Course description and aims

[Summary of the course] This course gives junior students an opportunity to do exercise problems on physical chemistry, organic chemistry, and inorganic chemistry. Explanation on the problems and answers is also provided.
[Aim of the course] Physical chemistry, organic chemistry, and inorganic chemistry are essential in the field of applied chemistry. This course facilitates students' understanding of related courses in 1Q and 2Q of the junior year through basic exercise problems in these fundamental areas.

Student learning outcomes

At the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Solve standard problems on thermodynamics and chemical equilibrium.
2) Solve standard problems on carbonyl compounds and amines.
3) Solve standard problems on chemical bonding, structures, and inorganic reactions.

Keywords

first law of thermodynamics, enthalpy, second law of thermodynamics, entropy, Gibbs energy, chemical potential, activity, wave-particle duality, Schrödinger equation, wave function, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, nitriles, carboxylic acid derivatives, carbonyl alpha-substitution reactions carbonyl condensation reactions, amines, symmetry operation, symmetry element, character table, irreducible representation, crystal-field theory, ligand-field theory, Russel-Saunders coupling, Tanabe-Sugano diagram, spectroscopic selection rule

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

1) In each class, students are given exercise problems.
2) Towards the end of class, the solutions and explanations are given.
3) Attendance is taken in every class.
4) Students must familiarize themselves with topics described in the required learning section before coming to class.

Assessment criteria and methods

Students' course scores are based on the level of class participation, which is assessed by discussions, assignments, and so on.
The instructor may fail a student if he/she repeatedly comes to class late or does not submit assignments too often.
