CHEM 331 - Physical Chemistry II

4 credits
Advanced study of quantum mechanics applied to chemical systems. Topics include an introduction to the principles of quantum mechanics followed by application of quantum mechanics to atomic structure and spectra; molecular orbital theory and electronic structure calculations; electronic, vibrational and rotational spectroscopy; elementary nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy; and statistical mechanics. Laboratory experiments emphasize the use of the above mentioned spectroscopies in the determination of molecular structure. Prerequisite: CHEM 160   or CHEM 161   or instructor approval. Offered alternate spring semesters. CLA-Breadth/Natural Science, CLA-Quantitative
