Course Description:
Introduces stoichiometry; chemical reactions and equations; thermochemistry; physical states of matter including properties of gases, liquids, solids and solutions, and chemical kinetics. This is the second course in a three course sequence. Prerequisite: CH 221. Audit available.
Chemistry 222 is the second of a three term, 15-credit hour (5 hours/term), chemistry sequence designed to provide a year of general chemistry to science majors. It will meet transfer school requirements for such science majors as: chemistry, physics, chemical engineering, pre-medicine, and other pre-professional programs. The class consists of lecture, recitation and laboratory. The lecture time is used to provide the student with basic chemical concepts and mathematical applications to chemistry. The recitation time is for practicing problem solving in small group settings allowing for greater student-student as well as student-teacher contact and encouraging individual and team development. The laboratory re-enforces concepts presented in lecture and provides the student a hands-on opportunity to explore these.
Students should reasonably expect to spend a minimum of 15 hours per week on this course. Learning chemistry is like learning a foreign language and requires a lot of time and effort on the student’s part. A firm grasp of CH222 concepts is essential for students continuing on to CH223. You are responsible for any and all material covered in CH221.

Technology
There is no additional technology required for this class.
No show policy
Your instructor can mark you as a "no show" if you do not participate in your class during the first week. This will remove you from the class.
