4.00 Credits
An introduction to the basic principles of the chemistry of carbon compounds. The chemistry of a number of functional groups is examined, with emphasis on structure-reactivity correlations, reaction mechanisms, and spectroscopic methods of structure determination. Prerequisite: CHEM 145, 146. 4 class hours. 4 semester hours
-
4.00 Credits
A continuation of CHEM 255, with more emphasis on structure, properties, and synthesis of a large number of classes of organic compounds. Prerequisite: CHEM 255. 4 class hours. 4 semester hours
-
1.00 Credits
This laboratory course provides experience in basic techniques for the preparation, isolation, purification, interconversion, and determination of physical properties of the common classes of organic compounds. Prerequisites: CHEM 147, 148. Corequisite: CHEM 255. 3 hours laboratory. 1 semester hour
-
1.00 Credits
This laboratory course is devoted to qualitative organic analysis using traditional and instrumental methods. Prerequisites: CHEM 257. Corequisite: CHEM 256. 3 hours laboratory. 1 semester hour
-
3.00 Credits
The sophomore research experience provides an opportunity for students to participate in an independent, investigative research project as part of the requirements for the BS in chemistry. Students carry out novel laboratory or field research in the chemical sciences. A written report is required for completion of the course. Three hours of lab work are required per semester hour. Prerequisite: Permission of instructor. 1-4 semester hours
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers the chemical process industries. After a brief introduction to economics and logistics, the processes leading to the top 50 industrial chemicals are discussed and interrelated. The final products and intermediates are also discussed in light of a changing world feedstock supply. Other industries, including dye, drugs, and explosives are also covered. Catalysis, since it leads to a better selectivity and lower energy cost, is becoming more and more important and is included in some detail. Prerequisite: CHEM 255, 256. 3 semester hours
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores the chemistry of the environment, the chemistry underlying environmental problems and solutions to environmental problems. Emphasis is placed on thermodynamics and kinetics of reaction cycles; sources, sinks and transport of chemical species; and quantitation of chemical species. Examples are selected from the chemistry of natural and contaminated air, water, and soil. Prerequisite: CHEM 255, 257; MATH 142. 3 semester hours
-
3.00 Credits
Students concentrate on equilibria with specific reference to ionic solutions including acid-base, complex ion, redox, and solubility equilibrium phenomena, with applications to the development of procedures for the analysis of inorganic systems. Prerequisite: CHEM 256, CHEM 258; MATH 132; PHYS 232. Corequisite: CHEM 367. 3 class hours. 3 semester hours
-
3.00 Credits
Astudy of instrumentation and its applicability to structural determination and chemical analysis is made. Included are elementary electronics and circuitry, electrochemical, spectrophotometric, and chromatographic methods. Prerequisite: CHEM 365, CHEM 385, PHYS 232 or equivalent, MATH 142, or permission of instructor. Corequisite: CHEM 368. 3 class hours. 3 semester hours
-
1.00 Credits
The core of this laboratory course will focus on analyzing a diverse array of samples and matrices (biological, chemical, environmental, agriculture, and others) using classical analytical quantitative methods of analysis. Sampling, experimental design, data reduction methods, and computer applications are also included. Corequisite: CHEM 365. 3 laboratory hours. 1 semester hour
