COURSE OUTCOMES (COs)

The background of chemistry allows engineers to get the most out of raw elements in
creating fuels, drugs, new and modern materials, construction materials etc. needed in wide
variety of engineering and technological applications. The in-depth comprehension of
concepts and chemical reactions involved in chemistry would be applicable in solving the
problems of engineering in spectrum of engineering branches like, electrical, Power
Electronics Engineering, Biomedical Engineering etc.
The deep understanding of various topics/ subtopics of engineering chemistry course would
enable the diploma engineers to understand and solve the various engineering problems,
developments and breakthrough in engineering and technology in a very systematic and
scientific way.
The purpose of this course is to help the student to attain the following industry identified
competencies through various teaching-learning experiences:
● Use principles of engineering chemistry to solve broadly-defined engineering
problems.
The practical exercises, the underpinning knowledge, and the relevant soft skills associated
with this competency are to be developed in the student to display the following COs:
● Apply the principles of chemical bonding and solutions to solve various engineering
problems.
● Solve engineering problems using the concepts of electrochemistry and corrosion.
● Use relevant fuels and lubricants for domestic and industrial applications.
● Select appropriate engineering materials for industrial applications.
● Choose various types of electrochemical devices for domestic and industrial
applications.

SUGGESTED STUDENT ACTIVITIES
Other than the classroom and laboratory learning, the following are the suggested studentrelated co-curricular activities which can be undertaken to accelerate the attainment of the
various outcomes in this course: Students should conduct the following activities in group
and prepare small reports of about 5 pages for each activity. They should also collect/record
physical evidence such as photographs/videos of the activities for their (student’s) portfolio
which will be useful for their placement interviews:
a) Prepare a PowerPoint presentation or animation showing different types of chemical
bonds and atomic structures.
b) Prepare a model of an atom with the help of a ball and stick or of any other items.
c) pH Calculations for acid, base, and salt solutions at different concentrations.
d) Preparation of a table showing the different methods used for prevention of
corrosion.
e) Solve simple problems on hardness calculation.
f) Market survey of different lubricating oil and compare their physical and chemical
properties.
g) Library survey regarding polymers, synthetic rubber, and adhesives used in different
industries.
h) Collect different polymers and prepare the chart/ PowerPoint based on their type,
properties, and uses.
i) Market survey of different batteries and differentiate primary and secondary
batteries.
11.
SUGGESTED SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES (if any)
These are sample strategies, which the teacher can use to accelerate the attainment of the
various outcomes in this course:
a) Massive open online courses (MOOCs) may be used to teach various
topics/subtopics.
b) Guide student(s) in undertaking micro-projects/activities.
c) Different types of teaching methods i.e. video demonstration, activity-based learning,
case study, m-learning need to be employed by teachers to develop the outcomes.

d) Some of the topics/sub-topics which are relatively simpler or descriptive are to be
given to the students for self-learning but to be assessed using different assessment
methods.
e) Teachers need to ensure to create opportunities and provisions for co-curricular
activities.
f) Guide students to address issues on environment and sustainability with reference to
using the knowledge of this course.
g) OERs, Vlab, and Olabs may be used to teach for the teaching of different concepts.
12.
SUGGESTED MICRO-PROJECTS
Only one micro-project is planned to be undertaken by a student that needs to be assigned
to him/her at the beginning of the semester. In the first four semesters, the micro-project
are group-based (group of 3 to 5). However, in the fifth and sixth semesters, the number of
students in the group should not exceed three.
The micro-project could be industry application-based, internet-based, workshopbased, laboratory-based, or field-based. Each micro-project should encompass two or more
COs which are the integration of PrOs, UOs, and ADOs. Each student will have to maintain a
dated work diary consisting of individual contributions in the project work and give a
seminar presentation of it before submission. The duration of the micro-project should be
about 14-16 (fourteen to sixteen) student engagement hours during the course e. The
students ought to submit micro-project by the end of the semester (so that they develop
industry-oriented COs).
A suggestive list of micro-projects is given here. This should relate highly to the
competency of the course and the COs. Similar micro-projects could be added by the
concerned course teacher:
a) Prepare a PowerPoint animation that can explain the structure of an atom.
b) Prepare a chart of the modern periodic table which gives information about the
atomic number and mass number of different elements.
c) Prepare common salt crystals from NaCl solution
d) Prepare a chart representing compounds and solutions which affect human life
positively and negatively.
e) Prepare a model of an atom with the help of a ball and stick or of any other items.
f) Form three groups of students in the class. Consider a hypothetical situation of
exchanging/ sharing/giving of different items/belongings and demonstrate the type
of ionic, covalent, and co-ordinate bonding amongst the students in a simulated
situation. Present your findings.
g) Model of electronic configurations for different atoms (Z=30)
h) Prepare a model to demonstrate the application of electrolysis cells.
i) Collect three metallic strips of Al, Cu, Fe, strips, Place them in different acidic and alkaline

acidicand alkaline environment. Discuss the findings with your teacher and colleagues.

Classify the surrounding corrosion into dry corrosion and wet corrosion.
