"Energy: Its Uses and the Environment" explores the fundamental principles of energy, its various sources, methods of conversion and consumption, and the environmental consequences associated with its use. The course provides a multidisciplinary approach, integrating scientific, technical, economic, and policy perspectives to understand how energy affects society and the natural world. Students will examine both renewable and non-renewable energy sources, including fossil fuels, nuclear power, solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and bioenergy. Emphasis is placed on how energy systems contribute to environmental issues such as climate change, air and water pollution, habitat loss, and resource depletion. Key topics include energy efficiency, sustainability, global energy demand, environmental impact assessment, and the transition to cleaner, more sustainable energy solutions. The course also discusses energy policy, economics, and the role of technology and innovation in shaping a low-carbon future. Through lectures, case studies, and practical exercises, students will develop the skills to critically evaluate energy systems and their environmental trade-offs, preparing them to contribute to informed decision-making in energy and environmental fields.

colloid - ANSa mixture that contains small, undissolved particles that do not settle
out.

suspension - ANSA mixture in which particles can be seen and easily separated by
settling or filtration

concentrated solution - ANSa solution containing a large amount of solute

dilute solution - ANSa solution that contains a small amount of solute

solubility - ANSA measure of how much solute can dissolve in a given solvent at a
given temperature.

unsaturated solution - ANSany solution that can dissolve more solute at a given
temperature

saturated solution - ANSa solution that cannot dissolve any more solute under the
given conditions

supersaturated solution - ANSa solution that contains more solute than it can
