Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

- to utilize the fundamental thermodynamic quantities (enthalpy, entropy, Gibbs energy) for the system behaviour describing; - to describe the chemical equilibrium, to illustrate the influence of temperature and pressure; - to describe the phase equilibrium, the Gibbs phase rule, phase equilibrium of pure substances; - to define and to utilize basic terms of chemical kinetics - rate of chemical reaction, rate law and rate constants, reaction order. To illustrate the temperature dependence of reaction rates; - to describe basic processes of heterogeneous reactions – diffusion, adsorption - to determine the rate-limiting step for heterogeneous processes - to apply obtained theoretical knowledge in tutorials and laboratory and on selected processes of chemical practice.
