It is essential that the students understand and predict physical properties of ideal and real gases, knowing how to apply the three laws of thermodynamics to reactions, allowing them to predict and calculate heat and/or work exchanges, entropy variations and spontaneity of the processes.
The student must be able to interpret phase diagram of pure substance, understanding the meaning of triple and critic points, and also to interpret different phase diagrams for mixtures, establishing the basis for several industrial separation process.
1. Brief review of some fundamental concepts of Physics.
2. Gases: Perfect gases. Kinetic theory of gases. Real gases – state equations (abreviated).
3. 1st thermodynamics law: Definitions. Work and heat. Internal energy and enthalpy.
4. Thermochemistry: Transitions enthalpies. Types of enthalpy. Temperature effect.
5. 2nd thermodynamics law: Entropy and the 2nd law. Absolute entropy and the 3rd law. Gibbs energy and spontaneity – properties.
6. Phase equilibrium: Transitions thermodynamics. Variation of the Gibbs energy with pressure and temperature. Phase diagrams – interpretations and examples. Liquids molecular structure.
7. Mixtures: Introduction. Ideal solutions. Real solutions and activities. Colligative properties. Mixture phase diagrams – volatile and non-volatile liquids and solid-liquid.
8. Chemical equilibrium: Thermodynamics basis. Standard Gibbs energy. Equilibrium constant and composition. Le Chatelier’s principle. Van’t Hoff equation.
In theoretical classes fundamental concepts are exposed, using audio-visual techniques. Illustrative applications of these concepts are solved, stimulating rational thinking and fostering a more critical spirit.
In TP classes, students solve individually and independently the application exercises proposed. It is worth to mention that there is a time for tutorial orientation (as part of the doubt schedule), which is meant for the students to solve extra exercises or other assignments/projects.
In the same semester there is a laboratory curricular unit associated (Laboratory II) in which the students performs several experimental works that exemplifies the thermodynamics principles applications.
