Class Status
within Educational
Program
(Applicable only to targeted subjects for undergraduate students) This class treats many applications of thermodynamics offered in "Basic Physical Chemistry A" to chemical phenomena. It provides a physicochemical interpretation of various macroscopic properties on the basis of the chemical potential. Their molecular understanding will be obtained in the class "Physical Chemistry II A."
Criterion referenced
Evaluation
(Applicable only to targeted subjects for undergraduate students) Chemistry
（Knowledge and Understanding）
・To thoroughly understand and learn knowledge of physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry and organic chemistry.
・Understanding and acquiring logical frameworks and structure of basic studying and knowledge and skills necessary for learning construction.

Class Objectives
/Class Outline The knowledge studied in the class "Basic Physical Chemistry A" now applies to various macroscopic chemical phenomena, such as phase equilibrium and chemical equilibrium, on the basis of the chemical potential. The concept of ideal and regular solutions is treated as the thermodynamics of solutions. Exercises are provided when necessary.
