CHEM 4510 - Chemistry of Materials

Institution:

Utah Tech University

Subject:

Chemistry

Description:

Provides the molecular understanding of materials structure and properties, including solid-state chemistry, chemical bonding in bulk materials, and properties of materials as function of local and extended structures. Topics include inorganic solids, organic and coordination polymers, organic conductors, hybrid materials, optical and magnetic materials, and biomaterials. **COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLOs) At the successful conclusion of this course, students will be able to: 1. Understand inter- and intramolecular interactions in bulk systems, and use those to predict and observe local and extended network structures in solids, liquids, and glasses. 2. Use structural information to predict properties of bulk systems, with emerging properties from atomic to nano to bulk systems. 3. Predict and determine optical, electronic and magnetic properties of materials, and learn techniques to characterize those properties as they relate to structure. 4. Conceptualize relationships between natural, anthropogenic, and biological materials. 5. Apply fundamental chemistry concepts to materials science. Prerequisites: CHEM 2320 and CHEM 2325 and CHEM 3000 and CHEM 3005 (All grade C or higher). SP (odd)
