II. Chemistry
A. Overview
B. Composition
B. Bonding
[D. Chemical Characterization: Spectroscopy]
Concepts explain different types of materials compositions pure; mixtures (miscible, immiscible); compounds (stoichiometric, non-stoichiometric) give examples of typical compositions of metals (pure metals; metallic compounds; alloys) give examples of typical compositions of ceramics (metals + non-metals; silicates; others) give examples of typical compositions of semiconductors (pure; compound; doped) give examples of typical compositions of polymers (hydrocarbons; mers) understand the shorthand notation for polymer molecule composition (using [mer] n )
Calculations determine any unit of chemical composition in any material (wt %, mol %, at %, ppX) convert compositions among any of the various units
Concepts define the influence of factors that establish bonding in materials electron configuration; valence electrons; electronegativity state and explain the three types of primary bonding in materials (covalent; ionic; metallic) explain the three types of mixed primary bonding in materials metallic + ionic; metallic + covalent; ionic + covalent give examples where the different primary bonds and mixed primary bonds appear in mate- rials explain the two types of secondary bonding in materials (hydrogen; Van der Waals) give examples where the different secondary bonds appear in materials explain the difference between bond strength and bond energy in materials rank the energies of primary and secondary bond in materials state and explain the directionality of each type of bond in materials explain the influences of bond strength on materials properties explain the influences of bond energies on materials properties explain the influences of bond directionality on materials properties
Calculations determine the fractional amount of ionic + metallic bonding utilize formulations for the force of a bond (Hook’s law; ionic)
Concepts know the name, probe, signal, and information obtained from four techniques used to char- acterize materials chemistry (AES, XPS, FTIR, EDS)
