1.00 - 3.00 Credits
This course for non-science majors explores fundamentals of chemistry, scientifi c method of inquiry, and past, present, and future impact of chemistry on society. Illustrations of general principles come from areas such as the environment, public health, and technological advances. Fall. Three 50-minute periods, one 3-hour laboratory. (F4) Martin
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Introduction to inorganic, organic, and biochemistry. Topics include atomic structure, bonding, molecular structure, aqueous solutions, behavior of gases, acids, bases, buffers, respiration, energy, and radioisotopes. Emphasis on chemistry of life processes. Fall. Three 50-minute periods, one 50-minute problem session, one 3-hour laboratory. (F4) St. Dunham
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Atomic theory and structure, behavior of matter, principles and laws, and the scientifi c method of working and reasoning. Laboratory consists of related physical-chemical experiments in fi rst term; second-term lectures emphasize structure, chemical equilibrium, acid/base theory, and qualitative analysis, with laboratory work devoted to the same topics. Three 50-minute periods, one 50-minute problem session, one 3-hour laboratory. (F4) Martin, Sh. Dunham

Special Topics
-
3.00 Credits
An overview of the primary chemical processes that affect our environment. Topics include natural cycles of the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere, as well as some major perturbations introduced by industrialized societies. Lab provides hands-on experience with current important analytical methods for studying the chemistry of the natural environment, analysis and interpretation of experimental data, and applications such as treatment of wastewater and abatement of atmospheric pollutants. Prerequisite: Chemistry 114. Three 50-minute periods, one 3-hour laboratory. St. Dunham
-
3.00 Credits
Exploration of elementary concepts of organic chemistry and their application to study of structure, reactivity and synthesis of organic compounds. Emphasis on correlation of the structures of molecules with their functions and explanation of these correlations on fundamental scientifi c principles. Laboratory uses open-ended exploratory approach for learning fundamental laboratory techniques, as well as providing experience with classical synthesis and qualitative organic analysis including hands-on experience with MS, FTIR, and FTNMR spectroscopic techniques and chemical analysis. Prerequisite: Chemistry 114. Three 50-minute periods, one 50- minute problem session, one 3-hour laboratory. D. Libby
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to computer use in chemical experimentation and research, including spreadsheets and statistical programs to solve problems in chemical equilibrium and chemometrics. Real-time data acquisition hardware and software will be used to gather data for analysis in spreadsheets. Course also covers on-line searches of chemical literature using Chemical Abstracts and the Science Citation Index. Prerequisites: Chemistry 114 and Mathematics 170. Fall. One weekly 100-minute period. Salter
-
3.00 Credits
Theory and application of classical quantitative analysis techniques, including gravimetric, titrimetric, potentiometric, visible spectrophotometric, and liquid-liquid extraction methods as applied to organic and inorganic material. Introduction to statistical treatment of experimental data and development of comprehensive understanding of solution equilibria. Substantial laboratory component provides hands-on experience with each method, applied to the assay of real samples. Prerequisites: Chemistry 114 and 220.2 or permission of instructor. Spring. Two 70-minute periods, two 3-hour laboratories. Langhus
