CHEM 330 - Physical Chemistry I

4 credits
A study of the basic principles of quantum mechanics, atomic spectroscopy, molecular spectroscopy, and structure. Topics include quantum mechanics of translation, vibration, and rotation, application of quantum mechanics to atomic spectra and atomic structure, molecular orbital theory of diatomics and conjugated polyatomics, electronic spectroscopy of diatomics and conjugate systems, vibrational spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy, and elementary nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Laboratory experiments emphasize the use of the above mentioned spectroscopies in the determination of molecular structure. Meets: Three hours class, three hours laboratory. Prerequisite: CHEM 350  and MATH 151  and PHYS 160 . Offered fall semester. CLA-Breadth/Natural Science, CLA-Quantitative
