This course is a continuation of Chemistry I. It is designed for college-level, introductory or preparatory chemistry course. The course emphasizes certain chemical concepts such as quantum mechanics, chemical bonding, gases, solutions, equilibrium, acids and bases, chemical equilibrium, oxidation and reduction, nuclear chemistry, and organic chemistry. This course is designed for biology, premedical, prenursing, preclinical and prehealth students.
Learning Objectives
- Learn how to think logically and analytically—to use critical thinking skills.
- Gain an understanding of the basic laws of nature and how scientists discover those laws.
- Know how to interpret and analyze tabulated and graphical data.
- Understand how to apply concepts to various chemical systems
Format
This course is offered in an online asynchronous format. There are no set meeting times, however, students follow a weekly schedule and there will be deadlines to meet in terms of course requirements. This course cannot be completed at an accelerated rate.

Tatum, Prima
Dr. Prima R. Tatum is a native of Beaumont, Texas. She started her academic career at Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas where she majored in Chemical Engineering before transferring to Texas Southern University (TSU) in Houston, Texas; where she earned a B.S. in Chemistry. Dr. Tatum decided to continue her education in chemistry and she earned a M.S. in Analytical Chemistry, also from Texas Southern University. Her research involved the use of Rhodium as a matrix modifier for the determination of lead concentrations in both biological and aqueous systems using Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption techniques. While Prima was matriculating through the master’s program at TSU, she discovered her interest in organic chemistry. After graduating from Texas...Read More
