CH 222 - General Chemistry 2

4 Credit(s)

Lecture for the second course of the traditional general chemistry sequence designed for science, engineering and health science majors. Introduces bonding, condensed phases, solutions, kinetics and concepts of equilibrium. Lecture and laboratory with hybrid lab lecture; lab emphasizes green chemistry and real world applications. It is recommended to take the accompanying lab, CH 228 (2 credits), at the same time as the lecture.

Prerequisite: CH 221  
Learning Outcomes
Students who successfully complete this course will be able to:

1. interpret, communicate, and analyze data and error to demonstrate understanding of basic chemical concepts and reactions

2. apply unit analysis problem solving techniques or mathematical formulas, individually and in groups, with provided or data students collect in lab, to solve unit conversion, stoichiometry, solution, kinetic and equilibrium questions

3. use the vocabulary of chemistry to explain, discuss and solve problems about molecules and ions, atomic structure and periodicity, bonding, behavior and property of liquids, solids and solutions, kinetics and equilibrium

4. use and describe real life situations as examples to demonstrate and explain key chemical concepts

5. assess the strengths and weaknesses of different theories of bonding including valence bond theory and molecular orbital theory and apply each theory appropriately
