CHEM1111 - General Chemistry I

学分
5 (4/1/0)
描述
Meets MnTC 目标区域 2 and 3. This course is the first of a two-course series (CHEM1111 and CHEM1112) intended for science majors. Students will learn the general chemistry principles: problem solving, 命名法, 原子结构, 电子结构, 化学计量学, 滴定法, 反应类型, 分子结构, 热化学, 电子结构, and properties and laws of gases. The course includes a lab. Students completing the two-semester sequence will be competent in all areas listed in General Chemistry I & II of the 明尼苏达州 Chemistry Transfer Pathway.
