CHM 146 - General Chemistry II Continuation of CHM 145 General Chemistry I including thermodynamics, kinetics, equilibrium, equilibrium in aqueous solution, acids and bases, coordination chemistry and electrochemistry.
Prerequisite- Corequisite Prerequisite: CHM 145 General Chemistry I, CHM 145L General Chemistry I Laboratory and Math B (minimum grade of 65) or MAT 136 College Algebra and Trigonometry
Corequisite: CHM 146L General Chemistry II Laboratory
Credits: 4 Hours 3 Class Hours Course Profile Learning Outcomes of the Course:
Upon successful completion of this course the student will be able to:
- Manipulate the colligative properties to determine molality, molarity, mole fraction, % composition, osmotic pressure as well as molar masses of compounds.
- Understand graphing techniques to ascertain the rate constants of chemical reactions; energy of activation, Ea; equilibrium constants, Kc; and acid-base dissociation constants, (Ka and Kb).
- Understand advanced thermochemistry functions such as Enthalpy, H; Entropy, S; and Gibbs-Free Energy, G to determine feasibility of chemical reactions.
- Understand oxidation reduction systems to illustrate the value of redox reactions such as combustion processes and their thermochemistry relationships with respect to energy generation.
- Understand the value of natural logarithmic (ln functions) and logarithmic (log functions) in the determination of rate constants; understanding half-life for radioactive isotopes; and solution concentrations of specific analytes (i.e., pH measurements to determine hydrogen ion concentrations).
- Understand electrochemistry as it pertains to electromotive force, Eo; oxidation reduction reactions; galvanic and electrochemical cells; battery construction; and fuel cell technology.
