CHEM 175 - General Chemistry I

by Scott Van Bramer

This is the first semester of chemistry for science, biomedical and chemical engineering, and pre-med programs. Topics include measurements, elements, atomic structure, molecular structure, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, acid-base reactions, equilibrium, and introductory kinetics. An understanding of how chemistry applies to living systems and the natural world, green chemistry and sustainable chemistry applications.
