化學動力學

Physical Chemistry seeks to explain chemical processes with energetically evolution and molecular nature of matter, which are the main contents in Physical Chemistry I (Thermodynamics) and Physical Chemistry II (Quantum chemistry), respectively. Thermodynamics can calculate an equilibrium constant, but can not predict the rate to approach equilibrium. Quantum chemistry can compute the energy levels, but it does not provide a simple reason why some energy levels are preferentially populated during reactions. The understanding of reaction rate and mechanism will be treated in Physical Chemistry III. This course aims to provide the basic principles of chemical kinetics and reaction dynamics in graduate level. The updated studies in chemical dynamics will be covered including the use of synchrotron radiation and ultrashort laser. Laboratory tours to visit the advanced light sources and machines will be scheduled.
