This course treats topics in physical and inorganic chemistry, building on the themes of structure, bonding, and reactivity established in organic chemistry. As the final course in our introductory curriculum, Chemistry 256 completes the foundation required for the study of chemistry at the advanced level. Topics include chemical thermodynamics, kinetics, nuclear chemistry, electrochemistry, structure and bonding, and coordination chemistry. Laboratory work includes the synthesis, characterization, and reactivity studies of coordination complexes, kinetic, electrochemical, spectroscopic analysis, and nuclear chemistry.
