-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CHM 221. A survey of the chemistry of the elements, including main group, transition metal, and organometallic compounds in both inorganic and biological systems. An examination of acid-base and redox properties of these compounds is included. This course presents the structure, bonding, and reactivity of inorganic compounds through three one-hour lectures each week. (Every year)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: CHM 112 or 115, MAT 192, PHY 162/162L. An introduction to quantum mechanical and statistical thermodynamic models. The principles and applications of quantum chemistry are introduced, including exactly soluble models, and atomic and molecular spectra. Properties of matter are interpreted by application of statistical mechanics to populations of atoms and molecules. Both segments of the course entail rigorous application of numerical methods to problems in physical chemistry. Course meetings include three one-hour lecture periods per week. (Every year)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: CHM 112 or 115, MAT 192. An introduction to the thermodynamic and kinetic influences on chemical and biochemical reactions. Course topics include laws of thermodynamics, phase equilibria, chemical equilibria, kinetic theory, empirical kinetics, and reaction mechanisms. Examples are drawn primarily from process chemistry and biochemistry. Course meetings include three one-hour lecture periods per week. (Every year)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: CHM 222, 241. A study of the instruments that are used for separation (such as gas chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography) and spectroscopic methods of analysis (including infrared, ultraviolet/visible, nuclear magnetic resonance, atomic absorption, atomic emission, and mass spectrometry). Attention is given to the block diagrams and the basic theory of the various instruments. (Every year)
-
4.00 Credits
(Same as EES 351) Prerequisite: CHM 241. A study of the physiochemical properties of substances that determine their fate and transport in the environment. Inorganic and organic substances will be examined as they are deposited, transported, transformed, and stored in the soil/sediment, water, and atmosphere. Techniques for the sampling and analysis of nutrients, toxic metals, and organic priority pollutants will be examined. A lecture, laboratory, and field course. (Occasional)
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisites: CHM 222 and 241, MAT 192, PHY 162/162L. Corequisites: CHM 331 and 341. This laboratory capstone course features a set of experimental projects designed to integrate concepts and techniques from the major divisions of chemistry, presenting chemistry as a unified science. Formal written laboratory reports are required. The course includes two three-hour laboratory meetings each week. (Every year)
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CHM 371. A continuation of CHM 371, this laboratory capstone course features a set of experimental projects designed to integrate concepts and techniques from the major divisions of chemistry, presenting chemistry as a unified science. Formal written laboratory reports are required. The course includes two three-hour laboratory meetings each week. (Every year)
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: CHM 222. A seminar series consisting of meetings to discuss articles in all areas of chemistry from the current chemical literature. Students will prepare presentations on primary research articles and serve as discussion leaders. The course includes one one-hour seminar per week. This course may be repeated for a maximum of two hours of credit. (Every year)
-
1.00 - 2.00 Credits
Prerequisites: senior status and departmental approval. Independent research directed by a faculty member. Students work toward laboratory research goals prepared in consultation with a faculty mentor. Written and oral presentations are required. The course includes approximately six hours in the laboratory each week. (Every year)
-
1.00 - 2.00 Credits
Prerequisites: CHM 401 and departmental approval. Independent research directed by a faculty member. Students work toward laboratory research goals prepared in consultation with a faculty mentor. Written and oral presentations are required. The course includes approximately three hours in the laboratory each week. (Every year)
