1.00 Credits
1 credit This laboratory is an inquiry-based approach to understanding the process of doing chemistry. Each week, as a team member with a specific role working for a consulting company, the student will receive a letter from a "chemical client" requesting the solution to a chemical problem. It is theresponsibility of the team to design a solution, collect data, and report the results to the client in report form. Prerequisite: concurrent with C142.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credits Organized by chemical functional groups and reaction mechanisms, this course will present both classical and modern theories of organic chemistry. The fundamentals of nomenclature, physical properties, chemical structure, stereochemistry, organic reactions, mechanisms, synthesis, purifi68 cations, and compound identification will be emphasized. Biological, medical, and familiar real-world examples will be discussed in the context of organic chemistry. Prerequisite: C131/133.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credits A continuation of C 321. The use of NMR, IR and mass spectra for structure determination will be included. Three lectures and three hours of laboratory per week. Prerequisite: C321.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credits This course involves chemical thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, and their applications. The following thermodynamic topics are considered: properties of gases, kinetic molecular theory, the laws of thermodynamics, thermochemistry, and chemical equilibrium. The following kinetic topics are considered: chemical reaction rates, determination of rate laws, reaction mechanisms, and theories of reaction rates. Three lectures and three hours of lab per week are required. Prerequisites: C142/144, M152, and P211/212.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credits This course involves an introduction to quantum mechanics and statistical thermodynamics. The following quantum topics are considered: quantum theory and applications to simple systems of particles, approximation methods for complex systems of particles and spectroscopic verification of quantum results. The following statistical mechanics topics are considered: the Boltzmann distribution, statistics of large populations, the partition function and thermodynamic functions from statistical mechanics results. Three lectures and three hours of lab per week are required. Prerequisite: C142/144, M152, and P211/P212.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credits This course introduces the student to the theory, statistical treatment and laboratory practice of obtaining information about the composition of matter. Topics include: measurement uncertainty, aqueous solution equilibrium, gravimetry, titrimetry, chromatography and basic spectrophotometry. The laboratory projects involve analytical chemical problems whose solutions are researched and solved by student teams. Prerequisites: C142/144 and C322.
-
3.00 Credits
1-3 creditsThe topics for these courses vary according to the needs and interests of chemistry majors. Topics may include: chemistry education, industrial chemistry, natural product chemistry, and advanced laboratory methods.
-
4.00 Credits
4 credits The principle concepts of biochemistry are the focus of this course. The major themes include the relationship between the three-dimensional structure of proteins and their biological function and the chemistry and metabolism of biologically important macromolecules including proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acids. Prerequisites: B110/111, B120/121, C321, and C322 (or concurrently with consent of instructor).
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits Building upon the content and skills learned in C321 and C322, this course will review old topics in greater detail and explore new areas of organic chemistry. Topics will include nomenclature, stereochemistry, reaction mechanisms and reaction energetics and dynamics. The primary objective of this course is to develop the skills and knowledge to understand current research papers published in scientific journals. Prerequisite: C322.
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits This course is an introduction to the concepts of quantum mechanics, statistical thermodynamics, theoretical kinetics and spectroscopy. Three lectures per week. Prerequisite: C332.
