Syllabus Information

1. General information

The objective of the subject is that students acquire a basic vision of the structure of matter in relation to its properties and to the chemical transformations it can undergo.

These approaches and objectives are aligned with the following Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations Agenda 2030 (https://www.un.org/sustainabledevelopment/es/), in such a way that the acquisition of the learning results of the subject provides training and competence to contribute to some extent to their achievement.

5. Assessment system

COMPANY PROFILE

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT system:

Two eliminatory midterm exams of the subject, compensable between them, with a grade equal to or higher than 3. The grade is obtained as an average of both if both have been passed or have been compensated with the previous requirement.

GLOBAL FINAL ASSESSMENT system:

This test must be taken by those students who have not chosen the split assessment system or those who, having chosen this system, have not passed it. The latter should only be examined in this final testof the partial tests they have pending, which they must pass in order to pass the subject.

In any case, the tests will be 50% theory and 50% problems. In addition, in order to pass the subject by any of the systems, the laboratory practices must be completed.

DEFENSE PROFILE

Continuous assessment

Test 1 (P1). Problem solving of topics 1, 2 and 3 (30% of the final grade). Minimum grade to pass the subject 4.0 out of 10.

Test 2 (P2). Theoretical-practical test of the entire syllabus (70% of the final grade). Minimum grade to pass the subject 4.0 out of 10.

The course is passed with a final grade equal to or higher than 5.0 out of 10.

1st Call

Students who have not passed the continuous assessment or who want to improve their performance may apply

your grade, with the best of your grades prevailing. The overall test will consist of Test 1 (P1) and Test 2 (P2).

Test 1. Problem solving of topics 1, 2 and 3 (30% of the final grade). Minimum grade to pass the subject 4.0 out of 10.

Test 2. Theoretical-practical test of the entire syllabus (70% of the final grade). Minimum grade to pass the subject 4.0 out of 10.

The subject is passed with a final grade equal to or higher than 5.0 out of 10.

2nd call

It will consist of Test 1 (P1) and Test 2 (P2), all students will be required to take both tests.

Test 1. Problem solving of topics 1, 2 and 3 (30% of the final grade). Minimum grade to pass the subject 4.0 out of 10.

Test 2. Theoretical-practical test of the entire syllabus (70% of the final grade). Minimum grade to pass the subject 4.0 out of 10.

The subject is passed with a final grade equal to or higher than 5.0 out of 10.

If the grade of Test 1 (P1) and/or the grade of Test 2 (P2) are lower than 4, the student does not pass the subject and the final grade is calculated as follows:

If P1 < 4 and P2 < 5; Final grade = 0.30-P1 + 0.70-P2

If P1 < 4 and P2 > 5; Final grade = 0.30-P1 + 3.5

If P1 < 5 and P2 < 4; Final grade = 0.30-P1 + 0.70-P2

If P1 > 5 and P2 < 4; Final grade = 1.5 + 0.70-P2
