Lesson 4 Physical Chemistry 第四课 物理化学 Physical Chemistry looks at chemistry from a different angle to inorganic and organic chemistry. Whereas these branches study the reactions of different groups of elements and compounds, physical chemistry uses mathematics and physics to determine laws which describe the way chemical reaction happen. 物理化学是从无机化学和有机化学的不同角度看待化学。鉴于这些分支研究不同群体的元素及化合物之间的反应，物理化学采用数学和物理基本规律对以一定方式发生的化学反应加以描述。 Energy, Structure and Rate So physical chemistry deals with Thermodynamics or the energy levels and changes involved in chemicals and chemical reactions. It also deals with the Quantum Mechanics of chemicals. This is the atomic and molecular structure of the chemicals. Finally it deals with Kinetics or the rates of reactions and how they are changed. 能量，结构和率 所以物理化学处理的是热力学问题或者是涉及到化学物质和化学反应热力学的能量高低的变化的问题，同时，还处理化学物质的量子力学问题，这是具有原子和分子的化学物质。最后，它还涉及到动力学的反应速率，以及它们如何被改变。 Obscure but Fundamental It could be argued that this is the least interesting of the branches of chemistry. It involves lots of mathematical formulae and obscure theories involving Greek letters. Of course these concepts are also vital for many important processes in nature and in many of the equipment we take for granted. 模糊但重要 有人可能认为这是最有趣的分支化学，它涉及到大量的数学公式和模糊理论包括希腊字母。当然，这些概念也是至关重要的本质上为许多重要步骤,但在很多的设备我们认为是理所当然的。 翻译：08.2 李娟 0810420211 Energy Changes Thermodynamics involve changes in energy. Changes in heat energy cause changes in temperature, which is foundational to cooking, refrigeration and transport. Chemical reactions which produce heat are exothermic, such as in burning fuel or an exploding bomb. This usually means that chemical bonds have been broken. Chemical reactions which take heat in are called endothermic and usually mean that chemical bonds have been formed. 能量变化 热力学涉及能源的变化。热能变化的温度，这是基础烹饪，冷藏及运输事业的变化。化学反应而产生热量的放热反应，如燃料燃烧或爆炸的炸弹。这通常是指化学键被打破。化学反应而采取的热量，通常被称为吸热意味着已经形成化学键。 Atomic Structure Quantum mechanics deals with the structure
