CHEM 324 - Kinetics
Credit Hours: 3
Lecture Hours: 3
Lab Hours: 0
A study of change, including the transport properties of gases and liquids and electrical conduction. Starting with the kinetic theory of gases, the absolute rate theory and the collision theory are derived. Other topics include rates; mechanisms including complex mechanisms (consecutive, chain, branching, autocatalytic, and polymerizing); and the half-life of chemical reactions. Students will also be exposed to the steady-state approximation, and the study of the Arrhenius theory for calculation of activation parameters.
Prerequisite: CHEM 211 and CHEM 211L and MATH 241 and MATH 242 and PHYS 122
