General Chemistry
1655-Lek11CHEM-J
Lectures:
The lectures include a program covering the characteristics of the solutions (strong and weak electrolytes). Ion product of water. Buffer solutions. Water and osmotic balance. Osmotic pressure. Solubility. Colloidal solutions.
The tutorials will be devoted to familiarizing with basic chemical reactions, analysis of selected ions of elements, quantitative analysis, analysis of buffer operation, observation and analysis of osmotic balance during the dialysis process, planning systematic analysis of organic compounds.

W2: characterize the structure and describes the operation of buffers (B.W2)
W3: explains the concepts of solubility, solubility product, colloidal solution, osmotic pressure (B.W3)
W4: discusses the Donnan equilibrium phenomenon (B.W3)
Learning outcomes - skills
U1: calculates the molar and percentage concentrations of the solutions (B.U3)
U2: calculates the values of the osmotic pressure and the concentration of substances in iso-osmotic, single and multi-component solutions (B.U3)
