CHEM 611 - Intermolecular Interactions & Phases of Matter

This course will examine the impact on a variety of physical properties made by attractive forces between molecules, atoms, and ions. Topics will include explaining the existence and predicting the strengths of intermolecular interactions, predicting physical properties such as viscosity, boiling points, and melting points based on the presence of intermolecular forces, and the impact of intermolecular interactions on phases of matter. Student participation in discussions will lead to enhanced pedagogical skills for the secondary science teacher. Pre-requisite: instructor’s consent.Credits: 3
