Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
Learning Outcomes of UE
Understand the notion of chemical equilibrium and be able to apply it to the chemical reactions ; Understand the basis of chemical reactions, with an overall understanding, and be able to make the connection with some daily natural or industrial applications ; Understand the operation of simple electrochemical systems (batteries and electrolyzers) and the mechanisms of metallic corrosion ; Understand how molecular dynamics or the presence of a catalys acts upon the chemical reactions kinetics so as to be able to control it and size up a chemical reactor. Understanding the main unit operations.
Content of UE
Reminder of the principles of thermodynamics ; reaction tendency ; covalent and metallic bonds ; solid state and band theory ; electrochemistry (batteries, electrolyzers and metallic corrosion) ; coupled reactions; reactor sizing ; catalysis and solvent effects ; unit operations.
Prior Experience
Understanding of the following concepts: chemical bonding ; electrostatic interactions; solute-solvent interactions ; ionic structure ; chemical affinity ; equilibrium constant ; entropy ; enthalpy ; kinetic theory of gases.
Type of Assessment for UE in Q1
Q1 UE Assessment Comments
Graded exercise, 20 % of the mark, maximal duration : 90 min (only exercises). Laboratory (reports and laboratory work), 20 % of the mark. Oral examination, 60 % of the mark, maximal duration : 60 min (after receiving the question, the student may read over his course notes for maximum 20 min and afterwards write his answer on transparent slides that he will present. The accent is put on the understanding of phenomena and concepts rather than on the memorization).
In case of necessity or if constraints related to the health situation require it, the oral examination could be done in writing and/or the tests could possibly be done in remote mode.
Type of Assessment for UE in Q3
Q3 UE Assessment Comments
Graded exercise, 20 % of the mark, maximal duration : 120 min (only exercises). Carryover of the first session mark if > 60 %. Laboratory : carryover of the first session mark, 20 % of the mark. Oral examination, 60 % of the mark, maximal duration : 60 min (after receiving the question, the student may read over his course notes for maximum 20 min and afterwards write his answer on transparent slides that he will present. The accent is put on the understanding of phenomena and concepts rather than on the memorization).
In case of necessity or if constraints related to the health situation require it, the oral examination could be done in writing and/or the tests could possibly be done in remote mode.
