Course content
Solving chemical calculations, basic concepts, reviewing and extending the knowledge of inorganic chemistry nomenclature, introduction to the new translation of IUPAC nomenclature. Model problems on the composition of substances and preparation of solutions, calculations of concentrations, composition and dilution of solutions will be solved. Attention will be paid to practicing stoichiometry, calculating chemical equations. Calculations from chemical equations are an essential part.
