Aika ja paikka
Lessons are given according to the curriculum mainly on Mondays and Fridays. There are also two lectures on Tuesdays (Apr 11th & May 2nd).
Tenttien ja uusintatenttien ajankohdat
- The first interim exam ("a half exam") is on April 24th (date subject to change)
- The second interim exam ("a half exam") is on June 9th
- The first final exam is on June 9th.
- The exam retake dates will be announced during the course.
- Note that you can try a failed final exam again two times (grade 0)
- Note that you can try to get a better grade only once by taking the final exam again.
- This is allowed, if you have already gotten a grade 1 to 4.
Arviointimenetelmät ja arvioinnin perusteet
Grading will be based on the following (preliminary) point system:
TWO INTERIM EXAMS
points /36 18 21 25 28 33
grade 1 2 3 4 5
FINAL EXAM
points / 30 15 18 21 24 27
grade 1 2 3 4 5
Arviointiasteikko
0-5
Opiskelumuodot ja opetusmenetelmät
The course will be given in English via Zoom. The course consists of lessons, voluntary exercises and exams.
- You can earn 1 - 4 extra points for doing the exercises (points are added to a passed course (grade 1 or higher)).
- Exercise sets will be published at the bottom of the Moodle page.
Oppimateriaalit
The course will follow the following book closely: Physical Chemistry, 8th edition or later (Peter Atkins & Julio de Paula)
It is not necessary to buy the book. Lecture material will be published in Moodle and is sufficient to pass the course (grades 1-5).
Sisällön jaksotus
The course is divided into two major topics:
- Equilibrium thermodynamics
- Chemical kinetics
Processes at solid surfaces may also be covered (probably as extra material).
Toteutuksen valinnaiset suoritustavat
- To pass the course the student will have to do either two interim exams or one final exam.
- Note: The student must pass both interim exams in order to pass the course (9/18 points for each interim exam).
- Interim exams have four (or five) assignments each and you can choose to do three (or four) of them (at maximum).
- Final exam has six or seven assignments and you can choose five at maximum.
- The student must get at least half of the points of the final exam to pass the course (15/30 points).
