Chemistry

An introductory level course designed to be the first semester of the General, Organic and Biochemistry sequence, introducing fundamental concepts in chemistry. This course introduces topics of measurement, atomic theory, chemical bonding, ionic and covalent compounds, naming, shape, intermolecular forces, states of matter, stoichiometric relationships, solutions, reaction rates, equilibria, and acid-base chemistry. Includes a laboratory section.

An introductory level course designed to be the second semester of the General, Organic and Biochemistry sequence, introducing organic chemistry and biochemistry. This course includes topics on functional groups, nomenclature, organic reactions, proteins, enzymatic action, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and metabolism. Includes a laboratory section.

A beginning chemistry course designed to be the second semester of the two-semester general chemistry sequence. This course covers topics of physical states, solutions, reaction rates and mechanisms, chemical equilibrium, acid-base chemistry, thermodynamics, and electrochemistry. Includes a laboratory section.

An upper-level course designed to be the first semester of a two-semester sequence covering organic chemistry. This course covers topics of organic structure and bonding, nomenclature, stereochemistry, functional groups, reactivity, and spectroscopy. Includes a laboratory section.

An upper-level course designed to be the second semester of a two-semester sequence covering organic chemistry. This course continues the study of organic structure and bonding, nomenclature, stereochemistry, functional groups, reactivity, and spectroscopy. Includes a laboratory section.
