2000-2001
Chem 1412, General Inorganic Chemistry II
4 Semester Credit Hours

Course Description :
This course will enable students to become proficient in acid-base theory, oxidation-reduction reactions, nuclear chemistry, aqueous equilibria, electrochemistry, and organic chemistry. A knowledge of algebra is needed.

Text and Materials:
1. Text: Chemistry: Principles and Reactions, 4th Ed., by Masterton and Hurley (required).
2. Lab Manual: Basic Laboratory Studies by Grace R. Hered (required).
3. A scientific calculator is needed for this course.

Course Goals/Objectives:
After successful completion of this course, a student will be able to answer descriptive questions and to work
word problems like those assigned in the text.

Class Policies:
If you decide to not complete this class, then it is your responsibility to go the Office of Student Services to initiate the dropping of this class. If this class is not dropped, then a letter grade will be assigned. If for some reason you must miss a test, please contact the instructor and be ready to take the makeup on the day you return toclass or sooner. After one week from the original test date, a "zero" will be assigned and grades will be averaged accordingly.
