Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
Solve scientific problems with quantitative methods and apply chemical principles associated with matter, unit conversions, and uncertainty. Outline the milestones in developing modern atomic theories. Interpret atomic structure, construct electron configurations, investigate periodic properties, and extrapolate periodic trends. Demonstrate how bonds exist within compounds using different chemical bonding theories. Solve scientific problems with dimensional analysis and apply chemical principles to chemical equations and stoichiometry. Perform general chemistry experiments, analyze recorded data, and evaluate the data while working safely in a laboratory environment.
