Objectives basic understanding and calculation of physical chemistry examples
Subject This course will get a basic understanding in the application of the principles of physical to the study of the life sciences, particularly biological chemistry leading to an understanding of the processes responsible for life. Parallel to the lecture Physical Chemistry I practical it provides examples and related exercises that are calculated and discussed in this class. Topics that are covered are from

  1. Biochemical thermodynamics
    • First and Second Law of thermodynamics
    • Phase equilibria
      • Phase diagrams
      • Thermodynamic description of mixtures
    • Colligative properties
    • Chemical equilibrium
  2. The kinetic of biochemical processes
    • Rates of reactions
    • Rate laws
    • Temperature dependence of reaction rates
    • Complex reactions and reaction mechanism
    • Reaction dynamics
    • Transport phenomena (Diffusion, Viscosity)
  3. Basics in ion and electron transport
    • Transport of ions
    • Redox reaction
    • Standard potential
Criteria for evaluation written exam, attendance, homework
Methods mathematical calculations of examples
Language English
