Chemistry 101 /101L, 102 /102L - General Chemistry

Institution:

Colgate University

Subject:

Description:

Staff A two-term sequence that introduces chemical principles that apply to all areas of chemistry. The first term (CHEM 101) deals with molecular and reaction stoichiometry, gases, the first law of thermodynamics, the electronic structure of atoms, the periodic table, chemical bonding and molecular geometry, intermolecular forces, and the properties of solutions. The second term (CHEM 102) covers transition metal complexes, chemical kinetics, nuclear chemistry, equilibria, acids and bases (with emphasis on equilibrium studies), the second law of thermodynamics, electrochemistry, and some descriptive chemistry of the more common elements. The required 0.25 credit-bearing laboratory courses CHEM 101L/102L must be taken concurrently with CHEM 101/102 and may not be taken as stand-alone courses. Successful completion of CHEM 101/101L is a prerequisite for CHEM 102/102L. CHEM 101/101L is offered in the fall only; CHEM 102/102L, in the spring only. Credit for CHEM101/101L does not depend on completion of CHEM 102/102L.
