Gen Chem-Sci

Basic principles of structure and reactivity. Microscopic nature of atoms and molecules; the macroscopic properties of chemical systems. Topics include stoichiometry, thermochemistry, atomic structure, molecular structure, properties of gases. (Gen.Ed. PS)


Prerequisites: MATH 101 and MATH 102, or its equivalent of MATH 104, or a score of 20 or higher on Part "A" of the Math Placement test, or MATH 127, 128, 131, or 132. Note: a maximum of 5 units may be received for both CHEM 101 and CHEM 102, or 2 units for either, if CHEM 111 is completed.

Organic Lab II

Experimental organic chemistry with emphasis on underlying physical principles. Separation and purification, synthesis, analysis, and identification of organic compounds, including spectroscopy. Micro-scale work predominates. Emphasis on safe laboratory practices and proper disposal of wastes. Concurrent enrollment in CHEM 261, 262 required. CHEM 263 plus 264 is the equivalent of CHEM 269.
