Learning outcomes |
This Course aims to give an introduction to the study of general chemistry. It is intended that the student perceives, develop and apply fundamental knowledge in general chemistry, namely:
Use the Periodic Table as a tool in understanding the chemistry of the elements.
Understanding the theories of chemical bonding and determine the geometry of the molecules. Relate the physical properties of substances with intermolecular forces.
Solve problems with gas, with emphasis on the use of the ideal gas law and Dalton's law.
Classify solids according to the chemical bond and its crystal structure.
Use the crystal field theory to predict the structure and properties of transition metal complexes.
Understand the laws of thermodynamics and its application in chemistry.
Knowing and applying the fundamental concepts of chemical kinetics.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The methodology of teaching is:
Verbal - The transmission of the contents of each module is based essentially on exhibition, however, the aim is also that there is room for Interrogation / Explanation leading the group dialogue.
Active - Execution of individual and group work, including exercises and laboratory experiments. These
modalities are associated with the modules of the course and allow students to take responsibility and socialize.
