Content

Lectures: disciplinary (solubility and complexation equilibria; gas solubility) and transversal (project management, modeling and communication) skills
Practicals: Use of spreadsheets to (i) solve - individually then by two students - problems related to the prediction of chemical equilibria, (ii) carry on a project by groups of 6 students, around a question linked to daily life and resting on chemical equilibria.聽The聽outcome of this project is presented orally to the聽other students.

Teaching methods

Resolution of problems through the modeling of chemical equilibria. Individual work in the聽beginning of the聽semester, work by groups of two students in the middle of the semester, then in groups of 6 students at the end of the semester.

Evaluation methods

Grades are given聽throughout the semester (individual and group reports - continuous evaluation).
Part A: individual work - homework and/or tests - 50% of final grade
Part B: work by groups of 2 students - 10% of final grade
Part C: work by groups of 5 to 7 students - oral presentation of the聽project and submission of the related聽calculation file - 40% of final grade
No exam in June. In case the credits of the聽course were not acquired at the end of June session, an exam will be proposed in August to replace the grade of part A of the聽evaluation solely. There is no second chance for parts B and C.
Note that individual penalties are applied in case of absence to the聽practical聽sessions or to any other compulsory activity, as extensively advertised during the course and on the聽Moodle platform of the聽course.
