Course Outline
Text Book: General Chemistry, Principles & Structure by
J.E.Brady, 5th
Ed.,
John Sons. 1990.
Course Description & Objectives:
This is the second of two courses of chemistry designed for first-year
science students. With the first course (131), it enables the students to cover
most of the Basic principles and concepts in chemistry. This course includes
thermodynamics, chemical equilibrium, electrochemistry, metals and their
compounds, transition metals and theories that account for the formation of
their compounds, transition metals and theories that account for the their
complexes. The course objectives can be outlined as follows:
1.
Understand laws of
chemical thermodynamics and applications
2.
Study and comprehend
chemical equilibrium of different systems
a.
Gaseous systems
b.
Aqueous systems
c.
Solution in equilibrium
with solids
d.
Solution containing
complexing ions
3.
Understand the concepts in
electrochemistry: electrolysis and galvanic cells. Utilize these concepts in
stoichiometric calculations of potentials, concentrations as well as
thermodynamic equilibrium constants. To study various applications of
electrochemistry reactions quantitatively.
4.
Study and understand
chemical kinetics and be able to use the laws, write mechanism and study the
factors that affect reactions rates.
5.
Study metals and their
compounds, occurrence, behavior and importance.
6.
Study the transition
metals and their compounds and the different theories that account for the
formation of these compounds
