Chemical equilibrium. Acids and basis, buffers, (carbonate equilibrium, sea water as buffer, ion activity). Carbonate sediments (hydrolysis, carst phenomena, carbonate deposition, tuffa). Kinetics (chemical weathering, catalysis, complexation). Structural chemistry (bond types, isomorphism, polymorphism). Colloids, (organic, silica, Fe-Mn hydroxides, stability). Clay minerals and soil. Thermodynamic equilibria (phase rule, thermodynamic lows and functions). Eh-pH diagrams. Organic matter in sediments (diagenesis, epigenesis, maturation, genesis of oil and gas). Magma (Nernst coef. of distribution, REE, ionic potential, phase diagrams). Stabile isotopes, C,O,S,H, geothermometry. Radiogenic isotopes Rb/Sr, K/Ar, Ar/Ar, U-Th-Pb, Sm-Nd, 14C, geochronology. Historical geochemistry.
