Fundamentals of Chemistry 2 (5 ECTS)

Objective

The student will adopt both theoretical and practical skills for using analytical methods and she/he will learn to benefit from these in his/her studies and later in the working life.
The student knows the principles of formation and structure of organic compounds. He/she is able to name and draw organic compounds and understands the fundamentals of organic reactions.

Content

Acid-base equilibria, pH, buffer solutions
2. Gravimetric analysis
3. Titrimetric analysis (acid-base-, complexometric -, precipitation-, redox- and potentiometric titrations)
4. Structure and nomenclature of organic compounds

5. Fundamentals of organic reactions and reaction mechanism

Materials

Daniel C. Harris: "Quantitative Chemical Analysis" (9. ja 10. painos)
(samat teoriat ja laskutehtävät ovat myös vanhemmissa painoksissa, tosin tehtävänumerot ovat usein erit)

Teaching methods

Aktivoivat luennot (analyyttinen kemia) ja verkkotehtävät (orgaaninen kemia)

Exam schedules

Analyyttisen kemian tentti (Mian osuus) pidetään ma 12.12.2022 klo 13-15.

Kaksi uusintatenttiä pidetään kevätlukukaudella 2023. Ajankohdat ilmoitetaan myöhemmin.

Assessment methods and criteria

Painotus: Analyyttinen kemia (Mia) 60%, Orgaaninen kemia (Esa) 40%

Analyyttinen kemia: Liuoslaskutentissä kaikki tehtävät pitää olla oikein. Lopputentissä hyväksytyn suorituksen raja on 50 % pisteistä. Laskuharjoituksista saa lopputenttiin pisteitä seuraavasti: 90-100 % tehtävistä tehty 5 pistettä, 80-89% 4 pistettä, 70-79% 3 pistettä jne.
