3.00 Credits
This course exposes students who have already been introduced to the theory of classical (CH 222 or CH 240) and instrumental (CH 326 or CH 240) methods of analysis to problem solving using a variety of physical and chemical methods.The early portion of this course consolidates the classroom principles of analytical chemistry into a holistic understanding of analytical chemistry, giving students a further appreciation of the general considerations made when designing an approach to problem solving in analysis.Students receive hands-on exposure to the following aspects of analytical chemistry: basic electronics as appropriate to common instrumentation, methodology involved in equipment maintenance and troubleshooting, exposure to solving real-world analytical problems, and use of small computers and interfaces in the lab.The course emphasizes oral communication of results among all lab participants.(Prerequisites: CH 222, CH 326 course) Three credits.

3.00 Credits
This course introduces basic chemical concepts, such as the atom, molecules, chemical reactivity and energy, as well as integrating fundamental biological concepts including cell structure and basic anatomy.Further explored, on a chemical level, are the structure and function of basic nutritional components: proteins, carbohydrate, lipids, vitamins, and minerals.With a scientific foundation established, topics pertaining to nutrition and human evolution, the life cycle, and exercise will be discussed.Current social and health issues such as obesity, food technology, and fad dieting will be incorporated throughout the course.Note: This course counts as a science core course but does not satisfy requirements for the chemistry major or minor.Three credits.
-
1.00 Credits
The laboratory portion of CH 341 is a synthetic inorganic lab with an emphasis placed on characterization.In the laboratory, students will have the opportunity to synthesize, characterize, and investigate the physical and reactivity properties of coordination, organometallic, and air-sensitive complexes.Students will utilize the following instrumental methods to characterize their compounds: UV-Visible spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility, polarimetry, infrared spectroscopy, and NMR spectroscopy.The students write formal laboratory reports for every experiment.(Corequisite: CH 261) One credit
-
3.00 Credits
This course, intended for second semester senior chemistry majors, offers a detailed, advanced treatment of topics from any of the four major fields of chemistry, tailoring topics in a given semester to meet the needs and interests of enrolled students.Professors vary based on chosen topics.(Prerequisite: CH 341) One, two, or three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
Students undertake a research project in conjunction with a faculty member and present two seminars: one pertaining to a literature topic, the other focused on their research.(Prerequisite: by departmental permission) One, two, or three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
This course, designed for students seeking an in-depth examination of a pre-specified area under the close direction of a faculty member(s) presents topics not routinely encountered in the normal course sequence.(Prerequisite: CH 262 or CH 202 or by departmental permission.) Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
This one-semester course presumes no previous chemistry and fulfills a science requirement.The course consists of an introduction to atomic and molecular structure and the correlation of structural models to observable phenomena.The course discusses topics of historical and current relevance to society, including environmental issues, energy sources, natural products, and the application of chemistry in industry and medicine.Note: This course counts as a science core course but does not satisfy requirements for the chemistry major or minor.Three credits.
-
1.00 Credits
This lab illustrates lecture concepts of CH 84 and allows students to observe relevant physical systems.One credit.
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores the flow of energy in modern society from the perspective of chemistry.Topics include hydrocarbons; biomass; and hydro, solar, tidal, wind; and nuclear energy sources.Students consider the source of energy, how it is harvested, and the short and long-term environmental consequences of using each energy source and how these consequences are determined.The course uses the concepts of bonding, thermodynamics, kinetics, and work to investigate these and related ideas.The course also discusses economic and political forces that shape our use of energy.Note: This course counts as a science core course but does not satisfy requirements for the chemistry major or minor.Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
This basic chemistry course with a strong orientation to the visual arts fulfills a core science requirement.Basic concepts include atoms, molecules, elements, compounds, the periodic table, chemical bonding and reaction, acids and bases, oxidation and reduction, and polymers.The lab employs these concepts to examine aspects of art media such as light, color, dyes, paint, metals, stone, ceramics, glass, plastics, paper, and fibers.Note: This course counts as a science core course but does not satisfy requirements for the chemistry major or minor.Three credits.
