教学大纲

Week 1 - Thermodynamics I
This module explores thermodynamic definitions, the zeroth law of thermodynamics and temperature, the first law of thermodynamics and enthalpy, reversible expansion, and heat capacity.
Week 2 - Thermodynamics II
This module explores the second law of thermodynamics and entropy, the second law of thermodynamics and spontaneity, the second law of thermodynamics and equilibrium, the third law of thermodynamics and absolute entropy, and Hess' Law.
Week 3 - Virtual Lab 1: Thermodynamics
This lab allows you to further explore thermodynamics.
Week 4 - Chemical Kinetics I
This module explores the rate of reaction, stoichiometry and order, zero order reactions, first order reactions, second order reactions, determination of reaction order, and effect of temperature on reaction rate.
Week 5 - Chemical Kinetics II
This module explores complex reactions, steady-state approximation, and catalysis.
Week 6 - Virtual Lab 2: Kinetics
This lab allows you to further explore kinetics.
Week 7 - Quantum Chemistry I
This module explores Planck's quantum of energy, particle nature of light, wave nature of matter, Heissenberg's uncertainty principle, the Schrödinger equation, free particle & the particle in a box, Born's interpretation of the wavefunction, and normalisation...
Week 8 - Virtual Lab 3: Particle in a Box
This experiment involves the visible absorption spectra of dyes.
Week 9 - Quantum Chemistry II

Tracing its roots back to 1824, the University of Manchester is home to almost 40,000 students. The University has three Nobel laureates among its current staff – more than any other British university - and a total of 25 Nobel laureates have come from our past and present students and staff. We have three main goals: to undertake world-class research; to deliver an outstanding learning and student experience; and to be socially responsible.
