Module objectives/intended learning outcomesAfter completing the lectures with various models and strategies, students are able to analyze the properties of chemical kinetics through the ideal gas kinetic theory approach in relation to the factors affecting reaction rate, reaction mechanism, and activation energyAfter completing the lectures using the case method along with various methods and strategies, students are able to conclude the reaction rates of first-, second-, and third-order reactions based on experimental graphs, calculate their rate constants, and correctly and systematically analyze chain, branched, and equilibrium reaction mechanismsThrough problem analysis and review of relevant research findings, students are able to apply research results to solve reaction kinetics problems in adsorption, biodegradation, and chemical kinetics related to their own research
ContentThis course covers the theory of gas kinetics, Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution, collision theory, and transport properties of substances as determinants of the rate of chemical reactions, including elementary reactions, consecutive reactions, unimolecular reactions, and complex reactions, as well as their mechanisms. Upon completing this course, students are expected to be able to predict the time required for a chemical reaction to occur through the rate-determining step, forecast the possible mechanisms, and analyze the dynamic properties and energy changes involved in various processes.
