Students are able to

  • assess chemical hazards (sources) and behave accordingly.
They know about
  • the basics of chemistry
They can
  • actively and passively follow chemistry-related topics (in the professional environment as well as in other courses, eg Materials Science, Corrosion & Corrosion Protection, Batteries and Accumulators, etc.). (Ideally, even simpler chemical calculations should be carried out independently.)

An introduction to the basics of chemistry, with a focus on physical chemistry and basic stoichiometry:

  • Basic Terms & Chemical Sign Language
  • PSE
  • Physical states and state changes
  • Fundamentals of inorganic nomenclature
  • Basics of stoichiometry (chemical computing)
  • Chemical equilibria
  • Basics of reaction kinetics and catalysis
  • Acids, bases and buffers
  • Oxidation states and redox reactions
  • Basics of electrochemistry
  • Electrochemical energy storage
  • Corrosion and corrosion protection
  • Basics of toxicology and safe working with chemicals
