  • Describe relative solubility","vapor pressure","boiling point and surface tension of molecular compounds in terms of intermolecular interactions.
  • Quantitatively describe colligative properties with molecular and ionic solutes.
  • Calculate the heat absorbed or evolved during a series of temperature changes or phase transitions.
  • Interpret phase diagrams.
  • Derive a rate law from experimental kinetic data or from a reaction mechanism.
  • Use Transition State Theory and the concept of activation energy to discuss reaction rates and the impact of a catalyst on reaction rate.
  • Quantitatively describe equilibrium using an equilibrium constant expression.
  • Apply Le Chatelier’s Principle to reactions in equilibrium.
  • Use Bronsted-Lowry Theory and Lewis Acid-Base Theory to describe acid base reactions.
