Course Description:

The General Chemistry series presents a detailed study of the qualitative and quantitative principles of chemistry for four-year science-related degrees (Science, Engineering, Pre-Med, Pre-Dental, Pre-Pharmacy, Pre-Vet, etc.). This 6-credit course includes a laboratory component requiring up to 3 hours in lab during the assigned lab period (see above). The second quarter of the three-quarter General Chemistry series, CHEM 162, focuses on the following topics: equilibrium and factors that influence the extent of gas-phase, and acid-base reactions, kinetics (the study of reaction rates), thermodynamics (the study of energy, entropy, and the spontaneity of a reaction), and electrochemistry (the study of oxidation-reduction reactions that either result in or can be induced by an electric current). This 6-credit course includes a laboratory component requiring up to 3 hours in lab during the assigned lab period. (See day and time indicated above.)

1. GENERAL SCIENCE, LABORATORY SCIENCE, AND MICROSCALE

• Apply the scientific method and use empirical data and observations to construct a sound 

scientific explanation. 

• Distinguish between macroscopic observables and the underlying microscopic properties 

of matter by interpreting and representing matter using molecular-level drawings.

• Develop good laboratory practices in conducting experiments and reporting experimental 

results (including the proper application of significant figures, precision, and accuracy).

2. CHEMICAL PROBLEM SOLVING

• Develop strong problem-solving skills that are supported by basic algebraic and numeracy 

skills. 

• Demonstrate fluency in chemical vocabulary and symbolic representation.

• Use measurable quantities of matter to determine physical and chemical properties.

• Use stoichiometric calculations to predict quantities.

3. ATOMS, MOLECULES AND IONS

• Describe the general structure of an atom.

• Explain the historical development of the atomic theory and the evolution of the current 

modern atomic model.

• Explain the relationship between the position of an element in the periodic table and its 

physical/chemical properties, including periodic trends.

• Describe the differences in the structure and properties of substances based on different 

types and models of bonding.

4. STATES OF MATTER: GASES, LIQUIDS AND SOLIDS

• Compare and contrast the properties of the three states of matter.

• Use kinetic-molecular theory to explain gas behavior, including real versus ideal gases.

• Describe intermolecular forces and chemical bonds and how they influence physical and 

chemical properties and phase transitions.

5. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL CHANGES AND REACTIONS

• Classify and balance chemical reactions and predict products for different types of 

reactions.

• Apply the properties of ionic and molecular substances in aqueous solution to describe 

systems and predict behavior.

• Describe how a system and surroundings exchange energy at the microscopic and 

macroscopic levels.

• Distinguish between spontaneity, reaction rate, and the extent of a reaction.

• Describe various systems at equilibrium and the effects of temperature, pressure, 

concentration, and energy on dynamic equilibria.
