Professor Sylvia Ceyer explains the standard Gibbs free energy of formation and its relationship to thermodynamic stability. The Second Law of Thermodynamics is defined as it relates to controlling spontaneity with temperature. The lecture concludes by defining the thermodynamic equilibrium constant and the reaction quotient/direction of change in a chemical equilibrium.

Professor Sylvia Ceyer covers radioactive decay and its various uses in modern medicine. Second order half-life, as a second order integrated rate law, is then discussed. The lecture concludes with the overlap of kinetics and chemical equilibrium: the equilibrium constant, elementary reactions, and an example, the decomposition of ozone.

Professor Sylvia Ceyer begins by adding and subtracting half-cell reactions (a continuation of her prior lecture on oxidation/reduction). The Nernst Equation is introduced, which can be used to determine the equilibrium reduction potential of a half cell in an electrochemical cell.

Review. Professor Sylvia Ceyer reviews the main topics covered throughout the second half of the course including kinetics, transition metals, VSEPR theory, acid-base equilibrium, chemical equilibrium, and oxidation/reduction. Professor Ceyer uses the case study of methionine synthase to supplement the discussion.
-
Professor Sylvia Ceyer discusses the classification of acids and bases as they are defined by Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lory, and Lewis acid/base. The pH function (and pOH function) are defined as they relate to the strength of acids and bases (in water). Professor Ceyer then runs through the types of acid-base problems and concludes by discussing equilibrium involving weak acids.

Our understanding of the economy will be more tangible and vivid if we can in principle explain all the economic decisions of every agent in the economy. This lecture demonstrates, with two examples, how the theory lets us calculate equilibrium prices and allocations in a simple economy, either by hand or using a computer. In future lectures we shall extend this method so as to compute equilibrium in financial economies with stocks and bon...more
