Institution:

Windward Community College

Subject:

Description:

Catalog Description Second course of a two-course sequence designed to meet the one-year General Chemistry requirement for pre-med, science and engineering majors. Topics include thermochemistry, kinetics, acid-base equilibrium, solubility equilibrium and electrochemistry. Emphasis on problem solving. Concurrent registration in CHEM 162L is required. (Offered spring semester only.) Prerequisite: A grade of "C" or better in CHEM 161, credit for or registration in MATH 135, or instructor's consentCo-requisite: Registration in CHEM 162L. Student Learning Outcomes Predict properties of pure substances using phase diagrams. Predict properties (boiling point, melting point, osmotic pressure, vapor pressure) of solutions based on concentration. Determine reaction rate law and calculate rate constants and half-life based on experimental data. Calculate the equilibrium concentration of chemicals in solution involved in precipitation, and acid-base and reactions. Predict spontaneous reactions based on enthalpy and entropy considerations. Determine the electrochemical potential of redox reactions.
