Chemistry (FKK_037)
About Study Course
Objective
To form fundamental basic knowledge in chemistry, which will be helpful in further studies in biochemistry and nutrition science.
Prerequisites
Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry.
Learning outcomes
After studies students will be able:
To identify the main classes of inorganic compounds;
To describe the main characteristics of each class and ability of mutual transformations;
To identify functional groups of organic compounds and main classes of organic compounds;
To use the international nomenclature system IUPAC;
To describe the main characteristics of organic compounds in accordance of belonging to certain class of compounds.
After studies students will be able:
To collect information on certain organic compound (food spice) and to prepare presentation;
To perform simple experiments;
To perform simple analytic tests according to main functional groups of organic compounds.
After the successful acquisition of the basic study course of chemistry students will be able:
To detect belonging of certain substance (for example, food spice) to a certain class of organic compounds;
To predict the properties and reactions of the substance in different processes of food preparation and biochemical transformations.
