CHE 211 - General Chemistry II

Credits: 5

Prerequisite: CHE 210 and MAT 095 (or placement based on AB705 mandate)
Description: This is the second half of a one-year course sequence in chemistry intended for majors in the natural sciences (chemistry, biochemistry, biology, physics, pre-medicine), Math, and engineering. The topics include a review of Solutions, Chemical Kinetics, Equilibrium, Acids and Bases, Thermodynamics (Entropy and Free Energy), Electrochemistry, Coordination Chemistry, Descriptive Chemistry and various other areas of chemistry. Appropriate laboratory experiments are included. The laboratory sequence will support the above topics including both qualitative and quantitative experiments, analysis of data and error propagation.
