Course content
Using more sophisticated equations of state for the determination of thermodynamics properties of real substances. Thermodynamics of systems in the gravitation, centrifugal, electrostatic and magnetic fields. Thermodynamics of low temperatures - cryogenics. Theory of solutions - activity coefficients.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Work with text (with textbook, with book)
Learning outcomes
The course brings information about behavior of the substances in external force fields and about of estimation of properties of pure substances and their mixtures using the advanced equations of state and information about theory of activity coefficient.
The course enhances knowledge of Chemical Thermodynamics compared to course Advanced Physical Chemistry
Prerequisites
Knowledge on the level of the Advanced Physical Chemistry course

Assessment methods and criteria
Work-related product analysis

Regular weekly checking of the knowledge by solving theoretical and numerical problems - 40% of the subject examination Final examination (oral knowledge verification) - 60% of the subject examination
