Graduate Learning Outcomes (GLO) carried by the course

CPMK CodeCourse Learning Outcomes Elements (CLO)
CPMK 1Able to understand the structure of inorganic compounds (atomic positions, relative bond lengths, and general geometry) using VSEPR theory, understand symmetry operations and types of point groups of inorganic compounds, recognize the polarity or chirality characteristics of compounds from the type of point group, and predict the number of IR and Raman active vibrations of inorganic compounds.
CPMK 2Able to understand the reactivity of inorganic compounds by studying their oxidation-reduction behavior and the relative strength differences of acid-base compounds in both aqueous and non-aqueous media.
