- Has knowledge of intra- and intermolecular forces and the relationship between structure and physicochemical properties
- Has knowledge of different concentration terms, balancing of chemical equations and stoichiometric assessments
- Has knowledge of different types of reactions (redox reactions, precipitation, acid-base reactions and gas-forming reactions)
- Has knowledge of chemical equilibrium in connection with gases, acid-base reactions, solubility and the formation of complexes, with emphasis on pH and acidity assessments
- Has knowledge of thermodynamic principles and the relation between thermodynamics, electrochemistry and chemical equilibrium
- Has knowledge of the main principles of reaction kinetics
- Is familiar with functional groups in organic chemistry
Skills:
The student
- Is able to apply acquired knowledge to perform basic chemical calculations
- Is able to present basic laboratory techniques and follow safety rules in the laboratory
- Is able to assess and report results of laboratory experiments in the standardized manner
General competence:
The student
- Is able to apply acquired knowledge to make assessments in relation to substance structure and physicochemical properties, chemical calculations, equilibrium assessments and practical laboratory work.
In addition to the semester fees and course literature, students are expected to provide their own laptops, web cameras and headphones.
Students must obtain their own laboratory coats, suitable shoes for the laboratory and a calculator approved for the study programme.
Theoretical, compulsory course.
The course is reserved for students in the Bachelor's Programme in Pharmacy.
Teaching takes place on campus and digital.
Lectures (live and digital) self-study, study groups/exercises with written assignments and laboratory courses with related reports. Students are assumed to actively engage in the learning process. Individual work accounts for a high percentage of the course workload.
There is compulsory participation in this course. Reason for compulsory participation: Participation provides skills and general competence that cannot be acquired on your own.
