Prerequisite

CH222

Overview

• This course is considered one of the most important inorganic chemistry courses.• This course aims for the student to be familiar with how to identify coordination compounds.• This course aims at knowing the crystal field theory, valence bond and partial orbitals.• This course aims at interpreting spectra and deriving boundary symbols, which are considered an introduction to the interpretation of superimposed spectra.

Intended learning outcomes

a. Knowledge & understandingA.1 He can, through studying this course, how to interpret spectra.A.2 Benefiting from the three theories, which are the theory: valence bond / crystalline / continuum field, in order to be an entrance to postgraduate studies.A.3 Recognize the naming of coordination compounds.A.4 Learn how boundary symbols are derived.B. Mental skillsB.1 The student learns how to build an idea and then how to turn it into reality.B.2 The student learns how to use electronic references.B.3 Acquiring skills in solving questions and theoretical applications.B.4 acquires the concepts that must be learned from the course.T. Practical & professional skillsC.1 The student learns to interpret spectra to identify superpositions.C.2 The student learns how to name inorganic compounds.C.3 The student learns how to derive the boundary symbols, which are an introduction to the spectra.C.4 The student learns to understand the three theories and how to use them.w. Generic and transferable skillsD.1 Acquiring some skills in understanding and being able to name coordination compounds.D.2 The student learns how to use computers and the internet.D.3 Using the electronic library and how to search for references.D.4 Data handling and analysis methods.

Teaching and learning methods
