Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
This course is based on the knowledge of physical chemistry (chemical thermodynamics, theories of solutions, electrolyte solutions, chemical equilibrium), physics (gas laws, atomic structure, electricity, magnetism) and higher mathematics (differentials, integrals, differential equations).
Course content
The course consists of lectures and practical classes, as well as laboratory work on the main sections of the physical chemistry of processes, namely: chemical kinetics, kinetics of elementary processes, kinetics of reactions in homogeneous systems, homogeneous catalysis, physical chemistry of interphase phenomena, heterogeneous catalysis, electrochemical equilibrium, fundamentals of statistical thermodynamics. As a result of mastering the academic discipline, the student will understand the physical meaning and mathematical notation of the main laws and theories of chemical kinetics, be able to explain and predict the features and conditions of the course of chemical processes, practically calculate various kinetic characteristics of chemical processes, and also determine these characteristics experimentally.
