AIMS AND CONTENT

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

The training activities proposed in the form of lectures, teaching delivery, integrative teaching, exercises and numerical applications, associated with individual study, will allow the student to:

- identify the main chemical compounds

- solve numerical exercises on the balancing and stoichiometry of chemical reactions.

- know the atomic structure;

- understand the mechanisms of formation of the strong and weak chemical bond;

- know the structure of solids, liquids and understand the state equations of gases;

- discuss all the proposed activities with a scientific method and appropriate language

 

TEACHING METHODS

The teaching strategies adopted include a mixed and active approach, alternating moments of frontal lessons, asynchronous online lessons, and interactive teaching. In particular, the following will be used:

Front-class lessons to introduce the fundamental theoretical concepts (in presence).

Online lessons to deepen the contents through videos, multimedia materials and asynchronous reinforcement activities, encouraging autonomous and personalized learning.

E-tivity to stimulate individual reflection and collaborative comparison, through forums, digital tasks, interactive quizzes and creative productions, in asynchronous and synchronous mode.

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

Part 1

Inorganic nomenclature (Oxides, anhydrides, hydroxides, acids, salts)

Stoichiometry of reactions

Stoichiometric calculations (chemical reactions and quantitative calculations)

Solutions (Percentage composition, mole fractions, Molarity)

 

Part 2

Atomic structure of matter (Atomic models, quantum numbers, wave functions, Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, Pauli Exclusion Principle, Construction of atoms)

Periodic classification of elements and properties of groups

Atomic bond (covalent, ionic, metallic bond, weak bonds)

 

Part 3

Nuclear chemistry

Gas laws (Boyle's law, Charles's law, Gay–Lussac's law, Avogadro's law, Equation of state of ideal and real gases, the volume of gases in chemical reactions)

The Liquid State and Phase Diagrams

The Solid State

RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY

The notes taken during the lessons and the material in the aulaweb are sufficient for the preparation of the exam, but the following book is suggested as supporting and in-depth text.

- M. Panizza, Chimica per Ingegneria (teoria ed esercizi)

On the aulaweb site of the course there are examples of final tests proposed in previous years with the related solutions

EXAMS

EXAM DESCRIPTION

The exam consists of a written test that includes both exercises and theoretical questions with optional oral (the student who has passed the written test with a grade greater than or equal to 18 out of thirty can decide whether to take an oral exam on the established days or accept the mark of the written test). Some examples of exams can be found on aulaweb. The results of the exams will be published on the aulaweb.

The written test can be repeated, but in this case the grade of the last written test is valid.

To access the oral exam, students must have passed the written exam with a minimum grade of 16/30.

The oral exam is structured on 3 questions, mainly theoretical on all the topics covered in class. The grade obtained in this module will be the average of the written and oral test.

The grade obtained in teaching will be the average of the marks awarded in the two modules in which the teaching is divided.

ASSESSMENT METHODS

The exam tests with the student will allow:
evaluate the knowledge of the atomic structure;
verify the understanding of the mechanisms of strong and weak chemical bond formation;
evaluate understanding of the structure of solids, liquids and understanding of the gas state equations;
to evaluate the knowledge of the main thermodynamic quantities involved in the transformation of matter and the conditions of the chemical equilibrium;
verify the ability in the quantitative evaluation of gaseous equilibriums, in aqueous solutions and in electrochemical systems;
discuss all the proposed activities with a scientific method and appropriate language.

FURTHER INFORMATION

Working students and students with SLD, disability or other special educational needs are advised to contact the teacher at the beginning of the course to agree on teaching and examination methods that take into account individual learning modalities.
