Survey of the representative and transition elements in the context of atomic and molecular structure. Organometallic and solid-state principles are introduced as the foundation of coordination theory and the biochemistry of inorganic cations. Laboratory work emphasizes the preparation, properties, and characterization of selected inorganic and bioinorganic compounds. Low and high temperature and vacuum techniques are applied to both aqueous and non-aqueous systems.

Three class hours and three laboratory hours weekly.

Prerequisite: CH 202, CH 203. CH 301, CH 302 highly recommended.
