TFKI78 Inorganic Chemistry, 3 p (sw)
/Oorganisk kemi/

Advancement level:
B

Aim:
The aim of the course is to give fundamental theoretical knowledge of inorganic chemistry as well as some practical laboratory experience - thereby, the course gives a good basis for further studies in chemistry and biology. Laborations aim to shed light on the theory and to give the student skills in basic laboratory techniques of inorganic chemistry.

Prerequisites:
Attended TFKI 76 General chemistry, TFKI 77 Physical chemistry.

Course organization:
The course consists of lectures, lessons and laboratory work. At major seminars are equilibrium calculations treated. Lesssons including problemsolving with connection to some parts of the theory presented at the lectures, are also included.

Course content:
Theoretical part: weak and strong acids and bases and the corresponding Brönsted and Lewis definitions of, pH, acid-base equilibiria, titration curves for acids and bases, buffers, Henderson-Hasselbalchs equation, solubility and solubility products, complex-ion equilibria. Descriptive inorganic chemistry: properties of and chemical bonding in metals and non-metals. Crystalline and amorphous compounds. The concepts of crystal structure, lattice and unit cell. Applied inorganic chemistry (materials chemistry). Nuclear chemistry. Coordination compounds. The laboratory course includes, among other things, an acid-base titration, synthesis of zeolites and complexes, including the determination of the ligand field splitting of the latter by spectrophotometry.

Course literature:
Ebbing-Gammon 6th. ed.: General Chemistry.

Course language is swedish.
