Inorganic Materials Chemistry and Processing

Review of atomic, molecular, and crystal structures. Covering acid-base and redox reactions and chemical properties of the groups in the periodic table. Concluding with an introduction to materials and energy balance in reactions, as well as kinetics and catalysis. Hands-on qualitative and quantitative analyses of inorganic compounds, by both classical "wet" volumetric and instrumental methods. Emphasis will be placed on a chemistry-based motivation of the course content.
