Course Description:
On successful completion of the module, students should be able to:
- Explain the principles of atomic structure, electron configuration, energy quantisation, wave particle duality, molecular orbital
theory and coordinate bonding
- Determine the shapes of covalent molecules using Valence-Shell Electron-Pair repulsion theory
- Predict the Lewis acidity or basicity of a molecule
- Describe chemical equilibria on both molecular and mathematical levels
- Describe the underlying principles of spectroscopy and apply quantitative relationships (e.g. Beer-Lambert law, Rydberg
equation) to analyse spectra; predict and rationalize spectra of atoms & molecules
- Draw and name organic molecules explaining their structure, shapeand possible isomers
- Use curly arrow notation to rationalise and predict stability, polar reactivity and acidity for organic molecules
