Chemistry II

This is the second half of a two-term sequence designed to help students describe and understand properties of materials. Topics include kinetics, equilibria, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, chemistry of the nucleus, and an introduction to organic chemistry, with a focus on applications in each case.

The course meets for three hours of lecture/discussion and for three hours of lab each week. Students are strongly urged to take both terms of this course. Evaluations are based on problem sets, lab reports, and quizzes.
