Course objectives (in Czech)
Semináře jsou doplňkem k předmětu Lékařská chemie-přednáška EMLC0111p. V jeho rámci jsou aplikovány a procvičovány znalosti z obecné, anorganické, organické a bioorganické chemie.
Learning outcomes
The student will:
- understand the basics of general, inorganic and organic chemistry to the extent necessary for further study of biochemistry - be able to apply general physicochemical laws to processes in living organisms - be able to describe the properties of the most important biogenic elements and compounds important in medicine, nutrition and toxicology - be able to describe and discuss the properties and reactions of organic and bioorganic compounds important for understanding biochemical processes.
Syllabus
  • Properties of particles, moles and molar quantities, composition of solutions, basic calculations.
  • Electrolyte dissociation, ion activity, ionic strength, osmotic pressure, osmolarity.
