Course description and aims
This course provides the fundamental knowledge on the chemistry of inorganic materials.
In the first half, physics, chemistry, structure and properties of various kinds of inorganic materials are lectured. Those are intended to be the fundamental for science and engineering of ceramics. In the latter half, the basic principles of acid-base and redox properties of inorganic materials in solutions, and the structure and electronic states of complex compounds are introduced.
Student learning outcomes
This lecture aims to learn the followings for understanding the inorganic materials and their properties.
Learn about the electric structural features of the elements appearing in periodic table.
Learn about the knowledge on the features and properties of the inorganic compounds containing various kinds of elements.
Learn about the origins of the varieties of structure and elements in inorganic compounds.
Learn about the acid-base and redox properties of inorganic materials in solutions.
Learn about the structures and electronic states of complexes.
Keywords
inorganic compound, chemical bond, periodic table, acid-base, redox, complex
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
The course is divided into 2 parts.
In the first half, the chemical composition and crystal structures of inorganic materials which affect to their physical properties would be studied in addition to the summarization of various knowledges on orbits and chemical bonds.
In the latter half, the knowledge for the acid-base and redox properties of inorganic materials in solutions is introduced, and the students will also learn about the correlation between the structure, electronic state, and properties of inorganic complexes.
