3.00 Credits
3 credits Prerequisite: MTH 052 or above with grade of 'C-' or better or pass placement test. Corequisite: BI 112. This course will introduce Health Occupations students to the chemistry of human cells and their components. Organic and biochemistry concepts will be explored to develop and support understanding of cellular structure, function, and genetics, including cell reproduction and specialization within tissues of the human body. Lecture and laboratory will be integrated with group work and computer activities to provide the chemical foundation necessary for understanding the biology of cells. This course combined with Cell Biology for Health Occupations BI 112 satisfies the prerequisite for Human Anatomy and Physiology 1 BI 231.

1.00 Credits
1 credit BioBonds Study Skills (BBSS) for the BioBonds Learning Community is intended to help improve student success in BI112 and CH112. BBSS will provide students with an additional structured classroom environment to improve skills required for success in science courses, including test taking skills, reading scientific text books, and participating in class activities. BBSS will not present new science topics, but will help students study more effectively. BBSS will benefit students with little or no previous experience in science as well as students hoping to improve their class success.

4 credits Introduction to Forensic Chemistry is designed to provide nonscience majors an introduction to chemistry in a forensic context. Topics may include measurement, density, soil analysis, chromatography, organic and inorganic analysis, chemistry of fire and DNA. This course focuses primarily of the chemistry aspect of gathering scientific information in the context of forensics and may also demonstrate the interrelationships of chemistry, physics and biological sciences.

5 credits Prerequisite: MTH 095 or above with grade of 'C-' or better or pass placement test. This three term sequence (CH 221, CH 222, CH 223) is for college transfer science and engineering majors. It must be taken in order. The classes are designed to prepare the student for further work in chemistry, biology, physics, many engineering fields, pre-medicine, and some allied health fields. General Chemistry focuses on inorganic chemistry and provides a basic understanding of the structure of matter, the changes matter undergoes, and the energy associated with those changes. Laboratory activities are designed to acquaint the student with standard laboratory procedures and to illustrate concepts discussed in lecture while emphasizing safety and conservation principles. Topics covered in General Chemistry include: basic concepts of chemistry, systems and units of measurement, chemical nomenclature, stoichiometry, thermochemistry, behavior of gases, atomic structure, chemical bonding and molecular structure, solution chemistry, condensed phases, acid base chemistry, kinetics, equilibrium, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, nuclear chemistry, and organic chemistry. The lab explores chemical safety and risk assessment, methods of measurement, chemical changes, separations, volumetric (titrametric) analysis, synthesis, spectroscopy and calorimetry.The current order of presentation is available at: lanecc.edu/science/chemistr/chemis.htm. General Chemistry 1 is the first term of a three term sequence. NOTE: Introductory Chemistry 1, CH 104 is recommended as a preparatory course for those who have little or no chemistry background.

1 credit Co-requisite: CH221 Chemistry Problem Solving (CHPS) is intended to improve student success in CH221. CHPS will provide students additional, structured practice with topics discussed in CH221 lecture and lab. Study skills and problem solving strategies important to student success will also be discussed. CHPS will benefit students with little or no previous experience in chemistry as well as students wanting additional practice outside of class.

5.00 Credits
5 credits Prerequisite: Grade of 'C-' or better in CH 222 This three-term sequence is intended for science majors and health science students. It is a systematic coverage of aliphatic and aromatic chemistry. A survey of selected biologically important compounds is included during part of CH 243. There are three main areas of study.1) Structure determination by use of spectroscopic data and characteristic reactions of functional groups. 2) Reaction mechanisms, wherein reaction feasibility and rates are related to molecular structure. 3) Synthetic sequences in which complex molecules are built up from simple precursors. Labs are designed to acquaint the student with typical organic preparative procedures. Most of the compounds prepared in lab are analyzed by infrared spectroscopy. The low student/instructor ratio in lab allows considerable personal assistance. CH 241 is the first course in a three term sequence designed for science and health science majors. This course is designed to introduce students to organic functional groups with an emphasis on hydrocarbons and their reactions. Topics will also include bonding theory, nomenclature, and spectroscopy. Considerable time is spent on the fundamentals of reaction mechanisms. The laboratory introduces organic synthesis techniques and products are analyzed using various techniques.
