Course	CHEM 142 Basic Principles of Chemistry II
Professor	Simeen Sattar
CRN	15251
Schedule	Tu Th 10:30 - 12:30 pm HEG 106 Lab schedule (students attend one) A: Tu 1:30 - 4:00 pm HEG 204 B: Wed 1:30 - 4:00 pm HEG 204
Distribution	OLD: E/G/Q	NEW: Laboratory Science

Central concepts in this second part of the course are energy transfer, spontaneity, and change (thermochemistry, chemical equilibrium, and kinetics). The laboratory stresses basic laboratory techniques and quantitative applications. Basic skills in mathematics and facility with algebra are required. Concurrent enrollment in calculus is recommended for students who intend to concentrate in chemistry.

Prerequisite: Chemistry 141

Course	CHEM 202 Organic Chemistry II
Professor	Kim Touchette
CRN	15252
Schedule	Tu Th 10:30 - 12:30 pm HEG 201 Lab schedule (students attend one) A: Tu 1:30 - 5:30 pm ROSE 205 B: Th 1:30 - 5:30 pm ROSE 205
Distribution	OLD: E/G/Q	NEW: Laboratory Science

Students study the structure and reactions of specific types of organic compounds and develop interrelationships that provide an integrated understanding of organic chemistry. The course emphasizes general principles and reaction mechanisms, but students are also expected to accumulate and utilize factual material. The laboratory is coordinated with classroom topics and should provide direct experience with many reactions and concepts. The laboratory is also intended to develop familiarity with experiment design, experimental techniques, and instrumental methods such as chromatography and spectroscopy.
Prerequisites: Chemistry 201

Course	CHEM 408 Organic Synthesis
Professor	Hilton Weiss
CRN	15474
Schedule	TBA
Distribution	OLD: E/G/Q	NEW: Laboratory Science

Recent papers in organic synthesis will be presented by the professor, participating students, and visiting speakers from industry and universities. There will be exams but performance will be evaluated primarily on the basis of seminar participation and presentation.

Prerequisite: Chemistry 202

Course	CHEM 411 Physical Chemistry I
Professor	Simeen Sattar
CRN	15253
Schedule	M W 10:30 - 12:30 pm HEG 201 Mon 1:30 - 4:00 pm HEG 204
Distribution	OLD: E/G/Q	NEW: Laboratory Science

This course stresses a modern, molecular approach to the subject of physical chemistry. The first semester begins with a study of model quantum mechanical systems and culminates in the application of the model systems to atomic and molecular structure and spectra. Statistical mechanics is used as a bridge between quantum mechanics and the second semester topics of equilibrium thermodynamics and chemical kinetics. Selected experiments illustrate the central topics. Students analyze their data with particular emphasis on the way in which error in fundamental measurements propagates through to error in final results. Molecular modeling software is used to go beyond consideration of prototypical systems.

Prerequisites: Chemistry 141-142, Physics 141-142, and Mathematics 141-142 and 212.
