Prerequisites
NOW ( C7777 Handling chemicals )
Basic knowledge of general and inorganic chemistry. Writing chemical equations, stoichiometric calculations, and calculations of solution concentration and mixing will be used extensively.
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is offered to students of any study field.
Course objectives
Basic laboratory course in inorganic preparative chemistry. It aims to introduce students to syntheses, properties and structures of simple inorganic compounds such as oxides, halides and other salts, acids and their functional derivatives, and complexes.

Teaching methods
Laboratory course covering preparations of selected inorganic compounds and keeping of the lab notebook.
Assessment methods
Graded credits are awarded if: (1) synthesized products are submitted in reasonable yields and purity; (2) laboratory reports to all exercises are submitted and approved by the teacher; (3) student can show an understanding of each completed laboratory exercise and related principles and calculations (stoichiometry, concentrations, titrations) and knowledge of properties of prepared compounds. Periodical check-up of knowledges by written tests.
Language of instruction
Czech
