Assessment
Unaided Work:
Solving situational tasks. It is recommended to complete the study course survey, evaluating the current course content and making proposals for updating the course.
Assessment Criteria:
Tests, colloquia, accuracy of practical work, written exam. The final grade of the study course consists of the average grade of the colloquia (50%) and the exam grade (50%).
Final Examination (Full-Time):Exam (Written)
Final Examination (Part-Time):
Learning Outcomes
Knowledge:Successful completion of the course will result in knowledge that will allow: - to describe the content of methods for the qualitative analysis of inorganic chemicals; - to understand how to apply qualitative and quantitative analytical methods.
Skills:At the end of the study course, the student is able to do the following: - to perform qualitative analysis of inorganic substances; - to apply them in practice, for the qualitative analysis of therapeutic substances; - to evaluate the results of the analysis.
Competencies:At the end of the study course, the student will know how to do the following: - recommend and justify the most appropriate qualitative methods for the analysis of inorganic chemicals; - qualitatively determine impurities in substances.
