Brief but comprehensive survey of important chemical theories and applications of chemistry. Preparation for one-semester courses in organic chemistry and biochemistry. Atomic structures, chemical bonding, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, states of matter, and theories of solutions. Does not fulfill the two-semester general chemistry requirement for majors in biology, chemistry, pharmacy, physics or agriculture, health and natural resources. Does not satisfy the admission requirements of medical and dental schools. CA 3-LAB.

The first semester of a 3-semester sequence that is designed to provide a foundation for the principles of chemistry with special guidance provided for the quantitative aspects of the material. Topics include the physical and chemical properties of some elements, chemical stoichiometry, gases, atomic theory and covalent bonding. CA 3-LAB.

Follows CHEM 1124Q. Topics include the properties of aqueous solutions and chemical equilibria. CA-3LAB. TOI-6L.

Follows CHEM 1125Q. Topics include the properties of kinetics, complex ions, thermodynamics and electrochemistry. CA-3LAB. TOI-6L.

Designed to provide a foundation for more advanced courses in chemistry. Atomic theory, laws and theories concerning the physical and chemical behavior of gases, liquids, solids, and solutions. Quantitative measurements illustrating the laws of chemical combination in the laboratory component. CA 3-LAB.

Equilibrium, thermodynamics, nuclear chemistry, and kinetics. Properties of some of the more familiar elements and their compounds. Equilibrium in solutions and reactions of the common cations and anions in the laboratory component. CA 3-LAB.

Designed to provide a foundation for more advanced courses in chemistry. Atomic theory, laws and theories concerning the physical and chemical behavior of gases, liquids, solids, and solutions. Quantitative measurements illustrating the laws of chemical combination in the laboratory component. Considerable personal initiative will be demanded of students in carrying out the laboratory assignments. Designed primarily for exceptionally well-prepared science and engineering students, although any qualified honors student may take it; can be used as an alternate wherever CHEM 1127Q is listed as a prerequisite. CA 3-LAB.

Internship in research laboratories.

Readings, lectures, films and field trips exploring the field of chemistry and its scientific and social implications.

With a change of content this course may be repeated for credit.

An abridged course in organic chemistry designed to provide a background for related fields in which a general rather than a detailed knowledge of the compounds of carbon is required.

Structure and reactions of the simpler classes of the compounds of carbon.

A continuation of CHEM 2443.

Introduction to techniques, manipulations, calculations and spectroscopy.

Covers various aspects of technical writing and oral presentation of technical reports. The student will be introduced to the broad spectrum of the chemical literature; various approaches to information retrieval, including computer searches, will be demonstrated. Short reports based on chemical literature will include references and bibliographies. A major paper on a technical topic will be evaluated and corrected at each stage of its development. An oral report based on this material will also be required.

Original investigation carried on by the student under the guidance of a staff member. The student is required to submit a brief report at the end of each semester.

Consent of Department head required before student's departure. May count toward the major with consent of the Department Head.

Discussions of topics relevant to further study and work in the field of chemistry. Students taking this course will be assigned a final grade of S (satisfactory) or U (Unsatisfactory).

Introduction to bonding, structure, spectroscopy, physical properties, and reactivity of inorganic compounds.

A systematic presentation of bonding, structure, properties, and reactions of inorganic compounds.

The preparation, isolation, purification, and characterization of inorganic compounds; special techniques and instrumentation may be required.

Fundamentals of analytical chemistry. While it is a course for chemistry majors, it is also suitable for students in other technical fields who have an interest in learning quantitative analytical chemistry procedures applicable to analytical instrumentation. Traditional wet chemical techniques and instrumental methods. Quantitative chemistry and chemical computations.

Instrumental analytical techniques including molecular spectroscopy, atomic spectroscopy, electrochemistry, separations, and introductory electronics. This course is an extension of the instrumental portion of CHEM 3332.

A study of gases, liquids, solids, solutions, and thermodynamics.

A study of kinetics, atomic and molecular theory and spectroscopy.
