4.00 Credits
This is a one semester course designed to introduce students to fundamentals of chemistry. The first portion of this course will cover basic mathematical principles that form the foundation for calculations in chemistry. The course will also introduce students to chemical nomenclature, terminology, structure of the atom and periodicity, balancing chemical reactions, and calculations based on reaction stoichimetry. The lab portions of the course will integrate with lecture material. Prerequisite(s): ENG 080; ENG 090; MAT 050.

4.00 Credits
This is the first semester of a two semester college chemistry sequence. The topics discussed begin with physical and chemical property definitions and dimensional analysis. Chemical reactions and reaction stoichiometry are studied in the context of aqueous solutions. Types of aqueous reactions are investigated (i.e., acid/base, oxidation/reduction) as well as quantitative aspects of the reactions (i.e., molar solutions, dilutions, titrations, limiting reagents, reaction yields). Topics in gaseous state chemistry and introduction to basic thermodynamics, quantum theory, electronic structure of atoms, basic chemical bonding, molecular geometry and molecular orbitals follow the reaction chemistry section. Prerequisite(s): ENG 080; ENG 090; MAT 050.

4.00 Credits
This course is the second semester of a two semester college chemistry sequence. Topics covered start with a brief discussion of the physical properties of liquids, solids and solutions. The major focus of this course will be chemical equilibria and the applied aspects in solution chemistry. Topic areas include reaction kinetics, equilibrium reactions and calculations as applied to solutions, gas phase reactions, acid/base reactions, buffers, and solubility. Particular attention will be directed to natural systems (fresh water and marine). Also, entropy, free energy and equilibrium will be discussed before covering electrochemistry. Prerequisite(s): CHM 111.

4.00 Credits
Analytical Techniques is a one semester course that introduces students to basic principles and techniques involved with environmental sampling, sample preservations, sample preparation and sample analysis. The course is a hands on laboratory based course. Topic areas that students will develop skills include water quality analysis (nutrients), dissolved oxygen, pH, alkalinity, conductivity, redox potential, BOD/COD, quantitative techniques using standard addition methods, site mapping, sediment soil water sampling, and basic chromatographic applications. The underlying theme throughout the course focuses on quality assurance/quality control, QA/QC. Prerequisite(s): CHM 112.
-
3.00 Credits
Orientation to careers in law enforcement their philosophic base and historic development; agencies and processes; technical and legal problems, and the role of criminal justice in a democratic society.
-
