Four class hours and one sixty-minute structured study group session per week. The corresponding lab is CHEM 18b however the Lab course will not be offered in Summer 2020.

Course Description: Chemistry 11B picks up where Chemistry 11A left off, advancing students’ understanding of bonding models and molecular structure. Three major quantitative topics are covered in the second half of General Chemistry—chemical equilibrium (including acid-base chemistry, solubility), chemical kinetics, and thermodynamics. Electrochemistry and oxidation-reduction reactions are also covered in 11B. When taken in conjunction with Chemistry 11A and the associated lab courses (Chemistry 18A and 18B), this course meets the general, analytic, and inorganic requirements of medical, dental, and veterinary schools.Prerequisite: A satisfactory grade (C- or better) in Chemistry 11A or an approved equivalent.
