Course Description
The assessment of the experimental class is mainly in the form of experimental reports.
Chemistry is a subject with strong practicality.Through the experiment of inorganic chemistry, deepen our understanding of the basic theory of inorganic chemistry, inorganic compound material and reaction performance, get familiar with the general separation and preparation methods of inorganic compounds, and master the basic experimental methods and operational skills of inorganic chemistry.To cultivate students' ability to think and solve problems independently, and lay a good foundation for the students to study and work.The main task of this course is: master the correct use of inorganic chemistry experiment instrument and the basic skill of experiment operation;Master the properties, preparation and purification methods of simple substance and compounds of common elements;Deepen the understanding of the basic principles and basic knowledge of Inorganic Chemistry; Learnmethods for the determination of certain constants;Cultivate the correct observation and recording of chemical reaction phenomena, analysis, synthesis and induction experiment phenomenon, correctly handle the data, drawing instrument equipment and complete experiment reports;Training rigorous scientific attitude of seeking truth from facts, to develop accurate, meticulous, serious, clean experimental habits.
