Annotation
Last update: Nekvindová Pavla doc. Ing. Ph.D. (10.02.2017)
The course extends the knowledge and skills acquired in the GIC I course. It covers the symmetry of polyatomic molecules, theory of molecular orbitals, chemical bonding in coordination complexes, concept of Lewis acids and bases, principles of solid state chemistry, chemical bonding in solids, phase and chemical equilibrium, basic electrochemistry and selected methods and synthesis techniques in the field of advanced and applied inorganic chemistry.
Aim of the course
Last update: Nekvindová Pavla doc. Ing. Ph.D. (10.02.2017)

Students will be able to:

Identify the symmetry elements and operations and to propose and apply the molecular orbital diagrams for polyatomic molecules

Determine the ground state terms of atoms and ions of d-block elements and their energy splitting in ligand field

Assess the acid-base behaviour of ions in aqueous solutions and propose the reaction schemes for Lewis acids and bases

Characterize crystalline solids in terms of symmetry, derive the structure prototypes based on closed packing schemes of atoms and ions, and perform simple crystal chemical calculations (theoretical density, charge balance in non-stoichiometric solids)

Solve the problems involving various types of equilibrium constants, potential phase diagrams, standard reduction potentials and Nernst equations.

Apply an extended knowledge of inorganic substances reactivity.

Requirements to the exam
Last update: Nekvindová Pavla doc. Ing. Ph.D. (10.02.2017)

Two preliminary tests will be written during the semester (6th and 12th week of the semester). For the assessment, the students need to obtain a minimum of 80 marks in total from both tests. The final examination has a written and oral part and covers the contents of both GIC I and GIC II courses.

  • balancing of chemical equations, including ionic equations
  • position of elements in periodic table (PT); trends in properties within the PT (electronegativity, radii of atoms and ions; ionization energy, electron affinity)
  • quantum numbers, atomic orbitals; electron configuration of atoms and ions
  • theory of molecular orbitals for diatomic homonuclear and heteronuclear molecules
  • electron/Lewis structures; VSEPR theory; hybridization
  • type of bonding
  • chemical equilibria (Le Chatelier principle)
  • Bronsted and Lewis theory of acidity; acidity of cations, basicity of anions; predominance diagrams
