Inorganic chemistry : from molecules to materials
multiple choice question 30 mn
The objective of this course is to give the rules of construction of all inorganic and mineral systems but also to show how much this inorganic chemistry is alive and has many applications in current problems (energy, environment, information storage, nanotechnologies…). An introduction to the industrial mineral chemistry industry completes the course (cements, glasses, aquatic chemistry, batteries). The theoretical part focuses on transition metal and lanthanide complexes and describes in particular their optical and magnetic properties.
At the end of the course, the student knows the periodic table and the trends of the different elements (ionization, complexation, orbital levels). He can describe a mineral system and choose between two simple approaches to describe inorganic complexes according to two ion binding or covalent binding models. He can explain the stability and reactivity of inorganic molecules based mainly on transition elements or elements of the p-block.
