CHM 11500, The Big Picture

This course is based on the theme of the fundamental relationship between matter and energy. The faculty believe that prior preparation and active participation in lecture is a very effective way for students to learn. It is your responsibility to understand the structure and expectations of the course.

This Semester: Energy, Matter, Resources

Relationship between matter and energy is a fundamental idea in chemistry. We will look at this on three levels:
Human use of energy from energy resources How energy use effects the environment Atomic/molecular scale: how matter contains and interacts with energy

solid lines = main topical flow

dashed lines = major thematic connections

Energy and Fuels Wind and Hydro Oil Solar Coal Hydrogen

Nuclear atomic structure periodicity bonding: energy ionic covalent shapes

carbon (polymers) fnl grps

polarity
biological molecules drugs receptors/binding (IMAFs) solubility

salts

Xtal structure

metals, semiconductors (solar cells)

photosynthesis / transformations of functional groups

kinetics
combustion/metabolism thermo pollution acids/bases

E85 in the News

Journal and Courier, May 17, 2006 From a letter to the editor: There is a 25% loss in energy when using a mix of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline as compared to 100% gasoline. We will answer why.
