Course Objective

the purpose of this course is to explain atomic structure, chemical bonding and intermolecular forces; to determine geometrical structure and symmetry properties, to discuss the conductivities of metal-semimetals and to investigate the concepts of acid-base.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To be able to explain the physical and chemical behaviours of elements by using electronic structure of atoms.
2   To be able to determine types of hybridization and geometrical shapes of the molecules by using Lewis point structure and valance shell electron pair repulsion theory (VSEPR).
3   To be able to explain symmetry and geometrical structure of molecules.
4   To be able to comment ionic and covalent bonds; to be able to apply molecular orbital theory (MO) to homonuclear and hetereonuclear moleculs.
5   To be able to examine common crystal types of ionic solids; to be able to determine theorethical and experimental lattice energy.
6   To be able to define metal bonds and to be able to interpret electrical conductivitiy according to the molecular orbital theory (MO).
7   To be able to examine the intermolecular interactions and to be able to discuss thier effects.
8   To be able to explain the acidity and basicity in different definitions, to be able to interpret hard and soft acids and bases, to be able to determine acid-base reactions in nonaqueous solvents.
