“…Chemical thermodynamics is one of the most popular yet notoriously difficult chemistry subjects that abounds in misconceptions for students (Anderson, Taraban, & Sharma, 2005;Brook, Briggs, Bell, & Driver, 1984;Cotignola, Bordogna, Punte, & Cappannini, 2002;Erickson, 1979Erickson, , 1980Goedhart & Kaper, 2002;Grayson, Harrison, & Treagust, 1995;Junglas, 2006;Laburú & Niaz, 2002;Lewis & Linn, 1994;Linn & Songer, 1991;Meltzer, 2004;Mulop, Yusof, & Tasir, 2012;Patron, 1997;Schönborn, Haglund, & Xie, 2014;Sokrat, Tamani, Moutaabbid, & Radid, 2014;Sozbilir, 2001Sozbilir, , 2003Sözbilir, 2004). Comprising a wide range of fundamental concepts such as heat, temperature, enthalpy and energy changes, thermodynamics holds a crucial role in understanding all types of chemical phenomena, making it so popular and also challenging for students (Jasien & Oberem, 2002;Krummel, Sunal, & Sunal, 2007;Olgun, 2008;Pétursson, 2003;Sözbilir, 2004;Yeo & Zadnik, 2001).…”

“…Propose and expose of the theory of the case study, c.) Propose and expose of the theory as part of the Long-term Project, d.) Multi-project in an integration in the curriculum. e.) Accommodate the ability of learners (Sokrat et al, 2014). In order to facilitate the development of teaching methods in the field of Chemical Physics delivery of material, some learning methods have been reported to contribute and excellence achievement of learning outcomes.…”

“…This makes conceptualization easier for the teacher, and for students with solid mathematical background, because formal concepts can be derived based on sound logic. Unfortunately, the reliance on mathematics may be a stumbling block for chemistry and biochemistry students [1]. Importantly, the crucial role of mathematics in chemistry is frequently not sufficiently emphasized in undergraduate curricula [2].…”
