Chemistry of elements s and p
Summary
Introduction to the chemistry of the s & p elements of the periodic table.
Content
The course will be a "walk" through the periodic table with focus on the main group elements. This includes a brief history of the respective element, a description of the most important compounds (syntheses, structures, physical properties and reactivities) and a discussion of trends within the different groups.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of the course, the student must be able to:
- Recall general trends in the periodic table of elements.
 - Recall methods for the synthesis of the s & p block elements.
 - Recall the structures, the properties, applications, and the chemical reactivity of the s & p block elements.
 - Differentiate the different allotropes of the s & p block elements.
 - Derive the structure of compounds of the s & p block elements.
 - Derive equations for reactions of compounds of the s & p block elements.
 - Recall relevant oxidation states for the s & p block elements.
