Introduction

The students should learn how to utilize the following tools and concepts to
understand and to analyze their related research problems. Quantitative analyses
and to estimate orders of magnitude in practical examples will be emphasized.
1. First-order reaction
2. Pseudo-first-order reactions
3. Steady-state approximation
4. Boltzmann distribution
5. Molecular partition functions
6. Transition state theory
7. Molecular Collisions (Hard sphere model, ...)

Outline

1. Kinetic Theory of Gases
2. The Rates of Chemical Reactions
3. Theories of Chemical Reactions
4. Photochemistry
5. Molecular Reaction Dynamics
