Teaching method
Theoretical classes, with digital support and application examples.
Resolution of exercises and application examples.
Laboratory works, illustrating basic experimental techniques, security rules, physical properties and simple chemical reactions.
Evaluation method
Theory (2) and laboratory (1).
The theoretical evaluation consists in 3 Tests (min. 7.0 in 3th) during the semester and/or final examination.
The experimental evaluation is defined in the Laboratoy Guide.
