Organic chemistry is a branch of chemistry that deals with the study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions and synthesis of natural or synthetic organic compounds that, by definition, contain carbon. This course provides an introduction to organic chemistry and lays the foundation for the basic concepts necessary for students pursuing scientific careers, particularly in chemistry, biology, biochemistry and health studies.

After some reminders of classical mechanics we will approach the fundamental quantities of thermodynamics: elementary work, macroscopic...
The distinction heat/temperature will be exposed at length.
The notion of pressure will be exposed macroscopically while giving however the microscopic interpretation.
Then with a historical approach we will show how the principles 1 and 2 could have been stated
From there applications will be seen: cycles, perfect/real gas....
Thanks to the introduction of changes of state, examples (critical point) will be exposed.
We will finish with thermics: essentially diļ¬usion. Depending on the remaining time notions about radiation will be exposed.

This is a transversal practical work unit intended for students majoring in physics, mechanics or EEA in the L1 PCSI portal. These practical works will allow students to acquire fundamental notions from the 3 disciplines (physics, mechanics, EEA), which are essential for the continuation of studies in the chosen speciality or in view of a gateway between the other disciplines.
