Learning outcomes
Knowledge
The student who successfully completes the course will be aware of the main experimental laboratory procedures in the field of inorganic and metalorganic chemistry. He/she will be able to search the literature and to carry out a described experimental procedure, from the setting up of suitable equipments to the recovery, purification and characterization of the products. He/she will be able to write a laboratory report concerning their experimental activity.
Assessment criteria of knowledge
