CHEM-102 General Inorganic Chemistry II
This
course involves the study of: chemical thermodynamics, chemical equilibrium,
ionic and heterogeneous equilibria in aqueous solutions, electrochemistry, and
chemical kinetics. The course is designed mainly for science majors and
pre-professional students. Lab experiments require students to collect, analyze
and interpret data to identify properties and/or unknown substances.
Hours Weekly
3 hours lecture, 3 hours lab weekly
Course Objectives
- 1. Design and perform chemistry experiment(s) to investigate an assigned laboratory scenario,
know and observe all safety rules, and write a formal lab report. - 2. Analyze and interpret data collected in the laboratory.
- 3. Communicate fundamental concepts in chemistry using appropriate vocabulary, units,
symbols, and notations. - 4. Apply chemical principles, scientific reasoning, and appropriate mathematical techniques to
solve quantitative chemical problems pertaining to, but not limited to, chemical kinetics,
chemical equilibrium, acids and bases, aqueous ionic equilibrium, electrochemistry,
thermodynamics, and free energy. - 5. Apply chemical principles and scientific reasoning to answer qualitative questions pertaining
to, but not limited to, chemical kinetics, chemical equilibrium, acids and bases, aqueous ionic
equilibrium, electrochemistry, thermodynamics, and free energy. - 6. Explain real-world applications of chemistry in terms of fundamental chemical principles.
- 7. Evaluate and explain the reasonableness of a solution to a problem.
