Abstract: Let $A$ be a unital commutative associative algebra over a field of characteristic zero, $k$ be a Lie algebra, and $z$ a vector space, considered as a trivial module of the Lie algebra $g:=Aotimesk$. In this paper we give a description of the cohomology space $H^2(g,z)$ in terms of well accessible data associated to $A$ and $k$. We also discuss the topological situation, where $A$ and $k$ are locally convex algebras.
