Course description and aims

This course introduces the fundemental knowledge and principle of kinetic model and transport property for gas molecules, diffusion equation, reacion kinetics, mechanism of reaction. The reaction equations to produce materials look simple, but it actually composed of complex reactions. The driving force of these reactions depends on motion, transport and diffusion for molecules, and students are required to understand elementary reactions by way of experiment. Thus, the mechanism of reactions from chemical reaction rate based on temporal response should be comprehended and expressed, and students reach to understand mechanism of reactions.

Student learning outcomes

At the end of this course, students will be able to understand and explain principles of chemical reaction rate from both reaction dynamics to produce materials and kinetic theroy of molecules.

Keywords

Transport Property of Gas, Motion in Liquid, Diffusion Equation, Mechanism of Reaction, Interpretation of Reaction Rate Equation, Collisional Theory, Transition State Theory

Competencies that will be developed

✔ Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

This lecture is given by distribution of necessary handout and blackboard demonstration. Students are given exercise problems related to the lecture given that day to solve. Required learning should be completed outside of the classroom for preparation and review purposes.
