Institution:

Randolph-Macon College

Subject:

Description:

This two-semester lecture and laboratory sequence is designed to prepare science majors for an in-depth study of the fundamental principles of chemistry. In the fall semester concepts of structure and composition of matter (the atomic model and the periodicity model) and bonding (models for ionic and covalent compounds) are discussed. In the spring semester concepts in equilibrium and dynamics will be presented: chemical reaction equilibria; thermochemistry, entropy, and free energy; rates, extent, and types of reactions. Applications of these concepts to our daily lives will be highlighted. CHEM 121 is a prerequisite for CHEM 122. CHEM 121 may be used in partial fulfillment of the collegiate laboratory science requirement. Four hours each. Mr. Schreiner, Ms. Marchetti, and Ms. Green.
