3.00 Credits
The student will conduct an independent study of a chemical research topic that is based on experimental techniques or advanced computer modeling. Significant use of chemical literature and information retrieval is required. A well-written, comprehensive, and well-documented final report must be submitted to receive a final grade. A weekly seminar is required. Seminar one hour, laboratory activities are a minimum of six hours per week. Prerequisite: One upper division chemistry laboratory class, ENGL 20 or an equivalent second semester composition course and instructor and department chair permission. Graded: Graded Student. Units: 3.0
-
5.00 Credits
Fundamental principles and concepts of chemistry, including stoichiometry; thermochemistry; atomic and molecular structure; solution chemistry, including acid-base chemistry; quantum theory; bonding and intermolecular forces; and chemical kinetics. Fairly mathematical, requiring the ability to perform arithmetic and algebraic computations. Lecture three hours, laboratory three hours, discussion one hour. Note: Enrollment is predicated on students passing a standardized diagnostic exam given prior to each semester or passing CHEM 4 with a grade of C or better. Prerequisite: High school chemistry and college algebra; sufficient performance on the college algebra diagnostic test, or equivalent. Graded: Graded Student. Units: 5.0
-
5.00 Credits
Continuation of the development of fundamental principles of chemistry and application of principles developed in CHEM 1A. The laboratory work emphasizes applications of equilibrium principles, including some qualitative analysis, coordination chemistry and bioinorganic chemistry. Lecture three hours, laboratory six hours. Knowledge of word processing and spreadsheet software is recommended. Prerequisite: CHEM 1A with a passing grade of C or better. Graded: Graded Student. Units: 5.0
