See course description in Danish

Learning Objectives

  • Describe how the thermodynamic functions U, G, H, A and S depend on composition, temperature and pressure.
  • Describe deviations from ideality in terms of intermolecular interactions.
  • Predict the dependency of vapor pressure and partial pressures of mixtures depend on composition and temperarure.
  • Identify phases and phase equilibria in phase diagrams.
  • Calculate changes in phase and chemical equilibria on changes in composition, pressure and temperature.
  • Calculate the electrode potentials in galvanic cells.
  • Calculate thermodynamic standard values from experimental emf data.
  • Analyze simplified practical equilibrium systems.
  • Predict spotaneity and direction of a process.
  • Explain chamical rate expressions, incl, Michaelis-Menten mechanism, og calculate chemical reaction rates, reaction order and extent.
