Course content
The course "Physical Chemistry of Interphaсial Phenomena" outlines the main sections of the chemistry of surface phenomena on the interface liquid-gas and solid-gas; physicochemical bases of description of heterogeneous systems with surface layer, basic theories of nucleation, adsorption, models of monomolecular layer of adsorbate on solid surface based on ideal equation of two-dimensional gas, two-dimensional analogue of Van der Waals equation and polymolecular adsorption model; modern physicochemical methods for studying the surface of adsorbents and catalysts, which are necessary to study the structural adsorption properties, porosity and specific surface of solids and understanding the nature of phenomena on the phase separation surface.
