Content

Gas equations (general, the Van der Waals and Virial), states of matter, physical chemistry phenomena such as viscosity, solubility, surface tension, diffusion, cohesion, adhesion, adsorption, electro chemistry and phase equilibrium

Prerequisites

Inorganic Chemistry and Laboratory Work

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2)

Knowing: The student can the basic concepts and phenomena of physical chemistry such as the laws of homogenous and heterogeneous mixtures, principles of pure matter and ideal phase equilibrium. In addition, the student understands the basics of surface and colloid chemistry and the most important electrochemistry applications.

Acting: The student manages the assigned tasks under supervision/assistance.
Being: The student can give and receive feedback, can work in a group, takes responsibility for his/her own work.

Assessment criteria, good (3-4)

Knowing: The student applies the principles to new situations.
Acting: The student applies substance matter learnt in previous studies, makes a plan/plans before carrying out tasks, limits tasks/problems to have an appropriate scope, solves problems.

Being: The student can give and receive feedback actively and constructively, can cooperate responsibly and is ready to develop his/her interaction skills. Recognizes and follows the important courses of action in the field. Takes responsibility and commits to the group activities in addition to his/her own work.

Assessment criteria, excellent (5)

Knowing: The student has versatile and fluent ability to analyze phenomena realizing the limitations related to theories in use.
Acting: The student can search for diverse solution alternatives, justify his/her choices, assesses new solution alternatives, combines solution alternatives creatively or creates new ones.
Being: The student can cooperate responsibly, flexibly and constructively, develops his/her own and the group's interaction, works responsibly and in a committed manner considering the community and field requirements and needs.
