Aim of the course

The aim of the course is acquire skills and competences in solving technical problems in engineering based on the basic laws of inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry and selected issues of physical chemistry, as well as performing calculations and conducting experiments in the areas covered by the subject area.

Prerequisites

Knowledge of basic and extended secondary school chemistry.

Scope

W1: Structure of the atom. Structure of the electronic environment of the atomic nucleus. Periodic table of elements. Radioactivity.

W2: Bond theory. Chemical laws, stoichiometry. Phase structure of matter - gases, liquids and solids.

W3: Theory of electrolytes. Buffer solutions. Colloidal solutions. Phase equilibria.

W4: Thermodynamics and thermochemistry. Parameters, thermodynamic functions and principles of thermodynamics.

W5: Reversible and irreversible reactions, equilibrium state of chemical reactions. Rate of chemical reactions. Kinetics of simple, parallel, successive and chain reactions. Temperature dependence of reaction rates.

W6: Fundamentals of electrochemistry. Voltage series of metals. Cells, potential-forming reactions. Nernst equation. Fundamentals of electrochemical corrosion of metals and alloys. Surface phenomena.

W7: Fundamentals of organic chemistry. Systematics of aliphatic and aromatic organic compounds.

Laboratory:

Assignment conditions

- Lecture: written exam preceded by a pass in exercises and laboratories.
- Laboratory: the condition for passing is the attendance at all classes (absences are made up), presentation of a report and active participation in classes. Arithmetic mean of the marks obtained from the individual laboratory classes.

- Final evaluation: A prerequisite for passing the course is the completion of all its forms. The final course grade is the arithmetic mean of the grades for individual forms of the course.
