2500897 Chemical Engineering | OB | 1 | 2 |
Basic knowledge of general chemistry. General knowledge of the elements of the Periodic Table and its reactivities. Formulation and nomenclature of inorganic chemicals.
Context
The Chemistry Balance course is taught in the Degree in Chemical Engineering as a basic subject within the first academic year. It is an introductory and also finalist course, since it has no continuity in the Curriculum.
Targets
Acquire the basic knowledge to understand and solve the problems related to the heterogeneous and homogeneous ion balance in aqueous media. Understand and apply successive approaches to the simplified resolution of systems in balance. Know the acid-base assessments and how to choose an appropriate indicator.
Although the teacher will use the master class to transmit knowledge of the nuclear aspects of each subject, the student must be an active part of the learning process (interactive master class). In this sense, initiatives on inquiry, motivation and the process of knowledge of things will be promoted, having the student to create them and adapt them to their own learning process. The students will carry out laboratory practices with the aim of completing and reinforcing the knowledge acquired in the theoretical classes and seminars. The teacher will carry out orientation, guidance and reinforcement tasks of those aspects that present more difficulty. There will be plenty of bibliographical material available to students, including theoretical contents and also exercises. To encourage critical reasoning, discussion and reflection on the part of the student, work groups will be enabled in the problem classes and in the seminars in order to complete the learning process through group discussion.

The assessment will be individual and will be carried out continuously in the different training activities that have been programmed.
Individual written tests: Two partial exams will be done that will include the contents covered in the different lessons, whose weight will be 75% of the final grade.
At the end of the course, it will be possible to perform a recovery test for all students with the subject not passed and have the practices with a mark higher than 5.0.
Laboratory reports: 5 practical sessions are programmed. The practices will be done in pairs. At the end of each practice you will have to complete a report (by partner) that will be delivered before the end of each session (45 minute time to complete the report).
The note of each report will be the mark obtained for each member of the pair of students. All practical sessions are mandatory. An unrealized practice (and not justified by the professor's criteria) will be an automatic suspense of the subject.
The professor responsible for the subject will evaluate the cases of faults justified by the student. The note obtained in each practice report will be supplemented by a note from the laboratory's book and attitude.
The total weight of the final mark of practices will be 20% on the final mark of the subject.
Delivery of exercises and works: Throughout the course the student will have to deliver exercises that will be proposed by the teacher. There will be exercises that will have to be done in class, and others will have to do the self-study of the student.
In no case will the days scheduled for the exercises be scheduled and there will be no prior notice. All exercises will be mandatory and the weight will be 3% on the final grade.
Attitude in the formative activities: Active participation, face-to-faceassistance, as well asthe attitude in the different training activities such as master classes, problems, seminars and practical sessions of laboratory, will have a subjective assessment by the teacher and will have a weight of 2% on the final grade.
It will be considered NOT EVALUABLE as a final grade when any of these cases are met:
- Missing all laboratory practice sessions
- Do not perform individual written tests (partial) and do not do the FINAL exam
To pass the subject, it is necessary to obtain a score equal to or greater than 5.0 on 10 in the FINAL NOTE while satisfying the following conditions:
- Have laboratory practices with a average grade equal to or greater than 5.0 out of 10
- Be attended to all the sessions of laboratory practices (2 theoretical + 5 practices). If there is any lack of assistance, it must be duly justified.
- Have a mark equal to or greater than 4.5 out of 10 in the average mark of the individual written tests (partial).
Right to the recovery exam:
- In the event of not approving the subject with all the requirements mentioned above, the student will be entitled to a RECOVERY EXAMINATION OF ALL THE MATTER.
To pass the subject and do the weighted average of this recovery test with other evaluable activities, it is mandatory to remove a RECEIPT EXAMINATION NOTE equal to or greater than 5.0, but in this case, only the weighted average will be made
with one value of NOTA RECOVERY EXAM equal to 5.0.
- Once the weighted average of all the activities evaluated has been done, to pass the subject, the FINAL NOTE (eg recovery) will have to be ≥ 5.0.
FINAL NOTE (for partial) = PARTIAL NOTE (≥ 4.5) * 0.75 + PRACTICAL NOTE (≥ 5) * 0.20+ (EXERCISES+ ATTITUDE) * 0.05
FINALNOTE (ex. recovery) = NOTE RECOVERY EXAM (all subject)(5.0 if the NOTE RECOVERY EXAM ≥ 5.0) * 0.75 + PRACTICAL NOTE (≥5) * 0.20 + (EXERCISES + ATTITUDE) * 0, 05
If the PARTIAL NOTE is <4,5 and / or the NOTE RECOVERY EXAM is <5.0, the academic record will be a note of 4.5 (suspended), if the FINAL NOTE is equal to or greater than 5.0 .
COVI-19: Any suspended student who has a laboratory practice grade higher than 6.5 out of 10 in the 2019-2020 course, may keep this note (only if it is not possible to do the practices in person) for the 2020-2021 course and It will not be compulsory to do the laboratory practices again.
If it is possible to carry out the laboratory practices in person, the laboratory sessions will be compulsory obtaining a new evaluation note.
