      The goalThe objectives of this course are to give the student a basic understanding of theoretical inorganic chemistry; to understand how structure and bonding influence the physical properties and ; reactivity of inorganic molecules; to learn several theories of bonding, the advantages and disadvantages of each theory and which theory is most useful for each type of inorganic molecule; to introduce the synergy between the theoretical and practical aspects of inorganic chemistry via the close relationship of the laboratory work to the other components of the course.
      The outcomeThe student will have a broad knowledge of: the principles of atomic and molecular structures; chemistry of main group and transition group elements; the role of important chemical elements and their compounds in chemical technology. The student will be prepared to meet the demands of today's technological society.
