| Course description |
|
This lecture will show the position of chemistry in various issues of modern society and try to explain the issues by using the basic chemistry. In addition, the lecture will adopt a quantitative analysis method in order to realize the problems and develop accurate judgment. Now, the international community is making efforts in various fields beyond industry, government, and academia to achieve the "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)". Among the SDGs, environment-related items are of particular importance, including air, climate change, marine conservation, water and sanitation, and energy. No matter what field you go to after you go on to a specialized course or even after graduating from university, you will face any challenges relating to the SDGs. The way of thinking in chemistry will surely be useful as a tool for problem solving at that time. This lecture will proceed in the flipped classroom format of Active Learning. It is essential to prepare for the assignments and materials to be distributed in advance each time. This lecture also emphasizes the connection from high school chemistry to university basic chemistry and helps you to deepen your understanding of chemistry. For acid-base reactions and reaction rates, this lecture will conduct virtual experiments using Excel to understand the essence of the contents. |
| Expected Learning |
| It is possible to quantitatively explain the mechanisms of air pollution, ozone layer depletion, global warming, water pollution and acid rain, and their countermeasures from a chemical perspective. Diploma Policy Perspective for this course: Please refer to the curriculum map of the course guide. |

1. Lecture Outline: Chemistry for a sustainable future (Class achievement goals, class procedures, grade evaluation methods, sustainability, green chemistry, and review of high school chemistry) 2. Air 1: Classification of substances, and atoms and molecules in the gas phase (classification of substances, gas, composition of air, and equation of state of gas) 3. Air 2: Chemical change (conservation of mass, chemical reaction formula, radical reaction, and ozone) 4. Ozone layer protection 1: Atomic structure and periodicity, Lewis structure (relationship between electron configuration and periodic table, ionization potential, electron affinity, electronegativity, covalent bond, and Lewis structure) 5. Ozone layer protection 2: Electromagnetic waves, quantization, energy levels (quantum numbers and electron orbitals, electron configuration rules, and atomic orbital types and thire shapes) 6. Climate Change 1: Greenhouse gas, molecular shape, polarity (molecular shape, polarity of chemical bond, state change of substance, and state diagram of substance) 7. Climate Change 2: Molecules and mols (liquid and molarity) 8. Combustion: Hess' law, entropy, activation energy (heat of reaction and standard molar enthalpy) 9. Water Chemistry 1: Bonding (intermolecular force, hydrogen bond, dipole moment, and solvation) 10. Water Chemistry 2: Aqueous solution, electrolyte (liquid, molar concentration, mass percent concentration) 11. Acid rain and ocean acidification 1: Acid-base (definition of acid / base, pH, and strength of acid / base) 12. Acid rain and ocean acidification 2: acid dissociation equilibrium, hydrogen ion concentration (chemical equilibrium, neutralization titration, and buffer solution) 13. Acid rain and ocean acidification 3: redox (definition of redox, oxidation number, ionization tendency, chemical cell, and electrolysis) 14. Fission Fire: Nuclear Chemistry (Evolution of elements, radioactivity, and reaction rate) 15. Final exam (written) |
