Reference excerpt

Panta S. Tutundžić (Belgrade, Kingdom of Serbia, 15 September 1900 - Belgrade, Yugoslavia. 21 August 1964) was a distinguished Serbian chemist professor and academic of SANU.

Biography Panta Tutundžić attended elementary and realgymnasium in Belgrade. After two semesters of general grounding in science at the Department of Mechanical Engineering of the Technical University of Belgrade, he enrolled, in October 1920, at the Technische Hochschule in Berlin (now Technische Universität Berlin) with the main campus being located in the borough of Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf. He graduated at this school at the beginning of 1925 and in the same year, after having defended his doctoral dissertation, he obtained the status of Doctor of Chemistry. He was a professor of physical chemistry and electrochemistry, at the Faculty of Technology, University of Belgrade, a corresponding member of SANU since 1958, and a full member since 1961. In the period from 1955 to 1962, he was the president of the Serbian Chemical Society. He published scientific papers in the field of theoretical and technical electrochemistry in the Gazette of the Chemical Society, Zeitschrift für Elektrohemie, Berichte der deutschen cheminschen Gesellschaft, Analytica Chimicakemica Acta, Glas, SAN and other scientific publications and journals. He was the editor of the Gazette of the Serbian Chemical Society and a member of the editorial board of the Chemical Review, and in 1962 he was proclaimed the honorary life president of the Society. In 1963, he was elected an honorary member of the Société de Chimie Industrielle in Paris. The most significant results, achieved within electroanalytic, belong to coulometric titrations. Professor Tutundžić gave original pioneering contributions to the development of iodometry, metalometry, permanganometry, bichromatometry, indirect coulometric titration of multicomponent systems. In his lifetime he published 97 scientific papers in journals in the country and abroad, 10 textbooks, seven studies, numerous discussions and articles, about 900 supplements for encyclopedias, held about 70 popular lectures and about 100 presentations at scientific conferences. Based on the results achieved in the field of coulometry, Panta Tutundžić presented to the International Union for Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) in 1956 in Lisbon a proposal to introduce the pendant, a unit of electricity, as a universal standard in analytical chemistry. At the world exhibition in Brussels in 1958, in the International Pavilion of Science, the exhibit of Pante Tutundzic "Coulomb as a universal substance in analytical chemistry" was exhibited.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Panta Tutundžić

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Panta Tutundžić claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In chemistry, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Panta Tutundžić before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Panta Tutundžić ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Panta Tutundžić

In research: Panta Tutundžić appears in chemistry research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Panta Tutundžić in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Panta Tutundžić is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1900 births, 1964 deaths, 20th-century chemists, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Panta Tutundžić outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
