Course description:
|
|
The laboratory exercises are illustration and supplements for problems which are the subject of Inorganic Chemistry I lecture. They comprise the following issues of Inorganic Chemistry: properties and applications of main group elements, metal and non-metals, properties and applications of transition metals and their complexes, intercalation, nonstoichiometric compounds, multi-center inorganic compounds and metallocenes, concepts of acids and bases Bronsted and Lewis and ions solvation. During experiments students carry out synthesis and investigation of inorganic compounds, coordination compounds, organometallic compounds using UV-VIS and IR spectroscopy, NMR, pehametry, potentiometry and other electrochemical methods.
