Learning Objectives

Students will acquire the fundamental knowledge on Phisical Chemistry with particular regard towards chemical equilibria and kynetics. He also will learn how to solve practical and numerical problems.

Program

1) Therodynamics: definition of standard-state, entalpy, enthropy and free energy of reaction, Hess law

2) Chemical equilibrium:correlation with the thermodynamic functions, temperature and pressure effect

3) Chemical kynetic: definition of reaction rate, kynetic equations, kynetic constant, reaction order, integration of kynetic first ad second order equations, Arrhenius equation, activation anargy

4) Raction mechemisms: reaction coordinate, mycroscopic reversibility law, Hammond postulate, Bell-Evans-Polanyi principle, kynetic and thermodynamic control of reactions, Curtin-Hammett principle, reactivity-selectivity principle

5) Kynetic: series and parallel reactions, stationary state model, enxymatic cathalisis, pre-equilibrium model, transition entalpy, entropy and free energy

6) Free energy linear correlations: Hammett equation, Yukawa-Tsuno byparametric  equations, steric effectsi (Taft equation)

7) Solvent effect: solvation energy, dipole moment, dielectric constant, ionizer power, acid-base properties, donating and accepting number (DN, AN)

8) Cathalysis: general and specific acid-base cathalysis, metal cathalysis, organic cathalysis, tphase transfert

Bridging Courses

For a better comprehension of the arguments trated in the course, studend need to have solid knowledge about general chemistry, mathematics and physycs.

Learning Achievements (Dublin Descriptors)

  • D1 - Knowledge and understanding ability. Students will be able to describe the foundamental principles of thermodynamics, kynetics and chemical structure of atoms and molecules, and to relate these topics with principles of general chemistry learned in the first semester. Moreover it must learn the mathematical techniques useful to solve pratical problems. This ability will be ascertained in an oral examination.
  • D2 - Application of knowledge and understanding. Students will be able to use the physical chemistry laws with the aim to explain the behaviour of a chemical substance in a complex system, and in particular they will be apble to apply these principle in the pharmaceutical field (distribution, binding, clearance, self-life, enzimatc reactions of drugs). The achievement of these abilities will be tested through an oral examination.
  • D3 - Judgement autonomy. Student will focus their attention on the phisycal chemical models suitable for solve a real problem o to interpret a series of experimental data, and it will be able to choice the model that better fit with the problem. The achievement of these abilities will be tested through the written examination and oral questions aimed at estimate them.
  • D4 - Communication ability. Students will be able to clearly describe the physical-chemical phenomena learned in the course with appropriate language and examples.
  • D5 - Learnning ability. Students will be able to grow autonomously and critically their scientific knowledges by using the teaching material provided by the teacher and any other book or scientific article provided by themselves. These abilities will be stimulated by the teacher proposing and resolving numeric problems.
