The subject of Inorganic Chemistry of the Solid State corresponds to the matter of Inorganic Compounds, included in the module of Basic Concepts of Chemistry. It is given in the second semester of the third year of the Bachelor in Chemistry. In this subject, the student is introduced to the basic chemical concepts of the solid state. Along with the acquisition of knowledge in relation with the chemical bonding and the strucutre of solids, it is intended to facilitate the acquisition of knowledge in the main techniques of solid preparation and also in techniques of structural determination, both at a theoretical and at an experimental level (in the practical teaching of the subject). Criteria to deduce some of the solid properties considering the chemical bonding, structure and composition are also given.

Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
Progress Tests | 35.00% | 0.00% | If in these tests a grade greater than or equal to 5 (out of 10) is reached, it will not be necessary to carry out this part in the final test. |
Laboratory sessions | 20.00% | 20.00% | Experimental work in the laboratory will be evaluated: attitude, scripts, skill and a practical exam after the face-to-face sessions. A grade of 5 must be reached to pass the course. |
Assessment of problem solving and/or case studies | 10.00% | 0.00% | It will be evaluated (1) In the selection of materials for the preparation of a written seminar: originality and adaptation to the topic, leadership capacity, ability to work in groups, adaptation of the seminar to the time of exposition. (2)) In the elaboration of a written work in which the answers to the proposed seminar are included: adequate answer to the questions of the seminar, editorial adequacy that makes this work understandable for the study of the seminar, leadership capacity, ability to team work. (3) In the class presentation of the seminar: adaptation of the computer media, clarity of the presentation, interaction with the audience, making the seminar participatory. |
Final test | 35.00% | 80.00% | There will be a written exam of the second half of the subject. Students who have not passed the progress test must attend a written exam of the entire course. For these students the assessment of the final test will be 70%. It is necessary to achieve a grade of 5 in each of the two halves of the subject to pass the subject and to average with the rest of the activities. |
