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, or its equivalent. Class size: 20

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. Prerequisite: CHEM 201. Class size: 20

Christopher LaFratta

T 3:10pm-5:30pm

RKC 122

A central goal of nanoscience and technology is to make useful materials and devices through the synthesis and patterning of nanoscale building blocks.  In this course we will study the synthetic methods used to make metallic and semiconducting nanocrystals, as well as polymeric and bio-inspired nanomaterials.  We will also explore techniques that have been developed to organize and integrate these building blocks into functional architectures via self-assembly, templating, and lithography.  This seminar style course will draw extensively on recent literature in chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering journals.
