Hours of instruction:

Weekly: four hours of lectures + six hours of labwork (4+0+6)

Goals:

Inorganic Chemistry provides the foundation for the understanding of the properties of all the elements in the periodic table. That is why Inorganic Chemistry is crucially important for the comprehension of other fields of Chemistry. Within this course students should primarily learn about metal complexes, including organometallic compounds and metal clusters.

Outcome:

This course should provide an opportunity for students to gain knowledge and understanding of the properties of the metal complexes. In this way students can understand various processes that include metal ions, from catalysts to the living organisms.

Teaching methods:

Lectures, experimental exercises, theoretical exercises, seminars
