Type of delivery of the course
58 hours of theoretical lectures, 24 hours of numerical exercises concerning chemical calculations and solving stoichiometry problems.Attendance
Not mandatory attendance.Type of evaluation
The written exam consists of demonstrating knowledge of compound nomenclature and solving stoichiometry problems (duration 2.5-3 h). Passing the written test allows admission to the oral examination. The oral examination consists of a written test covering 4-5 topics from all course topics, followed by an oral interview.
