Description: CHM 160 is the second course in the yearlong chemistry sequence CHM 150/160. It serves students majoring in science or engineering with excellent backgrounds in the theory and practice (lab) of high school chemistry, and provides a more in-depth study of the topics discussed. Emphasis is placed on topics such as gas properties, chemical equilibrium, chemical kinetics, acids and bases, solubility, redox chemistry, electrochemistry, coordination chemistry, nuclear chemistry, and a brief introduction to organic and biochemistry. The lab component (CHM 161) of this course is designed to introduce and reinforce lecture topics with an emphasis on quantitative methods. CHM 160 is offered only in Winter semesters and is 4 hours of lecture per week.
