This introductory chemistry course covers the basic chemical principles and prepares students for the General Chemistry course (CHM 151). Emphasis is on the concepts of chemical structure, bonding and stoichiometric relationships. This course does not have a laboratory component. Students who wish may take the Introductory Chemistry Lab, CHM 111, course at the same time or later. This course when combined with the Introductory Chemistry Lab, CHM 111, is equivalent to the Introductory Chemistry, CHM 109, course. Students cannot receive credit for both CHM 109 and CHM 110/CHM 111 courses.
Prerequisite:
MAT 090
-
1.00 Credits
This laboratory course for the non-chemistry majors covers basic chemical laboratory techniques and safety in the chemical laboratory. The performed experiments provide an understanding and practical application of the fundamental principles related to chemical structure, bonding and stoichiometric relationships. This course can be taken at the same time as the Introductory Chemistry course, CHM 110, to fulfill the requirement of the chemistry course with the lab.
Prerequisite:
MAT 090
Corequisite:
CHM 110 (can be taken previously)
-
4.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the elements of general, organic and biological chemistry which are essential to the allied health professions. Principles of carbon chemistry are presented and related to biologically relevant molecules.
Prerequisite:
CHM 109 or CHM 110 and CHM 111
-
4.00 Credits
This course introduces students to general chemistry concepts and covers the properties of matter, periodicity, atomic and molecular structure, chemical bonding, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, gases and thermochemistry. Laboratory experiments deal with the qualitative and quantitative determination of the physical and chemical properties of chemical substances. This is the first semester of the two-semester comprehensive General Chemistry course. Students are advised to take General Chemistry 2, CHM 152 , to complete the sequence.
Prerequisite:
CHM 109 or CHM 110 and CHM 111, MAT 108 or MAT 111 or higher.
-
4.00 Credits
In this course students investigate intermolecular forces, properties of solids and liquids, solution theory, acid-base theory, chemical kinetics, chemical equilibrium, chemical thermodynamics and electrochemistry. This course has a laboratory component. The experiments support the lecture principles through data collection and analysis.
Prerequisite:
CHM 151 with a C grade or better.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides students with an introduction to nanotechnology, with a specific emphasis on how chemical and physical properties are altered at very small scales. In addition, students will complete a series of lab activities in which they synthesize nanomaterials and examine properties in an electron microscope. This course is designed for any student with an interest in nanoscience, though some exposure to physics and chemistry will be helpful.

4.00 Credits
This course is the first semester of a two-semester course in organic chemistry. The course covers the chemistry of the organic compounds of carbon. It focuses on the electronic structure and reactivity of organic molecules. Topics include, but are not limited to bonding theories, application of acid-base theories, organic nomenclature, conformational analysis, energy diagrams and the reactions (including the mechanisms) of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alkyl halides, aromatics, alcohols and ethers. The laboratory component applies basic organic laboratory techniques, including melting point determination, recrystallization, distillation, liquid/liquid extraction, thin-layer chromatography and column chromatography to organic syntheses and natural product isolations.
Prerequisite:
CHM 152 or permission of instructor
-
4.00 Credits
This course is the second semester of a two-semester course in organic chemistry. The emphasis is put on organic spectroscopy, multi-step organic synthesis and reaction mechanisms. Spectroscopy topics discussed include Mass Spectrometry, Infrared (IR) Spectroscopy and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectrometry. The course explores the nomenclature, physical properties, synthesis and reactions of several carbonyl functional groups and carboxylic acid derivatives. The nucleophilic addition, ?-substitution and condensation reactions of carbonyl compounds as well as the nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions of acid chlorides, anhydrides, esters and amides are discussed. In the final part, the course surveys biologically relevant compounds such as amines, carbohydrates, amino acids, peptides and proteins. The laboratory component of the course focuses on the synthesis, isolation and characterization of small organic compounds utilizing the reactions learned in the lecture.
Prerequisite:
CHM 201 or permission of instructor
-
3.00 Credits
Complete 3 credits from subject ENG, college-level greater than 100.
-
3.00 Credits
This is a general computer literacy course. Students learn computer fundamentals (hardware, software, using a Microsoft Windows operating system), essential applications (word processing, spreadsheets and presentation software), working online (networks, Internet and email) and the impact of computing and the Internet on society. Students develop skills with common applications to use a computer as a tool, make informed decisions concerning computer generated information and obtain basic information systems concepts and terminology.
