3.00 Credits
CHE 120 is an introductory course, which is designed for Health Sciences majors and other health-related professions. It is a one-semester course that will discuss fundamental principles of General Chemistry basic to the understanding of the health related sciences. Principles of atomic structure, periodicity, chemical bonding, molecular structure, stoichiometry, states of matter, thermodynamics, acids and bases, concentration units, kinetics, equilibria, nuclear chemistry, and electrochemistry will be discussed. Additionally, fundamentals of organic nomenclature and a survey of the physical, chemical and biological properties of the main organic functional groups will be covered.
Prerequisite:
One year of high school chemistry is recommended; high school algebra or concurrent registration in MAT-110 or a higher-level mathematics course is required.

CHE 121 is a continuation of CHE 120 and an introductory course which serves as an elective for Health Sciences Majors and other health-related professions. It is a one-semester course that will discuss fundamental principles of General Chemistry basic to the understanding of the health related sciences. The course will cover, in depth, concepts covered in CHE 120, which include the following: Principles of atomic structure, periodicity, chemical bonding, molecular structure, stoichiometry, states of matter, thermodynamics, acids and bases, concentration units, kinetics, equilibria, nuclear chemistry, and electrochemistry. The concepts will be covered in the context and application of Organic and Biological Chemistry. In addition, the fundamentals of organic nomenclature and a survey of the physical, chemical and biological properties of the main organic functional groups will be covered. Additionally, fundamental Organic Chemistry reaction mechanisms will be discussed. Finally, fundamental Biochemistry concepts such as protein structure/function, DNA/RNA structure/function, and basic biological pathways will be covered.

This course covers the properties, nomenclature, reactions and syntheses of alkenes, alkenes, alkynes, arenes, alkyl halides, alcohols and ethers. Major reaction types include electrophilic addition, radical addition and substitution, nucleophilic substitution, elimination, acid-base and stereochemical reactions. The laboratory involves the separation, purification and synthesis of organic compounds using microscale apparatus. Four hours lecture, one hour recitation, and one three-hour laboratory per week are required.

3.00 Credits
This course covers the remaining major functional group compounds including carbonyl compounds, carboxylic acids and acid derivatives, amines, phenols and an introduction to the major biochemical groups. Spectroscopic methods (infrared, ultraviolet, mass and nuclear magnetic resonance) are studied and used in the laboratory for qualitative analysis. Four hours lecture, one hour recitation, and one three-hour laboratory per week are required.
