Course Objectives
By the end of the course the students will comprehend the basics of Chemistry. In Chemistry 112 students will build on concepts from Chemistry 111 as they explore the characteristics of chemical reactions related to chemical kinetics, chemical equilibrium, acid/base chemistry, thermodynamics, and electrochemistry.
Course Content
(For GEOE, METE, MINE, PETE and CHE students) Discussion of physical properties of solutions, chemical kinetics, chemical equilibrium, chemical thermodynamics and electrochemistry.
Course Learning Outcomes
At the end of this course, the students will be able to;
- Differentiate intermolecular forces and relate these forces to the physical properties of liquids, solids, and solutions (boiling point, freeze/melt point, and vapor pressure).
- Articulate the importance of intermolecular interactions and predict trends in physical properties
- Describe the solution process and the properties of solutions.
- Describe modern materials and their properties.
- Calculate concentrations of solutions (molarity, molality, mass percent, and mole fraction).
- Summarize the concepts of chemical kinetics and interpret chemical reactions from kinetic data.
- Determine the rate of a reaction and its dependence on concentration, time, and temperature.
- Relate the properties and characteristics of acid-base solutions to reactions.
- Apply the principles of equilibrium to aqueous systems using LeChatelier’s Principle to predict the effects of concentration, pressure, and temperature changes on equilibrium mixtures.
- Analyze and perform calculations with the thermodynamic functions, enthalpy, entropy, and free energy.
- Describe the electrochemical cells, and determine standard and non?standard cell potentials.
