Abstract
Chemistry II: Redox reactions, chemistry of the elements, introduction to organic chemistryIn the course "Chemistry II", the competencies of process understanding, system understanding, modeling, concept development and data analysis & interpretation are taught, applied and examined.
Objective
General base for understanding of inorganic and organic chemistry.
Content
1. Redoxreactions 2. Inorganic Chemistry Rules for nomenclature of inorganic compounds. Systematic description of the groups of elements in the periodical system and the most important compounds of these elements. Formation of compounds as a consequence of the electronoc structure of the elements. 3. Introduction to organic chemistry Description of the most important classes of compounds and of the functional groups. Principal reactivity of these functional groups. Stereochemistry. Rection mechanisms: SN1- and SN2-reactions, electrophilic aromatic subtitutions, eliminations (E1 and E2), addition reactions (C=C and C=O double bonds). Chemistry of carbony and carboxyl groups.
