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.
This is an introductory chemistry course for students with an unusually strong background in chemistry. Knowledge of calculus is recommended. Emphasis is on basic principles of atomic and molecular electronic structure, thermodynamics, acid-base and redox equilibria, chemical kinetics, and catalysis. The course also covers applications of basic principles to problems in metal coordination chemistry, organic chemistry, and biological chemistry.
Professor Sylvia Ceyer discusses the kinetics of catalysis and the various types of catalysts: homogeneous, hetergenerous, and the catalysts of life, enzymes. The lecture then shifts to focus on enyme catalysis and its various components: substrates, active sites, and enzyme inhibition.
