Learning outcomes
Module: Theory
-------
The course provides the fundamental concepts of General Chemistry and some basics of Inorganic Chemistry. In particular:
- models and general concepts as means of justification and prediction of physical and chemical properties of systems of increasing degree of complexity: atoms, molecules, substances, multi-component systems (homogeneous and heterogeneous).
- concepts and methods for predicting qualitative and quantitative changes of intensive and extensive properties of chemical systems in transformation.
Module: Laboratory
-------
Numerical exercises integrate the knowledge acquired by the student in the theoretical part of the course. They are essential for the student in order to improve the skills to solve real problems of chemical interest.
The experiments in the General Chemistry laboratory integrate the knowledge acquired by the student in the theoretical part of the Course. The student learns how to manage problems of chemical interest, obtains information about the common equipment present in a chemical laboratory and how to work in safe conditions.
Program

Graduation
Attendance modes and venues
As stated in the Didactic Regulations, attendance is compulsory for practical and laboratory exercises (see courses with laboratory in the annex), unless otherwise stipulated by the teaching board.
Attendance at lectures is strongly recommended.
Part-time enrolment is permitted. To find out more, please consult the Part-time enrolment possibilities page.
The course's teaching activities take place in Villa Lebrecht and Villa Eugenia, located in the San Floriano di Valpolicella campus, and may also take place in the other spaces of the Science and Engineering area, which is composed of the buildings of Ca‘ Vignal 1, Ca’ Vignal 2, Ca' Vignal 3 and Piramide, located in the Borgo Roma campus,
Lectures are held in the classrooms of Villa Lebrecht while practical exercises are carried out in the teaching laboratories dedicated to the various activities.
Overview of courses with laboratory.
The attached document specifies the courses, divided by year, that include exercise/laboratory CFUs: for this type of CFU only, attendance is compulsory in order to be admitted to the examination.
