CHEM 106 – General Chemistry II

CHEM 106 - General Chemistry II

Session 2: July 6 – August 11

Course Description

This course is the second semester of General Chemistry and will serve as a continuation of the introduction to fundamental chemical principles begun in CHEM 105.

Topics to be covered this semester include Chemical Bonding, Structure and Geometry of Molecules, Solids, Solutions, Chemical Kinetics, Chemical Equilibrium, Acid-Base Chemistry, Chemical Thermodynamics, and Electrochemistry. Many of these topics are challenging, and the mathematical component of CHEM 106 is significantly greater than that of CHEM 105.

Course Materials
