-
3.00 Credits
3 semester hours The primary emphasis is on the principles of chemical analysis and on laboratory technique. The course will include a review of stoichiometry, an introduction to volumetric analysis, treatment of analytical data, theories of acids and bases, the concept of activity, pH calculations, the theory of indicators, oxidation-reduction equilibria, the Nernst equation, complex ion-and chelate chemistry in solution, potentiometric titration, quantitative spectrophotometry, and analytical separations. Prerequisite: CHEM 122; co-requisite CHEM 202. Not offered every year.
-
1.00 Credits
1 semester hour The laboratory consists of a series of experiments, including conventional determinations as well as more modern analyses. Exact quantitative determinations of several different types of samples are carried out using pH, potentiometric, and chelometric titrations; spectrophotometry; and gas chromatography. Ion exchange is used in the analysis of other samples. Prerequisite: CHEM 122, 123; co-requisite CHEM 201. Not offered every year.
-
3.00 Credits
3 semester hours Lectures cover fundamental instrumental methods plus additional techniques and topics including sampling, luminescence methods, AT-IR, NIR and NDIR, Laser-Raman spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy, ICP-AES, voltammetry, ion-exchange, and size exclusion chromatography. Prerequisite: CHEM 201 and 202, co-requisite CHEM 204.
-
1.00 Credits
1 semester hour The laboratory offers an opportunity to gain a working acquaintance with modern instrumentation for chromatography and spectrophotometry that graduates will use in industrial labs or graduate school. Experiments are designed to study fundamental variables and applications of gas chromatography, HPLC, GC/MS, atomic absorption spectroscopy (flame and graphite furnace), FTIR, UV-vis, fluorescence, ion-selective electrodes, and coulometry. Prerequisites: CHEM 201, 202; co-requisite CHEM 203.
-
3.00 Credits
3, 3 semester hours each This course attempts to correlate structure and reactivity. It begins with an introduction to bonding and properties of molecules. Reaction mechanisms are introduced early and used throughout the course. The aliphatic compounds are considered first followed by aromatic compounds. Considerable emphasis is placed on basic theory. Stereochemistry, conformational analysis, and spectroscopy are integrated into the discussion of the preparation and properties of the major classes of organic compounds. CHEM 205: Prerequisite: CHEM 122, 123; co-requisite CHEM 206 or permission from instructor. CHEM 207: Prerequisite: CHEM 205, 206; co-requisite CHEM 208 or permission from instructor.
-
1.00 Credits
1, 1 semester hour each The laboratory portion of the course allows students to become familiar with basic experimental techniques of organic chemistry such as distillation, crystallization, boiling point and melting point determination, chromatography, and extraction. Experiments are performed that deal with the preparation and purification of representative groups of compounds taught in lecture. CHEM 206: Prerequisites: CHEM 122, 123; co-requisite CHEM 205. CHEM 208: Prerequisites: CHEM 205, 206; co-requisite CHEM 207.
-
6.00 Credits
2-4 semester hours An independent research project is pursued under the direction of a chemistry faculty member. The emphasis will be on developing a novel research project that produces results to be presented to the chemical community. Projects will involve such goals as the chemical synthesis of biologically active and/or interesting molecules. Can be repeated for up to six semester hours credit. Prerequisite: permission from instructor. By special arrangement.
-
3.00 Credits
3 semester hours The study of the physical states of matter and thermodynamics. Pre- or co-requisites: CHEM 203, MATH 201, and PHYS 252. Not offered every year.
-
3.00 Credits
3 semester hours A study of the quantum mechanical treatment of atomic and molecular structure, chemical reaction kinetics and transport properties. Prerequisite: CHEM 301. Not offered every year.
-
3.00 Credits
3 semester hours The course begins with an introduction to amino acid and protein chemistry, then follows with a discussion of enzyme structure, function, and kinetics. Emphasis is placed on the organization of enzyme-catalyzed reactions into coordinated and regulated metabolic sequences. Also examined are (1) the interaction between lipids and proteins to form biological membranes and the roles the biological membranes play in cells (2) carbohydrate, lipid metabolism, and hormonal regulation of these processes and (3) metabolic pathways and other topics which include the glycolytic pathway etc. Prerequisites: CHEM 205, 207; BIOL 101 or permission from instructor. Not offered every year.
