    Information

    Aims, contents and method of the course

    The lecture provides an overview of various methods for the preparation and thermodynamic characterization of inorganic materials. Materials, their nature, properties, and applications, as well as general problems of material preparation and selected methods not covered in other lectures in materials chemistry, are discussed. In addition, the various methods of measuring thermochemical properties are discussed. These include calorimetry, vapor pressure measurements, and electromotive force (EMF) measurements with solid or liquid electrolytes. An introduction to the fundamentals of thermodynamics will be given for a better understanding of the methods.
