After successful completion of the course, students are able to

• understand the structure of an atom and the main types of chemical bonding
• describe trends in the periodic table
• comprehend general concepts of chemistry
• name compounds according to rules of nomenclature
• balance simple chemical equations
• differentiate between different acid / base concepts
• explain physical states and their properties
• define electrochemical processes (voltage generation, electrolysis, fuel cells)
• understand and apply corrosion protection from an electrochemical point of view
• derive basic properties of organic compounds based on their structures
• explain the functionality / production of lubricants and soaps
• transfer chemical concepts to engineering and daily-life related problems
