The principles of Chemistry are developed and illustrated through selected application. This is the second course in a two semester sequence of of an introductory chemistry course for non-science majors. The course will build on the principles presented in Chem 104, a prerequisite for this course and will focus on the areas of organic and biochemistry. As with Chem 104, this course will concentrate on the basic principles of chemistry and illustrate them through selected applications. I Topics include nomenclature, stoichiometry, kinetic-molecular theory, gas laws, electronic structure, periodicity, and chemical bonding.
Stoichiometry is emphasized.
One two hour laboratory per week. Laboratory A laboratory to accompany Chem 107. Laboratory experiments are designed to develop basic laboratory skills and illustrate concepts. General Chemistry II Laboratory A laboratory to accompany Chem 108. A laboratory to accompany Chem 103 providing basic chemistry and health-related experiences.
