About Study Course
Objective
To form fundamental basic knowledge in chemistry, which will be helpful in further studies in biochemistry and nutrition science.
Preliminary Knowledge
Inorganic and organic chemistry in the scope of the secondary school course.
Learning Outcomes
Knowledge
1.After studies students will be able: • to identify the main classes of inorganic compounds; • to describe the main characteristics of each class and ability of mutual transformations; • to identify functional groups of organic compounds and main classes of organic compounds; • to use the international nomenclature system IUPAC; • to describe the main characteristics of organic compounds in accordance of belonging to certain class of compounds.
Skills
1.After studies students will be able: • to collect information on certain organic compound (food spice) and to prepare presentation; • to perform simple experiments based on their theoretical knowledge.
Competences
1.A student who has completed the basic chemistry course: • will be able to evaluate various substances, incl. belonging of basic nutrients and spices to a certain class of compounds; • will predict their properties and reactions in various food preparation and biochemical processes.

Independent work in acquirement of theoretic knowledge by writing chemical formulas and chemical equations in class studies in assistance of lecturer and independently at home;
Independent work in purpose of examinations of knowledge (tests, colloquia);
Work with literature, gathering of information about certain substance or product and presentation in lesson.
Tasks:
• to develop logic;
• to develop patience and precision required at work in the laboratory;
• to develop ability to present ones investigation, the ability to hear other thoughts and to discuss;
• to fill in the study course survey, evaluating the existing course content and creating proposals for updating the course.

The final rating forms in a following way:
• 50% of it form average ratings of tests obtained during the course acquisition time (colloquia and presentation);
• other 50% form the rating of the examination.
. It assesses the student's skills:
• to name an inorganic and organic substance according to its chemical formula;
• draw the chemical formula of the inorganic and organic substance after the given name;
• to recognize the functional groups in the molecule of an organic compound and to determine its belonging to a specific class of compounds;
• describe the chemical properties of each class of compounds;
• to predict the possibilities of interconversion of inorganic and organic compounds.
