  • 5.00 Credits

    NS - From consumer products to space age technologies, chemistry affects our daily lives. In this course, students will learn the structure of matter and how it behaves under various conditions in order to better understand the chemical world. Designed for students with little or no chemistry background, this course can stand alone or be followed by CHEM& 161 (formerly CHEM 142) or CHEM& 131 (formerly CHEM 220). Laboratory activities extend lecture concepts and introduce the student to the experimental process. Prerequisite(s): Co-enrollment or completion of MATH 095 with a grade of 2.0 or higher. (LAB)
  • 5.00 Credits

    NS - An entire field of chemistry is dedicated to the unique bonding characteristics and properties of compounds of carbon. Students will learn the structure, properties and reactions of various organic compounds, including hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and amines. Students will use this information as foundation for examining complex compounds found in living systems: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Laboratory activities extend lecture concepts and introduce the student to analysis and separation techniques. Prerequisite(s): Completion of CHEM& 121 (formerly CHEM 120) with a grade of 2.0 or higher, and co-enrollment with or completion of MATH 095 with a grade of 2.0 or higher. (LAB)
  • 5.00 Credits

    NS - This course is designed for students who need to enroll in the General Chemistry sequence who have little or no prior experience in chemistry. Students will learn the symbolism and language of chemistry, quantitative relationships that are practiced in general chemistry, and techniques of quantitative and collaborative problem solving. Satisfies the chemistry prerequisite for CHEM& 161 (formerly CHEM 142). Although laboratory concepts are introduced, this course does not satisfy a laboratory science requirement. Note: This course is intended for students planning to enroll in the CHEM& 161 (formerly CHEM 142), CHEM& 162 (formerly CHEM 152), CHEM& 163 (formerly CHEM 162) sequence. Prerequisite(s): Completion of MATH 095 with a grade of 2.0 or higher.
  • 5.00 Credits

    NS - This is the first course in a three-quarter sequence designed for science and engineering majors. Students will explore the structure and behavior of matter, describe chemical and physical properties and processes, examine mass and energy relationships and study historical approaches in chemistry to understand the scientific method. Laboratory activities extend lecture concepts, emphasize safety considerations, and apply critical thinking about experimental uncertainty. (LAB) Prerequisite(s): Completion of CHEM& 121 (formerly CHEM 120) or CHEM& 139 (formerly CHEM 139) with a grade of 2.0 or higher or high school chemistry within the previous three years; and completion of MATH& 141 (formerly MATH 110) or MATH 147 (formerly MATH 115) with a grade of 2.0 or higher.
  • 5.00 Credits

    NS - This is the second course in a three-quarter sequence designed for science and engineering majors. Students apply concepts of atomic structure to understand and explain chemical bonding, shapes of molecules and intermolecular forces' effect on chemical properties. Students will compare and contrast behavior of gases and liquids, especially solutions, and refine their understanding of the periodic table. Laboratory activities extend lecture concepts and emphasize correct methods, measurement accuracy and safety. Prerequisite(s): Completion of CHEM& 161 (formerly CHEM 142) with a grade of 2.0 or higher. (LAB)
  • 6.00 Credits

    NS - This is the third course in a three-quarter sequence designed for science and engineering majors. Students learn and use the concepts of equilibrium, kinetics and thermodynamics to explain the extent, rate and direction of chemical reactions. Students will also explore a reaction's ability to do work in an electrochemical cell. Fundamental concepts in organic chemistry are introduced. Laboratory activities extend lecture concepts and emphasize experimental design, analysis and communication of results, and safety. Prerequisite(s): Completion of CHEM& 162 (formerly CHEM 152) with a grade of 2.0 or higher. (LAB)
  • 4.00 Credits

    NS - This course is an introduction to the chemistry of carbon-containing compounds for students taking three quarters of organic chemistry. Students will learn the identification, structure and properties of the main types of organic compounds. Students will also develop an understanding of the chemical reactivity of hydrocarbons and alkyl halides using mechanistic approaches. Prerequisite(s): Completion of CHEM& 163 (formerly CHEM 162) with a grade of 2.0 or higher.
  • 4.00 Credits

    NS - This is the second course for students planning to take three quarters of organic chemistry. Students develop a greater understanding of organic structure and transformation, especially of aromatic and carbonyl compounds. Concurrent enrollment in the lab component is required. Prerequisite(s): Co-enrollment in CHEM 254 (formerly CHEM 241) and completion of CHEM& 241 (formerly CHEM 237) with a grade of 2.0 or higher.
  • 4.00 Credits

    NS - This is the third course for students planning to take three quarters of organic chemistry. Students use a mechanistic approach to understanding and predicting transformations of carboxylic acids, amines, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids. Concurrent enrollment in the lab component is required. Prerequisite(s): Co-enrollment in CHEM 255 (formerly CHEM 242) and completion of CHEM& 242 (formerly CHEM 238) and CHEM 254 (formerly CHEM 241) with grades of 2.0 or higher.
  • 3.00 Credits

    NS - This course introduces the student to the theory and practice of standard organic laboratory techniques, including preparation, purification and analysis of representative compounds. Laboratory activities illustrate lecture concepts and must be taken concurrently with CHEM& 242 (formerly CHEM 238). Prerequisite(s): Co-enrollment in CHEM& 242 (formerly CHEM 238) and completion of CHEM& 241 (formerly CHEM 237) with a grade of 2.0 or higher. (LAB)
