Course Description:
This course is intended for the semester three students in the field of Chemical and Process
Engineering discipline and introduces the knowledge on chemical kinetics and thermodynamics.
This subject area deals with both chemical thermodynamics and chemical kinetics and is intended
to provide the students with tools and understanding to handle basic problems involving chemical
systems at equilibrium and rates of simple chemical reactions.
Prerequisites: None
Aim: To teach the concepts of Chemical Thermodynamics to students so that they will be able to
apply this knowledge to analyze and solve real world problems related to reactive systems.
*Outcome-based Assessment:
• Tutorials/ written exam questions for students to apply their knowledge of the basic concepts in
Chemical Kinetics and Thermodynamics(LO1, LO2, LO3, LO4, LO5and LO6)
• Tutorials for students to analyze and solve problems by applying first law of thermodynamics
to reactive systems and solve problems related to chemical equilibrium.(LO1, LO2 and LO6)
Assessment weighting
Students must attend all the practical sessions in order to pass the course.
