Experience in classical and modern physiochemical techniques applied to making meaningful chemical measurements. Pre-lab lecture. Part illustrates material offered in junior-level chemistry major physical chemistry lecture course; part is independent. Prerequisites: working knowledge of common analytical techniques or CHEM 315; MATH 233, PHYSICS 152; concurrent enrollment in CHEM 473, 474, 475, or 476.

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.
