CHEM 4212 - Chemical Kinetics


Credits: 2
An introduction to physical chemistry that emphasizes the experimental and theoretical aspects of chemical reaction kinetics, including transition-state theories, classical techniques, and statistical mechanical estimation of rate constants. These principles will be applied to a variety of physical and chemical phenomena including reactions in the gas phase, liquid phase, and on surfaces. They are discussed with examples drawn from atmospheric, combustion, industrial, catalytic, and biological chemistry.

Prerequisites: Successful completion of MATH 2015   - Calculus 1 with C grade or higher.
Offering: Fall Odd Year
