-
3.00 Credits
3 Cr. Three hours lecture per week. Fundamental chemical processes of the atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, geosphere, and anthrosphere. Topics include biogeochemical cycles, smog formation, global warming, stratospheric ozone depletion, air pollution, acid rain, groundwater and soil pollution, deforestation, wastewater treatment, genetically modifi ed crops, and other social environmental concerns. Corequisite: 340.
-
3.00 Credits
3 Cr. Three hours lecture/discussion per week. The major goal of the course is to write and present a research proposal by identifying a problem, completing a literature review of that topic, and designing an experiment. The student will also learn the methods and expectations for appropriate behavior in the conduct of scientifi c research: developing a question, conducting a literature search, developing a bibliography, understanding the fundamentals of safety in a research setting, ethical behavior, plagiarism, and writing and presenting a research proposal. Prerequisite: grade of C or higher in 340. W
-
2.00 Credits
2 Cr. Four hours lab per week per credit hour. This course will give those students considering a teaching or research career in chemistry experience in laboratory instruction by assisting the instructor in 240-340 (sophomores mainly) or 430 (juniors and seniors). The student will assist by supervising both sample preparation and proper use of advanced analytical instrumentation and its associated software. The instrumental techniques include FT-NMR, fl ame ionization gas chromatography (GC-FID), gas chromatography with mass detector (GC-MS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal conductivity detector GC, atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Prerequisites: 430; 300 or experience in laboratory preparation through university work study. Restricted to chemistry majors with senior standing.
-
4.00 Credits
4 Cr. Three hours lecture/four hours lab per week. A systematic description of major instrumental methods. Students learn the conceptual process of instrument development involving chemical theory/ method and physical theory/design; sampling procedures and methodology; how chemical information is extracted from instrument signals; Fourier transform processes. Laboratory applies and reinforces lecture principles via study of instrument parameters and performance of chemical analyses involving spectroscopic, electrochemical, and chromatographic instruments. Prerequisites: grade of C or higher in 330; PHYS 251 or 261; 360 recommended.
-
3.00 Credits
3 Cr. Three hours lecture per week. A study of advanced topics in organic chemistry including the planning and carrying out of multistep syntheses, the investigation of reaction mechanisms, the separation and identifi cation of organic compounds by physical, chemical, and spectroscopic methods, and the examination of a variety of polymer systems. Prerequisites: grade of C or higher in 240, 340, 360.
