JNTUK B.Tech Physical Chemistry for R13 Batch.

JNTUK B.Tech Physical Chemistry gives you detail information of Physical Chemistry R13 syllabus It will be help full to understand you complete curriculum of the year.

Learning objectives

  • The students will learn the basic concepts of distribution law, phase rule, chemical kinetics, solutions, spectro-photometry and separation techniques.
  • The distribution law helps in understanding how a solute is distributed between two immiscible solvents; and also in selecting conditions for extraction of solutes (particularly naturally occurring products).
  • Phase rule explains the equilibrium existing between the different phases of a heterogeneous system, solubility limits in a ternary system of water and two other liquids; construction of the solubility curve of the system; distribution ratio of the miscible component in the immiscible phases.
  • Study of chemical kinetics explains the rates at which chemical reactions occur and also explains theories of reaction rates (Collision theory, Transition state theory) – rates of different chain reactions –Steady state approximation- these are important for chemical engineers to design equipment.
  • The study of solutions is to understand the total vapor pressure of ideal or non-ideal mixtures of two volatile liquids as a function of chemical composition, miscibility of liquids, ideal and non ideal solutions – distillation methods– azeotropic mixtures.
  • Study of fundamentals of spectroscopy gives an understanding of qualitative and quantitative analysis of substances (functional groups, ions, elements) and also helps in handling the spectrophotometers.
  • The study of Chromatography is useful in quantitative and qualitative analysis of mixtures, and also to understand the mechanism by which components are separated on GC and HPLC techniques.
