Chemical education: Evolution of physical chemistry task collections

Abstract

At the Department of Physical and Colloidal Chemistry of the B.N. Yeltsin Ural Federal University, work is constantly being carried out to improve educational tasks that the student understands solutions. Due to the increase in the volume of independent work of students, the role of modern teaching aids in solving problems has increased. As electronic courses in physical chemistry are created, work on solving problems is transferred to the electronic environment. This characterizes a new stage in the development of methodological approaches to the creation of collections of problems in physical chemistry. Currently, new types of tasks in physical chemistry have been developed: problems on enzymatic catalysis with variants of tasks of varying degrees of complexity; problems in determining parameters of a kinetic equation for a group solution with determining the role of each in such brigade work. According to the traditions laid down by the founders of the department, the tasks are based on real experimental material. So, in this embodiment, the results of a kinetic experiment in trilonate solutions of chemical copper plating are used.
