The goal		To introduce students to theory of electrolyte solutions and thermodynamic properties of the salt systems present in nature and production and processing of inorganic salts. Students gain knowledge about traditional and newest models for prediction and calculation of activity coefficients of binary and multicomponent electrolyte solutions. An assignment enables them to process and calculate data on thermodynamic properties of electrolyte solutions using various thermodynamic models for treatment of data and computer programs.
The outcome		This course gives an introduction to basic knowledge of electrolyte solution theory and application of traditional and newest models of thermodynamic properties of multicomponent electrolyte solutions. Students are introduced also to experimental techniques of determining activity coefficients and the ways and methods of processing the experimental and literature data in theory of electrolyte solutions.
