Hours of instruction: |
Weekly: four hours of labwork (0+0+4) |
Goals: |
The goal of the course Laboratory Work in General Chemistry is to help students develop practical skills of working safely in a chemistry laboratory and the basic experimental techniques which will be used in the subsequent courses. Students will also be taught how to correctly present the result of a measurement or an experiment they have performed and how to use basic chemical calculations for solving practical problems. |
Outcome: |
Mastering the fundamentals of experimental work, mastering the basic chemical calculations; ability to understand and participate in the subsequent chemistry courses. |
Teaching methods: |
Experimental exercises. |

Labwork: |
30 points (4 hours a week)
Syllabus:
- Laboratory glassware and equipment
- Basic chemical operations and separation methods
- The condensed state
- The properties of gases
- Solutions
- Chemical kinetics
- Calculation problems
- Calculation test
- Chemical equilibrium
- Equilibria in electrolyte solutions
- Ionic reactions
- Equilibria in aqueous solutions of salts
- Electron transfer reactions
- Calculation problems
- Calculation test
- The last class in which students can make up for what they have missed and in which their lab notebooks are checked and signed by the teacher.
Note: Laboratory classes are organized in the winter semester. Students have to attend the laboratory classes. They have to do and defend every exercise. A student has to meet the following requirements in order to take the exam:
- a) completed all laboratory exercises planned by the syllabus, which means that the exercises have been done experimentally and defended in writing (at least 2 out of 3 questions done correctly), which should be verified by the signature of the course assistant in the lab notebook.
- b) at least 51% of the total number of points assigned for the pre-exam activities, i.e. at least 15.3 out of 30 points.
- A student can be assigned a maximum of 6 points for being active in laboratory classes.
- A student can be assigned a maximum of 12 points for each calculation test, which makes a total of 24 points.
