to explain the energetics of chemical reactions.
- Describe the concepts of entropy and the second law of thermodynamics, and be able to explain spontaneous processes, and the impacts on them from the conditions applied.
- Use and make up phase diagrams in systems of one or more components and account for practical applications.
- Perform calculations on chemical equilibria and describe the impacts on them from outer conditions, and give some practical examples.
- Analyse, compile and account for laboratory exercise results in written reports.
- Deduce if experimental or calculated results are reasonable.
