- Course objectives
- The students will be acquainted with the subject of chemistry including the basic branches of chemistry and the importance of chemistry for pharmacists. The course will focus on the following items: fundamental chemical terms and laws, equations for calculating the quantity of substance and concentration, atomic structure, radioactivity, models of atomic orbitals, chemical bond including hybridization, physical states of matter, the periodic law and the classification of elements including forms and the division of the periodic system into groups, and the properties of individual elements in the periodic table.
Seminars will concentrate on problems such as calculating the amount of substance, composition of solutions, diluting and mixing solutions, formation of chemical formulas and balancing equations for stoichiometric calculations, and the calculation of the pH. During practical exercises, the students will be acquainted with the basics of laboratory work and will also prepare some inorganic compounds according to calculated equations. The students will elaborate protocols containing the description of the principle of the method and all calculations including the calculation of theoretical yield which will be compared with the practical yield obtained. - Learning outcomes
- After completing the course student will:
-know basic chemical glassware,equipment and apparatus;
-be able to perform basic laboratory operations independently;
-know inorganic compound nomenclature and basic chemical clculations;
-understand the basic principles of general chemistry;
-know basic chemistry of elements - Syllabus

- Assessment methods
- To obtain credits, it is necessary to meet the following conditions: compulsory participation in seminars and laboratory courses, the obligation to prepare protocols from all practical tasks. Success in continuous tests in nomenclature and calculations at least 60%. Written test exam consist of three parts: nomenclature and calculations, general chemistry and inorganic chemistry. To pass the exam at lest 5O% correct answers is necessary.
- Language of instruction
- English
- Further comments (probably available only in Czech)
- Study Materials
The course can also be completed outside the examination period. - Teacher's information
- How to get the credit and grade for this course:
Students must pass the lab portion of the course in order to pass the entire course.
The requirements for the lab portion:
Attendance of practical class is compulsory. Non-attendance can be compensated at the end of the semester. One or two practicals will be replaced by seminar, which will be focused on calculations based on previous test results. Also these seminars are compulsory.
Requirements for gaining the credit:
- full attendance in all practicals and seminars,
- to hand in all protocols from all practical tasks in accepted form
- at least 60% successfulness in the tests the overall successfulness will be calculated as an average of all tests results,
The exam:
The exam will be written and the test will consist of two parts:
1. Computational problems from general chemistry similar to problems that were
dealt with in the tutorial
For this part are only simple scientific calculators permitted, no mobile phones or any
other material.
2. Questions from general and inorganic chemistry.
To answer this part of the test you may use presentations, textbooks or your notes from the lecture. Using mobile phones or any electronic devices is not allowed.
The duration of each part will be 90 minutes.
Any form of academic dishonesty (e.g., cheating, deception, fabrication, plagiarism,
sabotage, etc.) will result in the test percentage of 0% .
To determine the final grade in this course the percentage will be converted to a letter grade
according to the following grading scheme:
100 90 % A excellent
89 80 % B very good
79 70 % C good
69 60 % D satisfactory
49 50% E sufficient
< 49 % F fail
