| Objective |
This course aims to provide students with the fundamental knowledge (aqueous solutions, chemical thermodynamics) necessary to understand the operation of industrial chemical reactors used to manufacture basic products in various industrial sectors. In this context, the objectives of this course are as follows: - To provide students with basic knowledge of aqueous solutions (pH, redox reactions, complexation, and precipitation) - To use the fundamental principles of chemical thermodynamics to understand, both qualitatively and quantitatively, the study of chemical reactions and the concept of chemical equilibrium - To establish a link with the physical thermodynamics course |
| Content |
1. Review of aqueous solutions (solvent-solute) 2. Concepts of acids/bases (according to Brønsted) - Acid-base pairs 3. Reactions between acids and bases - pH calculation 4. Complexation reactions: precipitation 5. Redox reactions: definitions 6. Redox reactions 7. Application to the operation of electrochemical cells 8. Midterm exam week 9. Introduction to chemical thermodynamics 10. First Law of Thermodynamics 11. Second Law and evolution of a chemical system 12. Chemical equilibrium: theoretical approach 13. Chemical equilibrium: applications 14. Laws of chemical equilibrium shifts (Lavoisier) |
| Course Learning Outcomes |
Students who successfully complete this course will have acquired the following knowledge: - the ability to calculate the pH of mixtures of acids and bases using justified approximations - the ability to use mathematical tools to simplify the resolution of solution chemistry problems - the ability to relate the different quantities internal energy U, enthalpy H, entropy S, and Gibbs free energy G to interpret chemical equilibria. |
