Course	CHEM 141 Basic Principles of Chemistry
Professor	Craig Anderson
CRN	95233
Schedule	Tu Th 9:50 - 11:50 am HEG 102 Tu 1:30 -4:00 pm HEG 204 OR Wed 1:30 -4:00 pm HEG 204
Distribution	OLD: E/G/Q	NEW: LABORATORY SCIENCE

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.

Course	CHEM 201 Organic Chemistry
Professor	Kim Touchette
CRN	95234
Schedule	Tu Th 9:50 - 11:50 am HEG 201 Tu (Lab) 1:30 -5:30 pm ROSE 205 OR Th (Lab) 1:30 -5:30 pm ROSE 205

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 141‑142.

Course	CHEM 412 Physical Chemistry
Professor	Simeen Sattar
CRN	95235
Schedule	Mon Wed 10:30 - 12:30 pm HEG 106 Mon 1:30 -4:00 pm HEG 204
Distribution	OLD: E/G	NEW: LABORATORY SCIENCE

This course continues a modern, molecular approach to Physical Chemistry. Statistical mechanics is developed as the link between quantum chemistry (discussed in Chemistry 411) and equilibrium thermodynamics and chemical kinetics. Carefully chosen experiments illustrate these topics.

Prerequisite: Chemistry 411

Course	CHEM 414 Chemical Kinetics

2 credits. Topics include the kinetic theory of gases; rates of chemical reactions and how these rates can be explained in terms of reaction mechanisms; theories of chemical kinetics; and reaction dynamics.

Pre-requisites: Chemistry 141-142, Mathematics 141-142.
