CHEM 102 - Introductory Chemistry II

1. Review concepts of acid-base theory.
2. Apply the concepts of the different types of intermolecular forces to determining physical states.
3. Explain the equilibrium between a liquid and its own vapor and the process by which it is reached.
4. Interpret a graph of temperature versus energy for a substance over a range from below the melting point to above the boiling point.
5. Calculate the concentration of a solution in terms of percent, molarity, molality, and normality.
6. Determine colligative properties of a solution.
7. Describe the characteristics and the factors that affect a chemical equilibrium.
8. Explain the basic concepts of nuclear radioactivity.
9. Describe and perform basic quantitative and qualitative chemical analyses.
10. Describe the structure of organic and biochemical molecules.
11. Use common types of chemical glassware, equipment, and chemicals safely and appropriately, including those specifically intended for use with organic and biochemicals.
12. Describe and illustrate chemical principles in laboratory situations.
13. Obtain reproducible data from chemical experiments; analyze, interpret, and communicate the data in a logical and coherent manner.
