Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
Have basic knowledge of university courses in higher mathematics (equations and systems of equations, operations with powers and roots, average values, natural and decimal logarithms, proportionality, functions and their graphs, integration, differentiation), as well as the basics of general chemistry, statistical methods in chemistry on undergraduate levels.
Course content
The "Physical Chemistry" course consists of lectures and practical classes, as well as laboratory work on the main sections of physical chemistry, namely: chemical thermodynamics, physical chemistry of solutions and solutions of electrolytes, chemical equilibrium, phase equilibrium. As a result of studying the academic discipline, the student will learn to formulate, understand the physical meaning and mathematical notation of basic physicochemical laws, apply basic physicochemical laws to explain certain features and conditions of the state of chemical systems, for practical calculations of various physicochemical characteristics of chemical processes, and also determine these characteristics experimentally.
