Preparatory Problems<br />
Fields of Advanced Difficulty<br />
Theoretical<br />
Kinetics: integrated first-order rate equation; analysis of moderately complex<br />
reactions mechanisms using <strong>the</strong> steady state approximation, <strong>the</strong> use of <strong>the</strong> Arrhenius<br />
equation, simple collision <strong>the</strong>ory<br />
Thermodynamics: electrochemical cells, <strong>the</strong> relationship between equilibrium<br />
constants, electromotive force and standard Gibbs energy, <strong>the</strong> variation of <strong>the</strong><br />
equilibrium constant with temperature<br />
Quantum mechanics: calculation of orbital and spin angular momentum, calculation<br />
of <strong>the</strong> magnetic moment using <strong>the</strong> spin-only formula<br />
Spectroscopy: interpretation of relatively simple 13 C and 1 H NMR spectra; chemical<br />
shifts, multiplicities, coupling constants and integrals<br />
