CHEM 330 - Advanced Inorganic Chemistry

(4)

FA, even years. A fundamental study of the chemistry of all elements with emphases on periodicity, symmetry, bonding, and reactivity. Types of compounds discussed include ionic solids, cage compounds, organometallic compounds, coordination compounds, and bioinorganic compounds. Electronic and magnetic characteristics are studied in depth. A significant component of the course involves studying advances in inorganic chemistry from peer-reviewed literature. Laboratory Prerequisite: CHEM 230 and either CHEM 261L or 253L.
