CEE 3321 - Chemical Thermodynamics and Kinetics

Credits: 3

Covers fundamental thermodynamics and kinetics with a heavy emphasis on chemical constituents and transformations. Explores the basic laws of thermodynamics as well as thermodynamic properties of materials. Classical concepts of heat transfer, work, and energy flow are discussed in ideal gas, uniform non-ideal, and multicomponent systems. Chemical kinetics and reaction mechanisms are covered with a brief introduction to statistical mechanics. Environmental relevant examples are used throughout the course. Prerequisites: CEE 2321 or equivalent and MATH 1338 or MATH 1340.
