CHEM 111 Inorganic Chemistry
First of a three-course sequence designed for students intending to earn a degree in science, health, natural resources and engineering. Topics include: basic concepts about matter, measurements in chemistry, atomic and molecular structure, chemical bonding, the MOLE concept, gas laws, solution chemistry including acids and bases. Lab included. Prerequisite: MATH 98 or equivalent or taken concurrently. (NSL)
Outcomes
- Students will be able to describe how periodic properties and trends affect electronic configurations and intermolecular forces.
- Students will be able to state how intermolecular forces relate to all phases of matter.
- Students will be able to do complex calculations based on stoichiometry and the MOLE concept.
- Students will be able to describe chemical bonding and how this produces chemical formula relationship and reactions.
- Students will be introduced to various lab techniques.
