COURSE OBJECTIVE
Physical chemistry is an essential natural science in the field of environmental protection, so understanding and applying the basic principles, laws, and theories of physical chemistry is crucial in chemical engineering practice of environmental protection. The aim of the course is also to develop the ability to logically solve problems and derive equations that describe the equilibrium state and kinetics of different physicochemical systems. This one-semester course is adapted to a study that studies the environment.
