COURSE OBJECTIVE
Physical chemistry is an essential science for chemical engineering. Understanding and applying fundamental principles, laws and theories of the physical
chemistry is especially important in the chemical engineering practice of separation processes, surface phenomena and electrical engineering, and basic knowledge of chemical kinetics is necessary in monitoring the rate of reactions in chemical reactors. The aim of the course is also to develop the ability to logically solve problems and derive equations closely related to chemical engineering.
