| Summary |
|---|
| The course introduces students to basic chemical analyses of water and their practical implementation in the laboratory, evaluation of obtained data and their comparison with valid legislation. Students will also learn how to prepare microscopic preparations and are acquainted with microscopic techniques in determining minerals and rocks and basic optical characteristics of selected minerals. |
| Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
|---|
| The student can perform basic laboratory analyses of water and determine selected parameters. The obtained data can be processed and compared with the applicable legislation. It can also prepare a rock sample in the form of a microscopic preparation. The student knows the possibilities of using microscopic technique for the identification of rocks and minerals. He can apply the knowledge, he has achieved in microscopic observation. |
