The aim of this course is to provide understanding of the fundamental of chemical thermodynamics and equilibrium involving gases, liquids and solutions, analysis of phase equilibrium as well as the kinetics of reactions. The delivery methods throughout the course includes lectures, discussion, test, quiz, assignments and final examination. The communications and problem solving skills in students shall be cultivated and developed throughout the course.
CLO1 : Describe the understanding of the theoretical and fundamental concepts in physical chemistry (PLO1, LOD1, C2)
CLO2 : Manipulate the theoretical knowledge to solve numerical problems related to physical chemistry (PLO2, LOD10, C3)
CLO3 : Adopt personal skills in completing task related to the major concepts in physical chemistry (PLO5, LOD8, A2)
Weekly videos are uploaded in YouTube to help students learn better.
This is a community service program (Program SULAM) between students registered in the Physical Chemistry BWK10103 course and schools around Muar District, Johor. In this event, school children (both primary and secondary) compete to make a functional hot air balloon model with the items provided the Physical Chemistry students.
From this activity, the students shall brush up their communication skills and knowledge to explain to the school children on the functionalities and theories behind the hot air balloon activity. This activity was joined by SK Kampung Balang Darat, SK Temiang, SMK (P) Sultan Abu Bakar and SMK Sri Muar.
