  • Enthalpy, Gibbs free energy, termochemistry. Chemical equilibrium, equilibrium constant and its dependence on temperature and pressure. Equilibrium between phases, equlibrium at surfaces.
  • 2. Chemical kinetics and surface processes
  • Elementary reactions and reaction rate. Gas phase kinetics. Surface processes.
  • 3. Quantum chemistry
  • Aproximations. Hartree-Fock method. Basis funtions. Calculation of correlation energy. Program Gamess.
