Course title

Chemistry for Engineers (CHM 114)

Pre-requisite

MAT 170 Precalculus is strongly suggested

Course description

Have you ever wondered what’s inside your mobile phone case? Why batteries aren't lighter and have to be recharged? How different colors can be shown on your computer screen? Or why glass shatters when you hit it with a hammer? These, along with other questions of how atoms and molecules combine to make macroscopic materials with desired properties, are at the heart of countless challenges addressed by chemists and engineers every day. This course is not a standard introductory chemistry course. The course introduces general chemistry topics and explains directly how these concepts are related to engineering. You will develop the language and chemistry skills necessary to work as an engineer in a team with chemists. In this course, you will learn by doing, and you will be helped along the way with instant visual and audio feedback. You will simultaneously learn the language of chemistry and how to think like a chemist by exploring the chemistry embedded in engineering challenges. https://courses.ea.asu.edu/general-chemistry-for-engineers-chm-114/
