Statistical Mechanics (University of Toulouse 3)

The objectives of the course are to explain the macroscopic behavior of systems through their microscopic description and to present the universal characteristics in the study of thermodynamic systems.

1. Thermodynamics Review
2. A More General Approach to Statistical Thermodynamics

III. General Considerations on Systems of Identical Particles Without Interaction

1. Applications of Boltzmann Statistics
2. An example of how another statistic is used: blackbody radiation.

Hourly volumes*:

CM: 30

TD: 10

Apply the appropriate concepts and technologies to manage and solve problems in various fields of chemistry and physical chemistry.

- Model chemical phenomena or systems, or interpret experimental results.

- Validate a model by comparing its predictions with experimental results and assess the limits of its validity.

- Develop an argument using critical thinking.
