THRM 318 - Thermodynamics

Course Description
THRM 318 consists of both Theory and Lab components. In the Theory portion: You will complete the study of bonding, equilibria and kinetics for ideal and real systems. Topics covered include heterogeneous redox reactions as they apply both to corrosion control and to various analytical techniques; equilibrium calculations with acids, bases and buffers; phase equilibria of ideal and real two component systems, and a macroscopic study of liquids, crystals, surfaces, and colloidal suspensions; The course ends with a kinetic and thermodynamic study of nuclear chemistry. The lab portion of the course covers corrosion control and monitoring, and electro-analytical techniques.
