CHEM T 570 Nuclear Chemistry (Graduate)

This course covers fundamentals concepts and applications of nuclear chemistry and radiochemistry. Topics covered may include nuclide types (stellar origin and distribution), nuclide stability (quantum structure and binding energy), types of nuclear reactions (radioactive decay, fusion, and fission), kinetics of radioactive decay (secular equilibrium, transient equilibrium), isotope effect (chemical equilibrium, phase equilibrium) and applications of radioelements (nuclear power, medical uses, technological uses).

Prerequisite: Undergraduate degree in Chemistry or a related field or IDOE licensure in chemistry.
