Volledige vakbeschrijving
This survey course will introduce the students to the world of chemistry beyond carbon. As an introductory course it will focus on the principles of bonding and interaction between atoms, both of the main group and the d-block elements. Topics covered include but are not limited to molecular orbital theory, main group elements, acids and bases, coordination chemistry, and the solid state. An introduction to group theory and organometallic chemistry is also included.Doelstellingen van dit vak
