Lectures
B.PC3 - Physical Chemistry III

Physical Chemistry III (B.PC3)

Lecture content:

Basics of molecular spectroscopy (UV-vis, IR, MW, NMR, ESR), symmetry, transport phenomena (conductivity, diffusion, viscosity), introduction to statistical thermodynamics

Qualification Goals:

The students will develop a fundamental understanding of the principles of physical chemistry in the subject of molecular spectroscopy, transport properties as well as statistical thermodynamics. They recognize the importance of symmetry of molecules when interpreting spectra. They will be able to apply the gained knowledge to concrete physico-chemical phenomena. They will be capable of solving calculation problems independently in the mentioned areas. Experiments based on these fields will become plannable and executable. The students will be able to apply the gained knowledge to the examination of experiments.

Exam information:

5 CP, written examination
