Inorganic Chemistry II 1200-1CHN2W6
The program of the second part of the lecture in Inorganic Chemistry includes the description of chemical properties of selected elements and their compounds, as well as substantial extension of knowledge about coordination compounds. For every group of the elements not only detailed properties are discussed, but also common features with other elements are shown, in order to indicate the possibilities of various generalizations, helpful in understanding the discussed properties and the trends in their variations in the Periodic Table. In detail there is presented chemistry of hydrogen, oxygen (including fuel cells), sulfur, selenium and tellurium, including, among others, the catenation as the process crucial for the occurrence of allotropy of these elements, and molecular structures of oxyacids. Extensively there is presented the chemistry of nitrogen, both elemental (including economically important problem of nitrogen fixation) and its compounds, including ammonia, hydrazine, hydrogen azide, nitrogen oxides (including the biological importance of NO), oxyacids (mainly HNO3 and its different reaction schemes with various metals). Analogous information (supplemented with the occurrence of allotropic forms) is given for phosphorus, arsenic, antimony and bismuth. With respect to halogens, the differences between fluorine and other elements of this group are strongly emphasized and the compounds at various oxidation states of these elements are presented. Such classical presentation of the properties of the elements is further followed with the information about superconductivity that is an example of specific properties exhibited by some species at low temperatures. Another feature of that type is superfluidity of helium, discussed later as a part of presentation of noble gases, which is also includes chemical compounds of xenon. Concerning the inorganic compounds of carbon, both diamond and graphite (including chemical reactions involving the latter one) and more recently discovered allotropic forms are presented: graphene, fullerenes, nanotubes, nano-onions, nanocapsules. The examples of intercalation compounds are shown. The lecture in carbon chemistry includes further information about transition metal carbonyls and carbides. In a synthetic manner there are presented selected properties of boron, silicon and their compounds. The last part of the lecture is devoted to the comparative review of lanthanides and their selected compounds.

Main fields of studies for MISMaP
Type of course
Mode
Learning outcomes
After completion of the course the student:
- knows basic components of matter and their properties, knows properties of chemical elements based on periodic law, knows elementary quantum theory of atoms and molecules (qualitative orbit model). Knows fundamental concepts and laws of chemistry, symbols of the elements, chemical nomenclature and notation, knows and understands the notation of equations of chemical reactions.
- knows fundamentals of inorganic chemistry, covering properties of chemical elements and their compounds
- is able to apply laws of chemistry for the analysis of selected chemical problems
- is able to analyze problems from the area of inorganic chemistry, including geometrical and electrion structure of molecules. Is able to describe and explain fundamental types of chemical reactions and their mechanisms
- is able to apply the concepts and qualitative models of quantum chemistry for the analysis and interpretation of properties of atoms and molecules and in course of simple chemical reactions
- is able to speak and write precisely and coherently on subjects concerning with chemical problems
- is able to independently learn and develop his/her professional capabilities, using various sources (printed and electronic), also in foregin language
- understands the need and recognizes the possibilities of continuous education. Is able to search independenty for information in the literature sources, also in foreign languages
- is convinced about the importance to behave in a professional manner and observes the professional ethical rules
knows the scope of his/her knowledge and acquired abilities, understands the need to go up with professional and personal competences.
Assessment criteria
The exam is written (5-6 open questions that require descriptive answers). The final grade is based on the arithmetic average of partial grades, at least 50% of the material must be mastered. The resit examination has the same form and method of assessment. Detailed, current exam requirements are sent to students after the last lecture in a given semester.
Pursuant to the New Study Regulations, participation in lectures IS MANDATORY (attendance at lectures is recorded). the number of absences allowed is 4 lectures. These requirements are also substantively justified due to the factual material which deviates from that given in typical textbooks and should lead to an improvement of exam marks.
Practical placement
none
