Learning outcomes: During the course the student gains a theoretical knowledge and practical skills useful in solving technological problems, learns the structure of the atom and periodic table of elements, understands the nature of chemical bonds. The student extends the knowledge of basic chemical concepts and laws related to the evaluation of the environmental pH, buffering and neutralization processes. The student learns how to distinguish and separate basic groups of natural products - fats, amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates.
Competences: Completion of the course will be useful in evaluation state of the environment, meaning the chemical processes occurring in the environment and used in the industry.
Prerequisites:
Course content: General Chemistry: atomic structure and periodic table of elements. Chemical bonds. The concept of a chemical reaction. Types of chemical reactions. The kinetics of chemical reactions.Chemistry of aqueous solutions: dissociation, neutralization and hydrolysis, pH, buffer solutions, the oxidation and reduction, chemical calculations. Organic chemistry: nomenclature, properties and reactions of aliphatic, aromatic and heterocyclic compounds containing common functional groups. Reaction mechanisms of organic compounds. Introduction to the chemistry of the main groups of biomolecules: lipids, carbohydrates, amino acids and proteins and their role in living organisms.
