Course content
|
Atomic structure. Chemical bond (covalent, coordinate bond, ionic bond, metallic bond). Weak chemical interactions and its significance for properties of substances. Interaction of electromagnetic radiation with molecules, methods basen on these interactions (UV-VIS spectrophotometry, IR spectrometry, NMT spectroscopy). Gases, liquids, solids - characteristic. Fundamentals of thermodynamics (state functions, chemical equilibrium, spontaneous processes and changes in state functions during these processes). Solutions - solubility, colligative properties. Fundamentals of electrochemistry and principles of selected electrochemical methods - potentiometry, conductometry, polarography. Chemical kinetics - rate law, influence of temperature on reaction rates, 1st and 2nd order reactions, reaction mechanisms, catalysis. Coloids - optical and kinetic properties. Selected separation methods (extraction, chromatography, electrophoresis). Exercises related to the theoretical principles introduced in lectures.
