Learning Outcomes
Competences
After successfully completing the course, students are able to explain basic concepts of general and inorganic chemistry. They are able to describe chemical processes and phenomena as well as the underlying interactions. They are able to use mathematical methods to calculate relevant chemical quantities.
Skills Knowledge
Upon completing the course, students learn the following skills. They are able to

  • derive the chemical properties of elements using the periodic table, analyze chemical bonds and perform simple chemical calculations (k1-k3);
  • describe chemical reactions, equilibria, acid-base interactions, and redox processes (k2/k3);
  • explain and calculate electrochemical processes (k2/k3);
  • explain the properties of simple inorganic compounds (k1/k2).
During the course, students acquire knowledge in the following areas of general and inorganic chemistry:

  • quantum theory;
  • thermodynamics;
  • chemical equilibrium;
  • chemical kinetics;
  • acids and bases;
  • electrochemistry;
  • chemical elements;
  • metals;
  • non-metals.
