Learning outcomes |
This course, besides to convey to students basic knowledge of inorganic chemistry, aims to teach the properties of ionic and coordenation compounds, how to quantify their formation energies and how to interpret Latimer, Frost, Pourbaix and Ellingham diagrams

Syllabus |
Introduction to Quantum Chemistry: Shorödinger equation (radial and angular functions).
Properties of the elements of the Periodic Table: effective nuclear charge (Slater rules and Raimondi/Clementi), Electronegativities (Pauling, Mulliken Allred and Rochow).
Ionic compounds: ratio rc/ra and coordination number. Lattice energy: Born-Landé and Kapustinskii equations.
Latimer, Frost, Pourbaix and Ellingham diagrams.
Hydrogen. Hydrides. Oxygen. Oxides. Oxyacids.
Coordination compounds: classical and organometallic complexes. Crystal Field Theory. Octahedral, tetrahedral, tetragonal and square geommetry. Jahn-Teller effect. Stabilization energy of the crystal field. Stability and magnetic properties of the complexes (total spin number). Stability and 18 electrons rule.
Practice – Comparison of the properties of metals of groups I, II and III with those of transition metals. Synthesis of some coordination compounds, their characterization and synthesis yield.
