CH 302 - Chemistry III

3 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits
Course Description
This elective has been designed to provide students with the third quarter of a one-year general chemistry course. This allows students to more thoroughly understand such subjects as thermochemistry, electrochemistry, solution chemistry and the chemical theories relevant to conductors, semiconductors and transition metals. CH-302, a three-credit course, allows students to meet the general chemistry requirements for graduate school and medical school when taking the CH 303  lab component (a one-credit laboratory course offered in a subsequent quarter), and specifically covers material that is normally found on the MCAT and FE/PE exams. (prereq: CH 201 )
Course Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
• be exposed in more depth to Quantum Mechanics
• be exposed in more depth to various topics involved in Phase Change
• understand the chemistry of transition metals including Crystal Field Theory, Molecular Orbital Theory and the Complex Ion Formuation
• understand Thermodynamics including Electrochemistry
• expand their knowledge of solution chemistry
Prerequisites by Topic
• Two university level chemistry courses
Course Topics
• Quantum Mechanics
• Various Topics of Phase Change
