Descrición xeral The contents of the subject "Elucidation of Reaction Mechanisms" are oriented to complement previous knowledge from the graduation studies. Usually, reaction mechanisms are proposed for chemical processes without any indication of the experimental evidences that lead to such mechanism instead of any other. This subject will show which are such evidences and how they can be obtained.
It is not frequent to face the planification of a research into how chemical reactions take places. This subject will face this kind of problem from a practical point of view. There are a number of techniques, direct and indirect evidences that allow the elucidation of the mechanism of a chemical process.
Chemical reactivity is central to changes in nature, and the recognition of the different reaction mechanisms is fundamental to control chemicall process, from the kinetic, thermodyanic points of view or even from the point of view of the generated products.

Metodoloxías
Metodoloxías Descrición
Sesión maxistral • Two-hour sessions to present the masterlines of the subject, indicationg the students the most relevant points to take into account when studying and recommeding appropriate materials for a better comprehension.
• The students will have the audiovisual material available through the Moodle virtual plattform.
Estudo de casos • Different real cases will be critically analyzed and discussed, in order to apply the acquired knowledge
Prácticas de laboratorio • Will take place in the laboratory, in the days and hours that will be announces.
• At the end of the practical lessons, the student will hand a report on the experimental project developed, and realize a short oral presentation analyzing the experimental part and the meaning of the obtained results.
Proba obxectiva • There will be a short exam, that may include both theory and practice

Prácticas de laboratorio
Descrición
Will be carried out at the lecturers' offices, or at the Laboratory of Physical Chemistry I, according to the established timetable (consult for each lecturer).
Proposed exercises, laboratory reports, etc. may be hand directly in these hours, solving any doubt or question about them.
Doubt or questions with a simple and brief answer may be asked and answered through the Moodle virtual plattform. More complicated topics will need an appointment.
