Faculty of Science
The organic chemistry module 1 concerns the study of the main classes of organic compounds (organometallic compounds, alcohols, amines, carbonyl derivatives) and their reactivity. Carboxylic acids and derivatives are also covered in the chapters dedicated to the reactivity of organometallics, alcohols and carbonyl derivatives.
A particular effort is given to the understanding of reaction mechanisms based on the basic notions acquired in the first year.
Thermodynamics and kinetics
Component
Faculty of Science
Use of the basic principles of equilibrium thermodynamics to be able to predict whether a reaction is possible, in which direction it is spontaneous and determine from the equilibrium constant the proportions of reactants at equilibrium. Application to homogeneous and heterogeneous equilibria and to the particular cases of precipitation reactions.(acid-base and redox reactions if time permits). Hourly volume: 19,5 h.
In a second part, the kinetic aspects and therefore the speed of reaction will be discussed. Only simple reaction orders will be studied during this year. Hourly volume: 7,5 h .

Faculty of Science
The first part of the module will consist in presenting generalities on materials: reminder on the states of matter - chemical bonds - quantities associated with the properties of materials (resistivity, transmittance, viscosity, Young's modulus, ...). The notions discussed will be illustrated through polymeric and inorganic materials.
In a second phase, in a reversed classroom, students will discover the different materials through applications (varnish, paint, energy recovery, pollution control...)

The organic chemistry module 2 is a continuation of the organic chemistry module 1. It concerns the deepening of the reactivity of carboxylic acids and derivatives.
Color measurement

The UE of "Measurement of the Color" is an introduction UE to the colorimetry. It allows to understand the way we perceive the colors and how we classify them in the various colorimetric systems currently used. The course begins with a brief historical introduction tracing the most significant stages of the construction of colorimetry, then follows a chapter giving some notions of "neuro-physiology" of vision describing the functioning of the eye and the retina. Follows a chapter of photometry introducing the essential quantities to the colorimetry, in particular the spectral luminance then a study of the colorimetric systems such as RGB, XYZ or L*a*b*. The emphasis is put in these first chapters on the additive synthesis of colors which allows their production on screens (computer, TV, telephones, etc.). The course continues with an introduction to spectro-colorimetry which allows to understand the properties of color mixtures (subtractive synthesis) through its simplest models (Beer-Lambert, Kubelka-Munk, etc.). The course is illustrated by many exercises done in TD that allow to become familiar with the various colorimetric systems, their advantages and disadvantages. It is also supported by practical exercises which allow the student to master color measurement devices (colorimeters, spectro-colorimeters) as well as the associated software. An important part of the practical exercises is dedicated to the confrontation between observations and measurements of colors.
