General Chemistry II Laboratory

Catalog description

This is a laboratory companion course coordinated with CHM1022 that introduces students to techniques and equipment used in experimental chemistry. Students take an inquiry-based, self-guided learning approach to the discovery of acid-base reactions, calculations of chemical equilibrium, investigations into the structure of solids and liquids, behavior of gases under various conditions, and calculations of solution concentrations. Students also identify, when appropriate, the application of Green Chemistry procedures. Additionally, this laboratory course provides students with the opportunity to practice laboratory safety, design experimental procedures, collect data, analyze results and discuss conclusions.
