CHEM 3510U – Inorganic Chemistry I: Transition Metals and Main Group Elements
This is a course in the coordination chemistry of the classical (Werner) transition metal ions and main group chemistry. Description of the solid state including close packing, lattice structures, radius rule, lattice energies, and semiconductor applications. Description of the solution state including Lewis acid-base theory, HSAB theory, ligand exchange kinetics, formation constants, and chelate effect. Ligand field theory including crystal field splittings, magnetism and redox. Selected topics in chemistry of transition metal ions and main group (I-VIII) elements will be discussed.
