  10. INTRODUCTION TO PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY • What is Physical Chemistry? • the study of the underlying physical principles that govern the properties & behaviour of chemical systems.

  11. AREAS OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY • Can be classified into 4 main areas:

  12. AREAS OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY • Quantum chemistry: application of quantum mechanics to atomic structure, molecular bonding & spectroscopy • Thermodynamics: Macroscopic science that studies: i. the interrelationships of the various equilibrium properties of a system & ii. the changes in equilibrium properties in process

  13. AREAS OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY • Statistical mechanics: relate quantum chemistry with thermodynamics. • Gives insight into why laws of thermodynamics hold & allows calculation of macroscopic thermodynamic properties from molecular properties. • Kinetics:study of rate processes. • Examples: chemical reaction, diffusion & flow of charge in an electrochemical cell.

  14. THERMODYNAMICS • Is the study of heat, work, energy and the changes they produce in the state of the systems.

  15. Thermodynamic- Basic concepts

  16. Thermodynamic- Basic concepts • Type of system: Matter System System System Energy Energy Open system (can exchange matter & energy) Closed system (no transfer of matter, can exchange energy) Isolated system (can exchange neither energy nor matter)

  17. Thermodynamic- Basic concepts • Walls: a system may be separated from its surrounding by various kind of walls: • Rigid or nonrigid(movable) • Permeable (allow matter to pass through) or impermeable • Adiabatic (does not conduct heat at all) or nonadiabatic

  18. Thermodynamic Properties • Extensive property : property that depends on the amount of substance present in the sample • Eg: mass, volume • Intensive property: property that is independent of the amount of substance • E.g., mass density, pressure and temperature)

  19. STUDY SUGGESTIONS Hints on how to study Physical Chemistry: • Summarize each set of notes on one page in an organized form that helps to isolate all key points: “nerd notes” • Download all available handouts, including equation sheets • Start working on problems with the equation sheets a.s.a.p. and do not fall behind • Physical Chemistry is not a “memory-based”, learn-by-rote discipline, but is centred upon problem-based learning. However, you must practice solving problems, deriving equations, etc. to become proficient. • Review assigned and in-class problems • Attend tutorials • View animations and use other web resources
