    Description
    This is the second course of a two-semester sequence covering the basic principles and concepts of chemistry with emphasis on chemical calculations. Inorganic chemistry is stressed, and the material includes a discussion of thermodynamics, reaction kinetics, chemical equilibrium, acid-base equilibria in aqueous solutions, electrochemistry. There is a brief introduction to organic, biological and nuclear chemistry. The laboratory part of the course complements the lectures and also includes one experiment on qualitative analysis of cations and anions. (C-ID CHEM 120S) Lecture Grading: Letter CH 001A.
