-
4.00 Credits
Introduction to chemical research, the chemical literature, creative thinking, experimental design, treatment of errors and oral and written communication of scientific results. Provides an opportunity to work in a selected research area under the supervision of one or more staff members on campus (or in off-campus research facilities). Requires a minimum of ten laboratory hours weekly. Prior to beginning the research project, three copies of project outline must be submitted to the department chairperson for approval. Prerequisites: at least four courses in chemistry and/or permission of the department chair.
-
3.00 Credits
Study of the limitations of the degree of completion of chemical reactions and physical processes by natural law. Examines the gaseous state, liquid state, solid state, thermodynamics, homogeneous chemical equilibria and phase equilibria from both experimental and conceptual viewpoints. Three class hours and three laboratory hours weekly. Prerequisites: The equivalent of Arcadia courses CH 203, PH 202 or 212, MA 202. (old #301)
-
3.00 Credits
Continuation of CH 301. Considers the limitations on the rate of change by natural law. Explores the concepts of solutions, heterogeneous equilibria, electrochemistry, chemistry kinetics, quantum mechanics and surface phenomena. Three class hours and three laboratory hours weekly. Prerequisite: The equivalent of Arcadia course CH 301. (old #302)
-
3.00 Credits
Survey of the representative and transition elements in the context of atomic and molecular structure. Introduces organometallic and solid-state principles as the foundation for understanding coordination theory and the biochemistry of inorganic cations. Laboratory work emphasizes the preparation, properties and characterization of selected inorganic and bioinorganic compounds which employ low and high temperature, vacuum and physiochemical techniques with both aqueous and non-aqueous systems. Three class hours and three laboratory hours weekly. Prerequisites: CH 202, 203. CH 301, 302 highly recommended. Offered in odd years. (old #305)
-
3.00 Credits
Advanced study of selected topics not covered in the introductory course, including: Huckle Molecular Orbital Theory; correlation of structure and activity by linear free energy relationships, acidity functions and Bronsted Catalysis Law; symmetry and stereochemistry; pericyclic, eletrocyclic and sigmatropic reactions; kinetics and kinetic isotope effects; and application of spectroscopic techniques. Laboratory component involves individual multi-step syntheses and molecular modeling projects. Three class hours and four laboratory hours weekly. Prerequisites: CH 202, 203. CH 301, 302 highly recommended. Offered in odd years. (old #306)
-
3.00 Credits
The principles of thermodynamics will be investigated from a modern statistical point of view based upon ensemble theory. This includes Maxwell-Boltzmann, Fermi-Dirac, and Bose-Einstein statistics, transport phenomena, thermal interactions, kinetic theory and applications to a variety of molecular systems. Prerequisites: CH 102, PH 212, MA 202, CH 301 and 302; or permission of the chairperson if taken concurrently with CH 302. Offered in odd years. (old #333)
-
3.00 Credits
The foundations of quantum chemistry and its applications to chemical system will be explored. The Schrodinger wave equation, the harmonic oscillator, the hydrogen atom and matrix mechanics will be examined. Special emphasis will be placed on group theory and application to spectroscopy. Prerequisites: CH102, PH202 or 212, MA201, CH301 and 302; or permission of the chairperson if taken concurrently with CH302. MA 452 (old #352) recommended. Offered in even years. (old #351)

3.00 Credits
This course provides the qualitative and quantitative principles of toxicodynamics, toxicokinetics applicable to the study of potentially harmful effects of chemicals on living organisms, particularly humans. Through lectures and student-lecturer subject intractions, the course also covers: applications of the above principles; toxicity study and safety evaluation of medicinals and non-medicinals; and clinical, environmental, occupational, veterinary, forensic, and community toxicology.
