Summary

The purpose of this discipline is to define the thermodynamic method to predict the evolution of a system. This problem amounts to minimizing an energy which must be described correctly in the case of pure bodies or mixtures. At the end of this course, the student must know the theoretical tools to study the evolution of chemical reactions or build and use phase diagrams.

Educational goals

The objective of this course is: 1 / to assimilate the relationships and fundamental principles of thermodynamics (principles of thermodynamics, thermodynamic potentials, thermoelastic quantities, heat capacities) 2 / to describe the thermodynamic properties of pure bodies (state equations, fugacity) and mixtures (partial molar quantities, chemical potentials, activities, mixture and excess quantities, solution models) 3 / to use these notions to predict the evolution of a transformation (affinity, displacement of equilibria, law of mass action, Ellingham diagram) 4 / to know the basic principles of construction of a phase diagram and to know how to describe them (types of binary diagrams and characteristic points) At the end of this course, the student must have acquired the following skills: 1 / knowing how to calculate the thermodynamic properties relating to pure bodies and mixtures and exploit their graphic representations 2 / knowing how to use these thermodynamic properties and the different diagrams used in practice (phase diagram, Ellingham diagrams) to predict the evolution of a system

Continuous Assessment
Comments: 1 mid-term written exam (duration: 1h30) + 1 final written exam (duration: 2h)

Online resources

Solved problems of thermodynamics online on the intranet. Course handout and exercise sheets.

Pedagogy

A part of these concepts is approached in self-training through the reading of a handout (relationships and fundamental principles) or the study of solved problems available on the intranet and dealing mainly with chemical equilibria, equilibrium displacements (influence of the total pressure, dilution, concentration, temperature), calculation of an equilibrium constant (calculation of enthalpy and standard reaction entropy) and the driving force of a chemical reaction. In the lectures, the thermodynamic properties of pure bodies and mixtures, the thermodynamics of transformations and phase diagrams are detailed and discussed. Tutorials allow to come back to these concepts and apply them (principles of thermodynamics, state functions, chemical potential, reaction quantities, evolution and equilibrium of a system, variance, displacement of chemical equilibrium, solid - liquid binary equilibria, liquid - vapor binary equilibria)
