Lecture Description
Review. Professor Sylvia Ceyer reviews the main topics covered throughout the second half of the course including kinetics, transition metals, VSEPR theory, acid-base equilibrium, chemical equilibrium, and oxidation/reduction. Professor Ceyer uses the case study of methionine synthase to supplement the discussion.
Course Description
This is an introductory chemistry course, emphasizing basic principles of atomic and molecular electronic structure, thermodynamics, acid-base and redox equilibria, chemical kinetics, and catalysis. This course also introduces the chemistry of biological, inorganic, and organic molecules.
