CHEM 3510 - Physical Chemistry
For premedicine, B.S.Ed., B.S.I.H., and A.B. Chemistry majors. Topics include thermodynamics, thermochemistry, equilibrium, solutions, and kinetics.
Requisites: C- or better in ((CHEM 1520) and (MATH 2301)) and (PHYS 2002 or 2052)
Credit Hours: 3
Repeat/Retake Information: May be retaken two times excluding withdrawals, but only last course taken counts.
Lecture/Lab Hours: 3.0 lecture
Grades: Eligible Grades: A-F,WP,WF,WN,FN,AU,I
Learning Outcomes: - Students will be able to compute changes in free energy and quantitatively describe the transformation of energy from one form to another in a variety of chemical processes.
- Students will be able to describe the fundamental forces and principal laws that govern the formation of chemical bonds and intermolecular interactions.
- Students will be able to distinguish between enthalpic and entropic driving forces for chemical processes.
- Students will be able to explain how changes in state functions (P, V, T) can alter equilibria in chemical systems and change the direction of chemical reactions.
- Students will be able to explain the basic tenets of quantum theory and the structure of the atom.
- Students will be able to state the principal laws of thermodynamics and to explain how these laws apply to real chemical systems.
