Learning outcomes
The practice of stoichiometric calculations and the skill in handling inorganic compounds will be proved and enhanced with lab preparations and methodologies of increased difficulty
Course contents
Students will get confidence and skill on manipulating chemicals as main group and transition metal salts.
Main group elements:chemistry of selected anions: oxo-, hydroxo-; peroxo-halide- anions; polinuclear oxo-anions; synthesis of the peroxoborate anion; sol-gel silicate glasses from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS); synthesis of K3[Al(ox)3]. Transition metal elements: descriptive chemistry; general periodic trends; representative reactions of the more usual cations of the first row transition metals. Some spectroscopic characterization and physical properties of the synthetized compounds..
