CH 201 General Chemistry For Engineering Applications I

The first course of a two-course series of selected chemistry topics for pre-engineering students. Provides engineering majors with a fundamental understanding of chemical reactions and scientific measurements. Introduces students to principles, laws, and equations that govern our understanding of chemical combinations. NOTE: A passing grade in both CH 201 and CH 204 is required to meet the Scientific Inquiry and Analysis Core Education requirement.

Outcomes

Solve engineering-related scientific problems with quantitative methods using dimensional analysis and/or algebra regarding unit conversions, and stoichiometry including solution stoichiometry. Apply chemical principles associated with chemical and physical changes and properties of matter, atomic theory, Periodic Table development, nomenclature, chemical reactions, and stoichiometry. Apply chemical principles related to quantum theory, quantum mechanics, atomic orbital theory, periodic trends, and covalent bond theory.
