- The course is only offered to the students of the study fields the course is directly associated with.
- fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
- Cosmetic Products (programme FaF, B-KOSM)
- Course objectives
- The course is intended primarily for first-year students of the Bachelor's degree programme Cosmetic Products. Its content is focused on the explanation and practice of basic chemical calculations and chemical nomenclature of inorganic compounds, which the student will subsequently use in other, especially chemical subjects such as General and Inorganic Chemistry, Chemistry of Organic Substances, Basic Practical Classes in Chemistry, Introduction to Analytical Chemistry, etc. The teaching will be in the form of seminars. In particular, basic nomenclature of inorganic compounds and calculations from chemical equations, stoichiometry, expression and recalculations of solution concentrations will be practiced. Emphasis is placed on understanding the basic principles underlying these calculations.
- Learning outcomes
- Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to:
- write the formula for a simple inorganic compound from its name and vice versa;
- express the composition of compounds by different chemical formulas, calculate the composition of compounds in relation to their stoichiometric formula;
- balance chemical equations and perform calculations from chemical equations;
- calculate the composition of solutions (mass and volume fraction, molar concentration ...);
- calculate the pH of solutions of acids and bases;
- perform calculations using logical reasoning (direct and inverse proportion) without using formulas (if possible). - Syllabus
- Chemical nomenclature of inorganic compounds.
- Basic chemical terms, types of chemical formulas, stoichiometric calculations.
- Solutions - concentration calculations (mass fraction, volume fraction, molar fraction, molar concentration, mass concentrations, diluting and mixing solutions, crystallisation).
- Chemical equations (balancing and calculations from chemical equations).
- Calculations of pH, pKa, hydrolysis of salts, buffers.
