Institution:

Henry Ford College

Subject:

Description:

Microscale glassware and analytical techniques are used to study fundamental organic reactions and the synthesis of organic compounds. Techniques include distillation (simple, fractional, and steam), crystallization, and extraction. Analysis of compounds includes melting points, boiling points, refractive indices, infrared spectroscopy, and chromatography (gas, thin layer, column). Approximately one hour of lecture and three hours of laboratory per week. This meets the Organic Laboratory requirement necessary to enter into Pharmacy, Medical, Dental, and Veterinary schools. Science major transfers will also need to take CHEM 244. Approximately one hour of lecture and three hours of lab per week. Prerequisites: CHEM 141 or the equivalent and CHEM 241 (CHEM 241 can be a co-requisite with instructor's permission).
