COURSE OUTLINE FOR THE CAMPUS
“BASIC PRINCIPLES OF
CHEMICAL REACTIVITY ”
Course code: Campus
MB 1112/3 (U of Wpg Code: CHEM-1112/3)
DESCRIPTION:
This 3 credit course includes an introduction to chemical kinetics, chemical thermodynamics and equilibrium, and to acid/base and oxidation/reduction chemical reactions. The laboratory component will introduce students to some of the basic techniques of practical chemistry. The fundamental concepts of chemical reactivity covered in this course provide the essential foundation for students who wish to continue with Chemistry or Biochemistry as a major, and for students of Biology, Physics, Physical Geography, Environmental Studies, and Experimental Psychology.
PREREQUISITES:
CampusMB 1111/3 (U of Wpg Code: CHEM-111/3 or 08.1111/3) or equivalent from another university.
