3. Course Objectives
The primary objective of this lecture is to provide a better understanding of chemical kinetics and reaction dynamics at the molecular level.
To understand chemical reaction dynamics at the molecular level, we need to study the intermolecular interactions, statistical properties of molecules, and collision dynamics.
We begin with the kinetic theory of gases and macroscopic chemical kinetics, then we will delve into the theory of chemical reactions, transport properties, reactions in condensed phases, photochemistry, and molecular reaction dynamics.
