This page contains archived course material from the last time I taught this class (in 2015, with Prof. Alan Heyduk). The lecture slides, video lectures and chapter homework problems are posted here for public use.
Current Chem 107 students can find the current course information on Canvas.
All problems refer to the fifth edition of Inorganic Chemistry by Miessler, Fischer and Tarr.
