Course Descriptions
30. Introduction to Chemical Properties: An introduction to important topics in chemistry: atomic
structure, properties of matter, chemical reactions,
energy, structure and bonding in organic and inorganic
compounds, chemical equilibrium. The course features a
lecture tightly linked to a three-hour studio experience
that combines laboratory work and recitation. (NS)
31. Chemical Equilibria in Aqueous Systems: A study of the theoretical basis and practical applications of equilibria in aqueous solutions, including acid-base, precipitation-solubility, metal-ligand, oxidation-reduction and distribution equilibria. Introduction to chemical thermodynamics, spectrophotometry, potentiometry and chromatography. The laboratory work emphasizes the qualitative and quantitative analysis of equilibria in aqueous media. Prerequisite: CHM 25, MATH 21, 31 or 51. Two lectures and one three-hour laboratory period. NS
