TFKI77 | Physical Chemistry, 6 ECTS-points /Fysikalisk kemi/ Advancement level: B | |
Aim: The course is intended to give the student a good orientation in basic physical chemistry - the theory as well as the laboratory practice - thus giving him/her a fundamental base for further studies in chemistry and technology. The aim of the laborations is to shed light on the theory and to give him/her skills in the laboratory techniques of physical chemistry.Prerequisites: Attended TFKI 76 General chemistry.Supplementary courses: TFKI 78 Inorganic Chemistry, TFKI 79 Organic Chemistry,Course organization: Lectures and laborations dominates. A few lessons with solving of problems from certain parts of the theory are included.Course content: Lectures and lessons: The ideal gas equation and van der Waals gases. Intermolecular forces. Properties of solids, liquids and solutions; colligative properties. Phase equilibria. Chemical kinetics; rate laws and mechanisms. Chemical equilibrium; calculations, changes of the equilibrium situation by extern variables. Chemical thermodynamics; first, second and third laws, enthalpy and thermochemistry, entropy and spontaneous reactions, Gibbs free energy and equilibrium. Phase equilibria. Electrochemistry; galvanic cells and electrolysis, connections to thermodynamics. Laborations: Thermochemistry, Destillation Phase equilibria, Kinetics and Electrochemistry.Course literature: Ebbing D.D., General Chemistry, Houghton Mifflin Company, Boston. | ||
