Chemistry 331

Chemistry 331	CH 331
Introductory Inorganic Chemistry	3 (3-0-3-0-0)
Atomic and periodic properties of the elements. A survey of Main Group elements and compounds with particular focus on bonding models 'Valence Bond and Molecular Orbital Theory'. The structures and properties of Main Group inorganic compounds will also be covered. Practical laboratory work consists of the synthesis and characterization of inorganic compounds with a significant reliance on spectroscopic techniques. Note: Formerly CH 241. *Credit Restriction:* Credit may be obtained for only one of Chemistry 331 or CH 241 *Prerequisites:* (Chemistry 102 or Chemistry 206) and (Chemistry 163 or Chemistry 263) and 2nd year standing required *Further information:* Course availability and times
