Outcomes

Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
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. Perform general chemistry experiments, analyze recorded data, and evaluate the data while working safely in a laboratory environment.
