Spring 2026 Recitation Lecture Distance Learning Lower Division
Basic principles and concepts of thermodynamics applied to chemical engineering problems; use of basic thermodynamic functions of enthalpy, entropy, free energy to solutions, phase equilibria, and chemical equilibria; thermodynamic processes and efficiencies; equations of state; and relation of macroscopic to molecular properties.
Learning Outcomes1Apply the First Law of thermodynamics in the analysis of closed and open systems.
2Apply the Second Law of thermodynamics in the analysis of closed and open systems, and reversible and irreversible processes, including power cycles.
3Derive and apply thermodynamic relations and relationships between thermodynamic potentials.
4Estimate the physical properties of ideal and non-ideal fluids.
5Use chemical potentials, fugacities and activity coefficients to analyze the phase equilibrium behavior of ideal and non-ideal fluids.
6Use chemical potentials, fugacities and activity coefficients to evaluate single and multi-component chemical reaction equilibria for ideal and non-ideal fluids.
7Utilize computational tools in the solution of thermodynamics problems).
