● 課程說明(Course Desc<x>ription)
<br>This course includes three major parts: basic thermodynamics, solution 
<br>thermodynamics/binary phase diagrams, and chemical reactions. The first part 
<br>includes the three laws of thermodynamics, auxiliary functions, and free 
<br>energy calculation. The second part starts from gas behavior, one-component 
<br>system, solution behavior, and finally binary phase diagram. The third part 
<br>teaches gas-gas reactions and gas-solid reactions. Students will learn the 
<br>physical meaning of the three laws of thermodynamics, the calculation of 
<br>thermodynamic functions and the applications of thermodynamics in materials 
<br>science. This course aims to provide a basis for a variety of subsequent 
<br>courses in Materials Science.
