  • 4.00 Credits

    Second of a two-semester exploration and study of basic chemical concepts with special emphasis on organic and biological chemistry. Topics are introduced and discussed around the unifying theme that chemical structure, reactivity and biological function are related. Basic chemical concepts include atomic structure of matter, chemical bonding, kinetics and reaction mechanisms and equilibrium. Organic chemistry topics focus on structure, chemical properties and physical properties. Biological chemistry topics focus on properties and metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids. Three lectures and one four-hour laboratory/ discussion per week. (CHEM 110 or CHEM 120 or equivalent with a grade of 'C' or above, or consent of the instructor. Enrollment priority will be given to students currently enrolled in CHEM 110. (F/S)
  • 4.00 Credits

    First of an integrated two-semester sequence of first-year college chemistry which serves as a prerequisite for further courses in chemistry. The course treats basic concepts such as structure and properties of matter, electronic structure of atoms, chemical bonding, chemical reactions, equilibria, kinetics, thermo-chemistry, acid-base chemistry, electrochemistry, and nuclear chemistry. Laboratory exercises that provide hands-on experience with the concepts and experimental techniques of chemistry (with emphasis on laboratory safety) are integrated into the course. Three lectures plus one four-hour laboratory/discussion section per week. (Prerequisites: placement into ENG 110; completion of MATH 111 or equivalent or placement into MATH 112 or higher; high school chemistry or equivalent is recommended)

  • 4.00 Credits

    First of a two-semester sequence in the study of the structure (electronic and geometric), properties, and reactions of compounds of carbon. Topics include the structure and physical properties of organic compounds, stereochemistry, reactions and their mechanisms, and structure-reactivity relationships. Lab experiments emphasize lecture concepts while introducing methods in organic synthesis and illustrating techniques such as crystallization, distillation, chromatography, and spectroscopic methods of compound characterization with emphasis on nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy. (Prerequisite: CHEM 121F5 with a minimum grade of C)

  • 3.00 Credits

    A study of the chemistry of biological systems. Topics include cellular constituents; chemical reactions involved in carbohydrate, protein, lipid, and nucleic acid metabolism; cellular energy metabolism; and enzyme kinetics. Previous or concurrent registration in courses in biological science is strongly recommended. (Prerequisite: Two semesters of general chemistry and two semesters of organic chemistry) (F)
  • 4.00 Credits

    Lecture and discussion of the theory and practice of analytical chemistry for chemistry majors. Classic instrumental analysis techniques will be addressed. Three lectures and one lab per week. Credit cannot be earned in both CHEM 311 and CHEM 351. (Prerequisites: CHEM 121F5 or equivalent, with a minimum grade of C; PHYS 201F5/202F5 Offered in alternate years. (F)
  • 3.00 Credits

    An introduction to quantum mechanics and their applications to atomic, solid state, and nuclear physics and chemistry. Three lectures per week. (Prerequisites: PHYS 202F5 or equivalent; concurrent registration in or prior completion of MATH 331 is highly recommended.) Crosslisted with PHYS 360 (S)
  • 3.00 Credits

    Investigates the laws of thermodynamics, properties of the states of matter, and dynamics. Three lectures per week. Crosslisted with PHYS 361. (Prerequisites: CHEM 121 and PHYS 202, or consent of the instructor)
  • 2.00 Credits

    An advanced laboratory course based on projects agreed upon by the student and the instructor. The projects will incorporate experience from previous chemistry courses. A survey of advanced analytical techniques will be provided. (Prerequisites: CHEM 323 and CHEM 351)
