CHEM215 — Principles of Physical Chemistry
This one-semester course presents the principles of thermodynamics, phase diagrams, chemical kinetics and electrochemistry to advanced physical science students. Topics include laws of thermodynamics; enthalpy, entropy, free energy and equilibrium; phase equilibria; reaction rates and mechanisms; molar and ion conductivity; and electrochemical cells. The laboratory portion of the course will instruct students in proper lab techniques and focus on applying the theoretical concepts present in lecture. Lab fee will be required Terms all, Spring Distance Learning: No Liberal Arts and Sciences Designation: Science SUNY General Education Designation(s): Natural Sciences (and Scientific Reasoning) Lecture: 3 Lab: 3
