An introduction to the composition, structure, and
properties of matter. The first semester covers stoichiometry, atomic
structure, periodic trends, bonding and
molecular geometry, and the behavior
of gases, liquids, and solids. The laboratory stresses basic techniques and
quantitative applications. Basic algebra skills are required. Concurrent
enrollment in calculus is recommended for students who intend to go on in
chemistry.

Structure and reactions of specific types of
organic compounds will be studied, and interrelationships will be developed, to
provide an integrated understanding of organic chemistry. General principles
and reaction mechanisms will be emphasized, but the accumulation and
utilization of factual material will also be expected. The laboratory will be
coordinated with classroom topics and should provide direct experience with
many reactions and concepts. The lab is also intended to develop familiarity
with experimental design, techniques, and instrumental methods such as
chromatography and spectroscopy.
Prerequisite: Chemistry 101‑102.

This course surveys the field of analytical
chemistry with emphasis on the basic principle of solution equilibria.
Quantitative treatment of solubility, acidity, and oxidation potential provide
the background for the understanding of gravimetric and volumetric techniques.
Modern methods of instrumental analysis are studied and integrated into the
laboratory work.

Application of the mechanistic theories of organic
chemistry to the reactions found in biological systems. General reaction types
are studied by analogous “model systems”, and the extrapolation of these
reactions to biological systems is developed. Experimental results with
specific enzymes are used to support postulated mechanisms and to illuminate
enzymatic strategies for rate optimization and product control. Some time is
spent in analyzing the design of metabolic pathways that use common enzymatic
reactions.
