Faculty of Science
Organic Chemistry Module 1 covers the major classes of organic compounds (organometallics, alcohols, amines, carbonyl derivatives) and their reactivity. Carboxylic acids and derivatives are also covered in chapters dedicated to the reactivity of organometallics, alcohols and carbonyl derivatives.
Particular emphasis is placed on understanding reaction mechanisms based on the basic concepts acquired in the first year.
Thermodynamics and kinetics
Component
Faculty of Science
Use the basic principles of equilibrium thermodynamics to predict whether a reaction is possible, in which direction it is spontaneous and determine the proportions of reactants at equilibrium from the equilibrium constant. Application to homogeneous and heterogeneous equilibria, and to the special case of precipitation reactions.(acid-base and redox reactions, time permitting). Hours: 19.5 h.
In the second part, we'll look at kinetics and reaction rates. Only simple reaction orders will be studied this year. Hours: 7.5 h .

The first part of the module will present a general overview of materials: states of matter - chemical bonds - quantities associated with material properties (resistivity, transmittance, viscosity, Young's modulus, etc.). The concepts covered will be illustrated using polymeric and inorganic materials.
Then, in a flipped classroom, students will discover different materials through applications (varnish, paint, energy recovery, pollution control, etc.).

Organic Chemistry Module 2 is a continuation of Organic Chemistry Module 1. It focuses on the reactivity of carboxylic acids and derivatives.
Materials and simple structures part 1
Study level
BAC +2
Component
Faculty of Science
This is a basic module on the physical properties of materials and on techniques for dimensioning mechanically simple components or systems.
Material properties are covered using tensile testing, binary diagrams and microstructure.
Component dimensioning involves selecting the most suitable material and defining the geometry to ensure static and fatigue strength. Dimensional analysis can also be used to determine the characteristics of a more complex system, based on experiments carried out on a scale model.
