Chemistry for Engineering (CHEM 1150)
This course introduces fundamental principles of chemistry and their application in relevant areas of engineering. Core topics include quantum mechanics, chemical bonding, and intermolecular forces, along with essential concepts in thermodynamics, chemical equilibrium, electrochemistry, and kinetics. The laboratory component reinforces these concepts through quantitative experimentation and data analysis where students develop skills in observation, accurate data recording, interpretation, and scientific reasoning.
