Course content
Kinetic theory of matter: Ideal gas-description, state equation, basic gas laws, equation of transport effects. Real gas-description, Van der Waals equation, generalized diagram of compressive factors. Thermodynamics: Basic concepts, the first law of thermodynamics. Thermochemistry-calculation of reaction heats, Kirchhoffs´s law. The second and third laws, Gibbs energy and its change in chemical reaction, Gibbs-Helmholtz equation. Partial molar quantities, dissolving and diluting heat, chemical potential and its importance, fugacity and activity. Phase equilibria: one- and two-component, distillation, Henry´s law, three-component, separation coefficient. Chemical equilibria: Guldberg-Waage law, calculation of equilibrium constant from thermodynamic and kinetic data, l´Chatelier principle, effect of temperature and pressure on the equilibrium composition, description of heterogeneous equilibria. Electrochemistry: Electrolyte, the condition of electroneutrality. Electrode equilibria-Nernst and Peters equation, types of electrodes, electrochemical cells, types of cells, usage and significance, electromotoric tension. Electrochemical conductivity: types, measurement, importance and usage. Electrolysis-Faraday´s law, deposition potential, overvoltage, corrosion. Chemical kinetics: velocity of isolated and simultaneous reactions, superposition, law of action of active masses. Arrhenius dependence of the rate constant on temperature, activation energy. Definition of the catalyst and principle of catalysis, hetrogeneous reactions, description and principle of solving.

Learning outcomes
The goal of the course is to get the most basic knowledges about the kinetic theory of matter and thermodynamics, simple description of systems and processes in terms of energetic balance, in electrochemistry the application of thermodynamic knowledges on systems with charged particles, in reaction kinetics the basic informations about the determination of time course of chemical reactions. Absolvent of this course gains the necessary broader look on the chemistry in terms of usage of mathematics, physics, chemistry and logical thinking, with the possibility to propagate his knowledges in the range of physical chemistry.
After graduation of the object the student gets the necessery wider look on the chemistry in term of the usage of mathematics, physics, chemistry and logical thinking with the possibility of enlergement of the next physico-chemical knowledges
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of the mathematics, physics, chemistry, logical thinking
