3. CONTENT DESCRIPTION

THEORY AND PROBLEMS.

Matter in equilibrium: thermodynamics. General aspects in thermodynamics: the first and second laws. The concept of entropy. The perfect gas and the real gas. Thermochemistry and its applications. Energy and enthalpy changes in chemical reactions. Thermodynamics properties of liquids.

Phase equilibria in systems. Solutions of non-electrolytes. Liquid-vapor equilibrium. Liquid-solid equilibrium. The coligative properties of solution: boiling-point elevation, freezing-point depression and osmotic pressure. The chemical potential.  Cells, chemical reactions and activity coefficients. The nature of the equilibrium state. Chemical equilibrium. 

Physical and chemical kinetics. General concepts of kinetics. First and second-order reactions. Activated- complex theory. Theory of reactions kinetics in solution. Chemistry of surfaces. Adsorption processes.

Introduction to macromolecules science: synthetic and natural compounds. An approximation to matter structure: the use of spectroscopy. Rotational, vibrational and electronic spectroscopy. Aproximation to fluorescence spectroscopy. Jablonski diagram.

Transport phenomena: diffusion and viscosity. 

LABORATORY PRACTICES:

1.-Molar Partial magnitudes determination. Application to ethanol-water system.

2.-Cooling curves obtention. Simple eutectic study in a binary system.

3.-Methyl acetate kinetic study. Kinetic parameters determination.

4.-Surface tension determination. Application to binary systems.

5.-Solid-liquid adsorption study. Active carbon-oxalic acid isotherm determination.

6.-Critic micelar concentration determination using conductivity meassurements.

7.-Fluorescence spectroscopy. Physico-chemical parameters determination and Kavanag law determinations using fluorescein.

 

4. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND TEACHING METHODOLOGY

During the development of the subject, the teacher will answer to the questions proposed in the English language during the corresponding schedule of students tutorials.

In addition the teacher will provide the bibliographic references and other materials in relation with the course (articles, images, ...) in English language.

Teacher will allow students the use of English language for questions and deliver jobs and other materials.Also there will be periodic seminars (at least two per month) in English language to complement the development of classes.

 

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

5. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

-Written exam about the theoretical contents develop and some problems similars to those resolved during the course.

-Oral exam about the laboratory experiments. It is necessary in order to know the level of the practice contents asimilated during the course by the students.
