Inorganic Chemistry Lab

Catalog description

In this laboratory course, students investigate the inorganic preparation of main group, organometallic, and coordination compounds, as well as meso-scale materials. The synthesized materials are characterized using appropriate analytical methods, with comparisons made to ab initio calculated properties in publication-style multi-draft reports. Course includes one hour lecture and one three-hour laboratory period per week. Prerequisites: CH 342 with a grade of C or better.
