This course is the first part of this program, introduction to Physical Chemistry. This foundation course
of physical chemistry covers basic knowledge and its application for learning chemical principles of
physics to chemistry. This offer complementary approaches to the fundamental understanding of
chemical systems. Students will acquire knowledge to enable themselves to understand the kinetic
theory of gases, collision theory of reactions, fundamental principles and laws of thermodynamics and
chemical equilibria and to investigate the physical properties of ideal/non-ideal binary solutions.
Students will also be able to study the rates of reactions and perform related calculations. The general
goal of learning physical chemistry is to obtain a vision of matter-energy relationship in physical and
chemical systems. Learning objectives emphasized in CHEM 5101 involve developing an understanding
of basic principles of physical chemistry. Students learned in class to modern physical chemistry
techniques which give them opportunities to see how Physical Chemists are solving current, real-world
problems.
