Intended learning outcomes (Knowledges, skills and competencies to be developed by the students)
To give the student a broad view of the fundamentals of Chemistry in the scope of his basic scientific training, essential to the understanding of matters such as industrial processes, mass and enthalpy balances, materials and corrosion.
Specific objectives - skills to be acquired (knowledge and skills):
-Know the atomic structure (introductory approach), the orbitals and quantum numbers;
-Be able to write electronic configurations, identify the group and period of the element;
-Understand how chemical bonding is established between atoms (introductory approach);
-To be able to write Lewis's formula, to identify the geometry and polarity of a molecule;
-Know concentration units of solutions;
-To be able to make the necessary calculations for the preparation of solutions;
-To be able to prepare solutions in the laboratory;
-To be able to do stoichiometric calculations, determining quantities of required reagents and products obtained;
-Know the difference between irreversible reaction and chemical equilibrium and know the various types of chemical equilibrium;
-Be able to determine the pH of solutions of acids and bases (strong and weak);
-Be able to do acid-base titrations and choose appropriate indicator;
-Be able to determine the errors associated with analytical techniques;
-Be able to work in the laboratory, complying with safety rules.
Syllabus
-Atomic and Molecular Structure
Atomic orbitals and quantum numbers. Periodic table.
Chemical bonding. Lewis formulas and resonance contributors. Molecular geometries. Dipole moment of bond, resulting dipole moment and polarity of the molecule.
-Concentration Solutions
Units of concentration. Preparation of solutions.
-Stoichiometric Calculations
Balancing chemical equations. Stoichiometric calculations. Limiting Reagent. Yield of the reaction. Gases and Equation of the Perfect Gases.
-Acid-base equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium, equilibrium constant.
Concepts of acid and base. pH scale. Autoprotolysis of water. Anfoterism. Acid and base strength, Ka and Kb. Determination of the pH of solutions of acids and bases.
-Solubility equilibrium
Product of solubility and determination of the solubility of a salt.
-Oxidation-reduction and Electrochemistry
Balancing redox equations. Oxidation numbers. Standard reduction potential and reference electrodes. Galvanic and electrolytic cells. Potential difference.
-Thermodynamics Chemistry (if possible)
Laws of Thermodynamics. Enthalpy. Endo- and exothermic reactions. Entropy. Gibbs energy and spontaneity of reactions.
Demonstration of the syllabus coherence with the UC intended learning outcomes
The classes have theoretical-practical typology, aiming at the operationalization of the concepts. Participative and nteractive method is adopted. It is intended to lead students to draw conclusions, guiding them in this process.
The CU has a laboratory component, aiming to illustrate in practice the theoretical concepts. In the laboratory classes, the students execute experimental works according to provided protocols and answer in the class the respective results sheet/questionnaire.
Teaching methodologies
The CU has a laboratory component that allows, in accordance with UC objectives:
-the operationalization of the concepts taught;
-the development of the scientific and experimental spirit;
-the learning of laboratory techniques and skills;
-development of teamwork.
Assessment methodologies and evidences
The student can choose a continuous evaluation or exam:
1. If you wish to be evaluated by exam, you will obtain approval if you have a grade of 9.5 or higher.
2. If you choose continuous assessment, you will carry out 2 tests during the semester:
1st test: 12/11/2018 (Monday) (during class time TP)
2nd test: 14/1/2019 (Monday) (during class time TP)
In order to pass, you must have a grade of 8.5 or higher in each test and an average greater than or equal to 9.5 val. in both tests.
If you get a grade of 8.5 or higher in the first test, you can recover the evaluation of the 2nd test at the exam date.
Students with recognized status of Worker-Student who miss more than 1 laboratorial work, will carry out in the final exam, a specific group specifically related to the laboratory component of the CU.
Worker-students who choose to perform continuous assessment (tests) and who miss more than 1 laboratory work, should also answer this specific group on the laboratory component of the CU, on the date of exam.
Attendance system
-To carry out a continuous evaluation, the Student must have a minimum frequency of 75% of TP classes.
-Without the attendance of the laboratory classes and delivery of the respective results sheets / questionnaires, the student will not be approved in the CU. It is allowed a MAX. of 1 missing laboratory work.

Observations
-Clarification of Doubts (Carla Gamelas, F205): Monday, 12:30; Wednesday, 12:30 p.m. Friday, 10:30 am
IMPORTANT: Students who wish to clarify doubts, should send e-mail to the Teacher (carla.gamelas@estsetubal.ips.pt) until the previous business day, indicating this intention.
-The materials of support (slides, exercises and laboratory protocols) are in Moodle.
-It is compulsory to register for the evaluation tests within the established deadlines.
-The use of mobile phones during classes and evaluation tests is prohibited.
-Working Students, Athletes of High Competition, Association Leaders and Students under the Law of Religious Freedom should send an email to the Responsible Teacher (carla.gamelas@estsetubal.ips.pt), until the second week of the semester, to present their relevant specificities, in accordance with the provisions of the respective diplomas.
-Students wishing to consult the evaluation tests (tests or exams) should send an email to the Responsible Teacher (carla.gamelas@estsetubal.ips.pt), until one week before the next test, expressing the intention to exercise this right.
