Learning outcomes
The course aims at provide students with theoretical and laboratory knowledge in the areas of thermodynamics (calorimetry), of ion transport (conductimetry) and electrochemistry.
Course contents
The necessary arguments to deal with later laboratory experiments are first introduced at the theoretical level. The focus is on calorimetry and thermoanalytical techniques (at equilibrium and scanning), on the theory of ion transport (strong and weak electrolytes, transport number, Einstein, Nernst-Einstein, Stokes-Einstein equations), on electrochemical systems (coefficient of activity, galvanic and electrolytic cells, Nernst equation, the Nernst scale of the electrochemical potentials). The second part of the course will consist of laboratory experiments of conductimetry and electrochemistry.
