1. Define if the sentences are true (t) or false (f).
1. Physical chemistry is essential to understand the complex processes and molecules characteristic of biological systems and modern materials.
2. Spectroscopy is concerned with the process of obtaining substances.
3. The bridge between thermodynamics and structural studies is called statistical thermodynamics.
4. Dynamic electrochemistry is concerned with the rates of electron-transfer processes.
5. There is no any distinction between physical chemistry and chemical physics.
6. Quantum mechanics is the branch of physical chemistry.
7. The condition when there is no further net tendency to change is called equivalence.
8. Physical chemistry is traditionally divided into a number of disciplines, and the distinction between them is strong.
9. Thermochemistry is the study of how chemical reactions can produce electricity and how electricity can drive chemical reactions in "reverse" directions (electrolysis).
10. Chemical kinetics shows how the rates of reactions respond to changes in conditions or the presence of a catalyst.
