CHE 300 — THERMODYNAMICS AND INTRODUCTION TO QUANTUM MECHANICS (CUR-199)

CHE 300 — THERMODYNAMICS AND INTRODUCTION TO QUANTUM MECHANICS is a DePaul University catalog course in College of Science and Health. This course will cover topics in thermodynamics, including thermodynamic laws, chemical potential, and both phase and chemical equilibria. In addition, the postulates of quantum mechanics will be discussed, and these postulates will applied to simple systems, allowing spectroscopic applications to be explored.
