Descriptive Inorganic Chemistry

Submitted by RTMacaluso / University of Texas Arlington on Tue, 07/24/2018 - 14:26
Description

An overview of descriptive main group chemistry, solid state structures and the energetics of ionic, metallic, and covalent solids, acid-base chemistry and the coordination chemistry of the transition metals. The course is intended to explore and describe the role of inorganic chemistry in other natural sciences with an emphasis on the biological and geological sciences. Important compounds and reactions in industrial chemistry are also covered. Intended for both chemistry and non-chemistry majors.

Bonding and MO Theory in Flavodiiron Nitrosyl Model Complexes - Advanced Level

Submitted by Cassie Lilly / NCSU on Sat, 06/23/2018 - 11:20
Description

The activity is designed to be a literature discussion based on Nicolai Lehnert's Inorganic Chemistry paper, Mechanism of N-N Bond Formation by Transition Metal-Nitrosyl Complexes: Modeling Flavodiiron Nitric Oxide Reductases.  The discussion questions are designed for an advanced level inorganic course. 

 

Introduction to Pulsed Gradient Spin Echo DOSY

Submitted by Jacob Lutter / University of Southern Indiana on Thu, 02/08/2018 - 14:35
Description

Pulsed Gradient Spin Echo (PGSE) DOSY is a NMR technique used for determining the hydrodynamic radius of a molecule in solution by measuring the rate of diffusion. This technique requires a standard, usually tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)silane (TMSS). This activity will cover the basics of how PGSE works and includes built in animations to demonstrate how the nuclear magnetization is affected. Each slide has comments explaining the content for the user's convenience.

Foundations of Inorganic Chemistry

Submitted by Sabrina Sobel / Hofstra University on Mon, 01/22/2018 - 14:58
Description

Fundamental principles of inorganic chemistry, including: states of matter; modern atomic and bonding theory; mass and energy relationships in chemical reactions; equilibria; acids and bases; descriptive inorganic chemistry; solid state structure; and electrochemistry. Periodic properties of the elements and their compounds are discussed (3 hours lecture, 1 hour recitation).

Description

Modern theories of atomic structure and chemical bonding and their applocations to molecular and metallic structures and coordination chemistry.

Isomerism in Coordination Complexes

Submitted by Anthony L. Fernandez / Merrimack College on Thu, 01/18/2018 - 12:07
Description

Students are confronted with a number of new types of isomerism as they move from organic chemistry into inorganic chemistry. This can be confusing and students often have trouble visualizing structures and differentiating between isomers. In this exercise, students are asked to examine a number of different crystal structures from the Teaching Subset (distributed with Mercury version 3.10, early 2018) of the Cambridge Structural Database.
