Lectures: 1. Introduction, basic concepts: repetition of course General Chemistry 1. 2. Laws of thermodynamic: application for affecting systems of substances - evaporation, phase changes etc. 3. Phase equilibriums and their use for preparation of nanomaterials. 4. Electrical and magnetic properties of nanomaterials and impact on their properties. 5. Practical applications of disperse systems - colloidal silver, interaction of colloidal particles, clustering, zeta potential and its measurement. 6. Chemical equations: reaction kinetics of chemical processes, thermodynamics of chemical processes, thermochemistry and chemical equilibrium. 7. Reaction of substances in aqueous medium: dissociation constant, acids and bases, acid-base properties and reactions, pH value and salt hydrolysis. 8. Oxidation-redox reactions, their application on interaction problems of iron nanoparticles in the environment, bond and acid-base and redox reactions, Pourbaix diagrams. 9. Principles of Organic Chemistry: overview of common groups of organic compounds, their characteristics and properties; application of organic compounds for nanofibres preparation; principles of polymerization. 10. Principles of Biochemistry - relationship to the toxicity of nanomaterials, sensors etc. Tutorials: Themes of tutorials follow the lectures. Test in the 8th week.

Learning outcomes
|
The goal of course "General Chemistry 2" is to deepen the knowledges gained in the course "General Chemistry 1" particularly to focus on Applications of nanomaterials (ANM). The course focuses on the application of acquired principles and processes in the broader context of general chemistry, i.e. with links to organic chemistry, biochemistry and radiochemistry. To understand these applications, the individual lectures and seminars will be focused on issues of nanomaterials, therefore, they will be explained in terms of nanoparticle or nanofiber structures. The course assumes basic knowledge of chemistry and mathematics acquired in the compulsory lectures. The lectures are followed by tutorials (range of 2 h per week).
After completion of lectures and exercises, student will be able to understand basic tasks related to basic principles of organic and physical chemistry, and partly also in biochemistry and radiochemistry. Student will be capable to use acquired knowledges and understand current experimental methods and chemical principles used particularly in the field of application of nanomaterials and their characterization.
