DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS Astronomy
CHEM 2112 STRUCTURE AND BONDING A study of molecular structure and bonding beyond what is offered in General Chemistry courses. Topics covered include an overview of modern atomic theory, symmetry and group theory applications to chemistry, molecular orbital theory, advanced acid-base theories, descriptive inorganic chemistry, and nuclear chemistry. Prerequisite: CHEM 1303. S CHEM 2114 ORGANIC/BIOCHEMISTRY A survey course covering sufficient organic chemistry to support eight weeks of biochemistry material. The course is designed for Medical Technology majors, Environmental Technology majors, and Chemistry minors. The laboratory component of the course is designed to fortify the understanding of the major topics of the course. Prerequisites: CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352. D CHEM 2122 PROBLEM SOLVING IN ORGANIC CHEMISTRY II A recitation-style approach to solving problems relating to topics encountered in Organic Chemistry II. Corequisite: CHEM 4113 or CHEM 4115. Prerequisite: CHEM 3013 or CHEM 3015. D CHEM 2612 PRINCIPLES OF LABORATORY SAFETY Introduction to the principles of laboratory safety focused on recognizing, assessing and minimizing the risks of hazards, and preparing for emergencies. Topics include the planning of experiments and evaluations of their physical and chemical hazards, managing chemicals and waste, safe use of laboratory and personal protective equipment, emergency response to chemical spills and fires, hazard communication, safety ethics and government regulation. In addition to Chemistry, this course may be useful to Physics, Biology, Engineering Technology, Secondary Education, Health Sciences and other majors who may be working in a laboratory setting. Prerequisite: prior or concurrent enrollment in An introduction to organic chemistry. Emphasis is placed on structure and reaction mechanisms. The chemistry of hydrocarbons is developed in detail. Prerequisites: CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352. F, S, SU CHEM 3015 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I Same as 3013 except that theoretical principles are presented in more detail. The accompanying laboratory meets six hours each week and the instruction in modern instrumental techniques is more rigorous than in CHEM 3111. The course is designed for students majoring in chemistry and other science areas. Prerequisites: CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352. F CHEM 3111 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I LABORATORY Methods of separation of mixtures and determination of the physical and structural properties of compounds are emphasized. Spectroscopy and chromatography are introduced with some applications. Prerequisites: CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352. Corequisite: CHEM 3013. F, S, SU CHEM 3124 QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS An introductory course in analytical chemistry which includes sampling, separations (precipitation, solvent extraction, ion exchange, chromatography); and determinations (by titrimetry, gravimetry, colorimetry, and potentiometry techniques). Prerequisites: CHEM 1303 and CHEM 1352. F CHEM 3211 INORGANIC CHEMISTRY LAB The lab meets three hours each week and focuses on the synthesis (including inert atmosphere and vacuum line techniques), purification (including chromatography and crystallization techniques), and characterization (including magnetic susceptibility, conductivity, UV-Vis, IR, NMR, X-ray diffraction, and mass spectra) of inorganic ligands and CHEM 1303 or permission of instructor. S CHEM 3013 ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I
ASTRO 1904 ASTRONOMY An introductory course stressing basic science and how we arrived at our present knowledge. Topics include: history of astronomy; planets; meteorites; comets; asteroids; birth, life, and death of stars; galaxies; quasars; black holes; and cosmology. Several night viewing sessions will be arranged. F, S, SU ASTRO 4012 SEMINAR IN ASTRONOMY Study of topics of current interest such as extraterrestrial life, colonizing space, astrology, Bermuda Triangle, black holes, UFO’s, etc. Special attention is given to the questions asked of science teachers. D Chemistry CHEM 1004 GENERAL CHEMISTRY A survey course in general chemistry designed for students requiring a single chemistry course (of 4 hours or fewer) in their major or for students requiring a preparatory course for CHEM 1203 and CHEM 1252, General Chemistry I. Topics include measurements, atomic theory, bonding, naming/writing formulas of inorganic compounds, properties of solids/liquids/gases, energy (primarily light/heat), reactions (including balancing equations, stoichiometry, equilibrium), solutions/concentrations, and acids/bases. The laboratory is designed to fortify the understanding of the major topics of the course. No prerequisites although a minimal algebra background is helpful. F, S CHEM 1203 GENERAL CHEMISTRY I (LECTURE) An introduction to chemical principles for students intending to major in science areas. Topics include concentration, stoichiometry, thermodynamics, atomic and molecular theory, properties of gases, liquids, and solids. Prerequisite: Completion of or concurrent enrollment in MATH 1513. F, S, SU CHEM 1252 GENERAL CHEMISTRY I (LAB) Laboratory for General Chemistry I. Experimental investigation of those topics introduced in 1203 and introduction to visible spectroscopy. Completion of or concurrent enrollment in CHEM 1203. F, S, SU CHEM 1303 GENERAL CHEMISTRY II (LECTURE) A continuation of chemical principles for students intending to major in science areas. Topics include kinetics, equilibria, acids and bases, second law, electrochemistry, and nuclear chemistry. Prerequisites: CHEM 1203 and completion of or concurrent enrollment in CHEM 1252. F, S, SU CHEM 1352 GENERAL CHEMISTRY II (LAB) Laboratory for General Chemistry II. Experimental investigation of those topics introduced in CHEM 1303. Prerequisites: CHEM 1203 and CHEM 1252. Completion of or concurrent enrollment in CHEM 1303. F, S, SU CHEM 2001-4 INDIVIDUAL STUDY IN CHEMISTRY (TOPIC) Specified topic in Chemistry. 1-4 hours credit. CHEM 2011-4 SEMINAR IN CHEMISTRY (TOPIC) Study of specified topic in chemistry for undergraduate students. Credit one to four semester hours. D CHEM 2044 CLINICAL CHEMISTRY The study of various chemical analyses of body fluids. Emphasis is on reactions, reagents and reference ranges of analytes measured in the clinical chemistry lab. S
