CHE 331 - Inorganic Chemistry

Institution:

Cedar Crest College

Subject:

Description:

The primary focus of the course is the application of group theoretical methods to chemical systems, particularly transition metal complexes. Modern bonding theories such as Lewis-Langmuir, Valence Bond, VSEPR, and molecular orbital theory are studied, and their predictions are compared to those from group theory. Important experimental results, including the spectrochemical series, are explained in light of the modern bonding theories. The laboratory consists of the synthesis of representative inorganic compounds. 3 credit option does not include laboratory. Prerequisite: CHE 205, CHE 206, MAT 141, and MAT 142 (which may be concurrent).
