3.00 Credits
Three Credits LA Dual listed as ENSC 310 This course includes detailed coverage of water, soil, and air environments. It is designed to provide the student with an understanding of the reactions, transports, and effects of naturally occurring chemical systems. The major anthropogenic pollutants and their effects upon the environment will also be studied. Two lectures per week. Offered when sufficient student demand exists. Prerequisite: CHEM 201 or 211
-
4.00 Credits
Four Credits LA An introduction to the theory and application of analytical chemistry. The course will introduce concepts of sampling, sample preparation, classical and instrumental methods of analysis (including calibration, validation, and quality control), statistical analysis of data, and communication skills. The theory of analytical methods will apply and extend general chemistry knowledge while instrumental methods and concepts will be introduced. The laboratory component will focus on good laboratory techniques, achievement of good accuracy and precision, correct procedure for maintaining a notebook, data analysis, and communication of results through report writing. Two lectures plus one three-hour laboratory per week. Prerequisites: CHEM 131-132
-
3.00 Credits
Three Credits LA Treatment of the laws of thermodynamics and the thermodynamic state functions. Application of thermodynamic principles to chemical systems. Methods of analysis and interpretation of chemical kinetic data, and a study of reaction mechanisms and elementary kinetic theories. Two lectures per week. Prerequisites: CHEM 131-132, PHYS 211-212, or permission of instructor Pre- or Corequisite: MATH 210
-
3.00 Credits
Three Credits LA An examination of the transition from classical to wave mechanics and a treatment of the postulates of wave mechanics and their application to simple systems. Wave mechanical studies of atomic and molecular structures, spectra, and photochemical processes. An introduction to the statistical mechanical treatment of equilibrium and of non-equilibrium states. Some special topics like solid-state chemistry, surface properties of materials, etc. Three-hour lecture per week. Prerequisites: CHEM 131-132 and PHYS 211-212, or permission of instructor Pre- or Corequisite: MATH 210
-
1.00 Credits
One Credit LA Application of the theoretical ideas presented in CHEM 361 in the laboratory. This half-semester course focuses on experimental determination of physical properties such as heat capacity and reaction rates. Emphasis on written and oral presentation of ideas. One four-hour laboratory per week. Pre- or Corequisite: CHEM 361
-
1.00 Credits
One Credit LA Application of the theoretical ideas presented in CHEM 362 in the laboratory. This half-semester course focuses on spectroscopic and computational determination of quantum mechanical properties of small molecules. Emphasis on written and oral presentation of ideas. One four-hour laboratory per week. Pre- or Corequisite: CHEM 362
-
4.00 Credits
Four Credits LA This course serves as a formal introduction to the tools of chemical research and is aimed at students in the spring semester of their junior year. The material will cover the correct procedure for maintaining a laboratory notebook, experimental design, statistical treatment of results, methods for performing literature searches, critical review of literature, as well as various scientific writing and communication skills. The course also includes a project component which will serve as the basis for many of the assignments. The project must include a significant analytical chemistry component or the agreement of a faculty member to act as an advisor. Two lectures plus one three-hour laboratory per week. Prerequisite: CHEM 355
-
3.00 Credits
Three Credits LA A study of the structure and function of molecules of biological significance, intermediary metabolism, the role of enzymes, and of the biochemistry storage, replication, and transmission of genetic information. Two lectures per week. Prerequisites: CHEM 211-212 Recommended: BIOL 130-131
-
3.00 Credits
Three Credits LA Continued consideration of metabolism and the biochemistry of genetic information. Discussion of selected topics, including mechanisms of membrane transport, hormone action, and neurotransmission. Two lectures per week. Prerequisite: CHEM 420
-
1.00 Credits
One Credit LA A laboratory course designed to expose students to basic biochemical techniques. Topics include the analysis of amino acids, carbohydrates, and lipids, as well as enzyme assay, protein purification, and electrophoresis. One three-hour laboratory per week. Prerequisites: CHEM 211-212-215-216 Corequisite: CHEM 421
