KF2340 Chemical Sciences 15,0 hp

Advanced modules of lectures and seminaries covering specialist topics in chemical engineering, polymers and fiber based materials are taken, together with an individual research project.

You should be able to use correctly the language appropriate to chemical sciences. Specifically, you should:

• be able to define, recognize, comprehend, and use correctly every word which is emphasized in the course materials.
• be able to state each important chemical law or theory related to thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer, or kinetics in both verbal and equation form.

You should be able to use correctly and quantitatively the elementary data and laws of chemistry in computations. Specifically, you should:

• be able to select those chemical data and laws which are appropriate and useful in solving a given chemical problem.
• be able to use the appropriate data and equation form of chemical laws to calculate the chemical properties of materials and systems, expressing the results in appropriate SI units.

You should be able to choose and use an appropriate sequential approach to qualitative and quantitative chemical problems. Specifically, you should:

• be able to choose which of the chemical laws, and which of the possible forms of them, is most appropriate to obtain the desired result from available data.
• be able to devise a correct and reasonable sequential order of steps required to obtain the desired result from available data.
• be able to carry out computations in the above sequential order with correct data and units.

Examinator beslutar, baserat på rekommendation från KTH:s handläggare av stöd till studenter med funktionsnedsättning, om eventuell anpassad examination för studenter med dokumenterad, varaktig funktionsnedsättning.

Examinator får medge annan examinationsform vid omexamination av enstaka studenter.

När kurs inte längre ges har student möjlighet att examineras under ytterligare två läsår.

Written examination 5 credits.
SEM (seminar) 4 credits
Research project (report + seminar) 6 credits
