-
2.00 Credits
This lab emphasizes the refinement of quantitative analytical wet method techniques and the application of basic statistical methods of data analysis. Corequisite: CHEM 122 or CHEM 212. Laboratory, four hours; recitation, two hours.
-
3.00 Credits
The course provides students with an appreciation and understanding of the fundamental and theoretical background concepts in environmental chemistry including aquatic, atmospheric, geologic, biospheric and anthropogenc. Students will learn environmental testing methods and gain the knowledge necessary for critical evaluation of procedtures and data derived from environmental testing. Prerequisite: C or better in CHEM 121, CHEM 122, and MATH 115.
-
4.00 Credits
This one semester course will present the principles of physical chemistry and its application in the life and forensic sciences. Areas that will be covered include enthalpy, entropy, free energy, chemical and biochemical equilibria, redox chemistry, kinetics and spectroscopy. Illustration of how these principles are applied to fundamental problems in the life sciences, forensic sciences and bio- chemistry will be made. Prerequisite: a C or better in CHEM 212 or CHEM 212H. Lecture, 4 hours.
-
3.00 Credits
A survey of the basic principles required for understanding inorganic chemistry including atomic and molecular structure, Crystal structure, non-aquenos solvents and coordination compounds.
-
3.00 Credits
A survey of the basic principles required for understanding inorganic chemistry including molecular structure, periodic trends, bonding models, crystal structure, and the 18-electron rule, as well as principles will be applied and principally to the main group elements and their compounds. An introductuion to molecular symmetry and transition metal chemistry will also be provided. Prerequisite: a C or better in CHEM 321 (or CHEM 301). Lecture, three hours.
-
4.00 Credits
This class provides an understanding of atomic and molecular structure and energy. Competency in integration, differentiation, complex analysis, and liner algebra is expected and reviewed. The material covered involves the Schrodinger equation, particle in a box, postulates of quantum mechanics, the harmonic oscillator and rigid roto, and the hydrogen atom. The class objective is to establish a solid foundation in quantum chemistry to be applied and understood in more advanced topics of chemical bonding and molecular spectroscopy. Prerequisites: PHYS 202 or 212. C or better in CHEM 212. C or better in MATH 116. Lecture, three hours.
-
4.00 Credits
This class builds upon the quantum foundation of simple models to understand more complex phenomena involving chemical bonding. First, the variational and perturbation techniques are examined to explore the ideas behind chemical bonding. Computational quantum chemistry and group theory are employed to give a quantitative experience beyond the theory. The second half of the class integrates quantum principles with thermodynamics through the partition function. The class objective is to establish a solid foundation in quantum chemistry to be applied and understood in chemical bonding, molecular spectroscopy, and thermodynamics. Prerequisite: C or better in CHEM 321. Lecture, three hours.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Students consolidate basic laboratory technique and learn to use and interpret results from modern chemical analytical instrumentation. Experiments are open-ended allowing students to approach problems in a genuine scientific format of designing their approach to defined problems; executing the experiments, and interpreting the results. Topic areas are drawn from inorganic synthesis, kinetics, chemical analysis, biochemical analysis, and spectroscopy. Techniques include chromatography, spectroscopy, electrophoresis, computational methods and statistics. Students will begin learning to inteperet and communicate their work. Prerequisite: a C or better in CHEM 301 or CHEM 321. Laboratory, eight hours; recitation, two hours.
-
1.00 Credits
Recitation meets once per week to discuss work done in integrated lab, to plan for the coming week, to exchange information among groups, to learn fundamental instrumentation and chemical principles as they apply to the integrated lab projects, and to develop communication and teamwork skills.
-
3.00 Credits
The focus of this class is thermodynamics and kinetics. Course content builds upon basic ideas and concepts presented in the previous two semesters. The material integrates classical thermodynamics into the ideas and concepts covering the Laws of Thermodynamics, physical and chemical equilibria, solutions, electrochemistry and gas phase kinetics. The class objective is to establish a solid foundation in thermodynamics and kinetics to be applied and understood in the behavior of matter. Prerequisite: C or better in CHEM 322. Lecture, three hours.
