Annotation -
The course deals with selected chapters of physical chemistry on advanced level. Knowledge acquired in the basic course Physical Chemistry I is extended to real-behaving systems. Subjects covered involve state behavior of matter, thermodynamics of fluids, phase and chemical equilibria, properties of electrolyte-containing systems, chemical kinetics, and basic concepts of surface chemistry.

Aim of the course -

Students will be able to:

  • explain and describe basic relations governing physico-chemical processes
  • solve real physico-chemical problems encountered in chemical engineering practice

Course completion requirements -

Credit must be earned and an exam must be passed to pass the course.

Credit is obtained by writing three interim tests (at seminars in weeks 5, 10 and 14) or a cumulative credit test (during the exam period - login via SIS).

If a student achieves an average score of 80 or higher, he/she does not have to take the written part of the exam.

The exam consists of a written test (unless waived) and an oral examination. Passing the written part with a score of 50 or higher is a prerequisite for being able to take the oral part of the exam.

Requirements to the exam -

For participation in the exam each student has to get the credit from the seminar meetings. A student will be granted the credit when he/she gains the average 50 per cent of the maximum available from the written tests (partial tests during the semester or the summary test).
