Textbook: Chemistry: The Molecular Nature of Matter and Change by Silberberg, 7th (2015, ISBN
9781259550683), 8th (2018, ISBN 9781259741098) or 9th edition (2021, ISBN 9781260240214).

This course is designed for second-semester general chemistry students whose academic plans require advanced study in chemistry.Fundamentals of chemistry, including properties of solutions, chemical kinetics, chemical equilibrium, acid-base equilibria, chemical thermodynamics and electrochemistry, will be covered.

The laboratory component to accompany General Chemistry II in examining the fundamentals of chemistry including properties of solutions, chemical kinetics, chemical equilibrium, acid-base equilibria, chemical thermodynamics and electrochemistry.

Chapter 1. Intermolecular forces: liquids, solids, and phase changes.
Chapter 2. The properties of mixtures: solutions and colloids.
Chapter 3. Kinetics: rates and mechanisms of chemical reactions.
Chapter 4. Equilibrium: the extent of chemical reactions.
Chapter 5. Acid-base equilibria.
Chapter 6. Ionic equilibria in aqueous systems.
Chapter 7. Thermodynamics: entropy, free energy, and the direction of chemical reactions.
Chapter 8. Electrochemistry: chemical change and electrical work.
