DEVELOPING GENERAL AND SPECIFIC COMPETENCIES OF STUDENTS:
Introduction to environmental pollutants and how to detect and determine them.

STUDENT'S OBLIGATIONS:
Attendance at lectures, laboratory exercises, 3 written partial exams.

CONDITIONS FOR OBTAINING SIGNATURES:
Regular attendance at lectures and completed laboratory exercises.

TEACHING METHODS:
Lectures. Experimental work in the laboratory in small groups.

MANNER OF EXAMINATION OF KNOWLEDGE AND EXAMINATION:
Written exam. Three written partial exams are taken: inorganic, analytical and organic. The overall score is the average of the achieved result. The inorganic part includes 10 tasks, 5 numerical tasks and 5 theoretical tasks. To pass, 60% of the total number of points on the written exam are required.

METHOD OF MONITORING THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF COURSES:
Student survey

METHODOLOGICAL PREREQUISITIES
Attended lectures and completed exercises from the courses General Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Organic Chemistry.

COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES:
At the end of the course the student will be able to:
1. Explain the formation of chelated metal compounds with natural ligands (humic and fulvic acids) and artificial ligands such as polyphosphate, EDTA, NTA, citrate, etc.
2. Be able to calculate the concentration of metal ions in equilibrium with the chelate complex at various pH values of the solution.
3. Be able to calculate the concentration of metal ions in a solution containing sulfide and carbonate ions at various pH values of the solution knowing the data on total sulfur and total carbon.
4. Using Purbeix diagrams for various molecular and ionic species, propose methods for their removal from the environment.
5. Explain the methods of measuring the concentrations of metal ions with ion-selective electrodes and voltammetric striping analysis
6. Explain the basic processes in the biosphere and the interaction of environmental components.
7. Apply the principles of "green" chemistry in basic organic reactions and modern organic synthesis.
8. Define the approach to chemical analysis of the environment
9. Recognize the sample from the environment (water, soil, air) and be able to choose the method of analysis depending on the tested pollutant
10. Distinguish the approach to the analysis of traces of pollutants in the environment (soil, water, air) from the analysis of macro components

LEARNING OUTCOMES AT PROGRAM LEVEL
