| Course abstract | |
| „Chemistry I” program focuses on generality of the chemical elements and compounds, transformations and properties of inorganic compounds. To improve knowledge and skills training materials, individual work-tasks and laboratory works which illustrate the dynamic nature of general, inorganic and environment chemistry in ones field are provided. | |
| Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
| After completing the course student will have: knowledge and understanding of inorganic compounds, their properties, generality and practical significance of transformations; knowledge basis to help in further studies and self-perfection, as well as basic knowledge about different qualitative and quantitative methods for determination of chemical compounds composition; skills to think analytically and be creative to apply in practice generality of chemistry in both studies and ones professional work; competence to acquire, select and evaluate new information in an equitable fashion independently and use it to solve issues and problems related to chemical analysis. | |
