Learning Outcomes
# Öğrenme Kazanımı
1 It explains chemical equilibrium from a thermodynamic perspective and establishes the relationship between equilibrium constants and free energy. Using Le Chatelier's principle, it explains the effect of changes in temperature, pressure, and concentration on equilibrium.
2 students explain and compare the properties of ideal and non-ideal mixtures, analyze the behavior of solutions using Raoult's Law and Henry's Law.
3 It explains the concept of phase equilibrium and interprets phase behavior in single/multi-component systems. It identifies the critical point, the three-point, and phase boundaries on the phase diagram. It calculates the degrees of freedom using Gibbs' phase law.
4 Defines the rate of a chemical reaction and explains how the rate is determined experimentally. Calculates half-life and rate constant using integrated rate equations.
5 It states the rate law and determines the reaction rate from experimental data. It analyzes the effect of temperature on reaction rate using the Arrhenius equation.
6 The students solve physicochemical problems using thermodynamic relationships.
