-
1.00 Credits
Organic laboratory techniques (mostly microscale) used to conduct synthesis, isolation, purification, and characterization of organic compounds are performed by students. Ultraviolet-visible, infrared, and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic techniques are utilized for structure elucidation of the synthesized compounds. Prerequisite: CHEM342 or equivalent (not CHEM323).
-
1.00 Credits
Examines chemical safety issues with an emphasis on issues relating to academic laboratories, including handling and storage of chemicals, use of safety equipment, electrical safety, and right-to-know and other legal aspects of safety. Prerequisites: 12 credit-hours of chemistry or permission of the instructor.
-
1.00 Credits
Examines issues in chemistry and relates them to the writings of several philosophers as they pertain to ethics. Prerequisites: 12 credit-hours in chemistry or permission of the instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
This course discusses the principles and applications of physical and mathematical methods to describe chemical systems. The topics include properties of ideal and non-ideal gases, thermodynamic principles and applications, chemical equilibria and phase diagrams. Prerequisites: Two semesters each of general chemistry, calculus, and physics; and one semester of analytical chemistry.
-
1.00 Credits
Demonstrates the principles and practice of physical- chemical measurements. Laboratory experiments include molecular weight determination, high vacuum line techniques, heats of solution using solution calorimeter, heat of combustion using bomb calorimeter, vapor pressure, and heat of vaporization of volatile liquids, as well as chemical computations. Prerequisite: CHEM366 or concurrent enrollment.
