19 courses with the subject CH, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
Elementary principles of chemistry such as chemical quantities, matter and energy, measurements and calculations, and chemical reactions. The overall objective of the course is to prepare students who have not studied chemistry at the high school level for

The course provides orientation for chemistry majors about the profession of chemistry including the study skills necessary to successfully complete chemistry courses and opportunities for graduate study in chemistry. Study skills taught include application of principles of mathematics to solving problems in chemistry, reading a course textbook effectively to understand principles of chemistry, and test taking skills for examinations in chemistry. The course is required for all first-year chemistry majors, and students enroll in CH 101 and CH 104 concurrently. One hour of lecture per week. Prerequisites: none.
A study of the properties, preparation, reactions, and characterization of carbon compounds. Three hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory each week. “C” or better.
204
A course in which the principles of chemical equilibrium are applied to the quantitative determination of the components of mixtures. Laboratory work includes volumetric analysis, gravimetric analysis, and an introduction to electrochemical methods. Samples analyzed may include environmental pollutants and food additives. Two hours of lecture- discussion and three hours of laboratory per week. Prerequisite: CH 101–102.
The application of modern electronic and optical instruments to qualitative and quantitative analysis. Emphasis is placed on chromatography, spectrophotometry, and electrochemistry. Two hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory per week. 133
A study of the chemistry of carbohydrates, amino acids, proteins, enzymes, lipids, and nucleic acids, metabolic pathways generating and storing energy, and gene expression. Discussions of important areas of current biochemical research are incorporated into the course. Three hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory each week. Prerequisite: CH 222 with a minimum grade of “C.”
A research project that includes laboratory research and a search of the literature pertaining to a research problem in chemistry. A major written laboratory report about the research project is required. A poster and/or an oral presentation about the project may also be required. The student arranges a research project with one of the faculty members of the program in Chemistry. Six (6) credit hours are required for chemistry majors. Prerequisite: completion of the sophomore year of study.
Topics concerning some of the latest achievements in important areas of biochemical research that have led to breakthroughs in the understanding of basic biochemical processes. Three hours of lecture per week. Prerequisites: CH 222.
This course provides training in the use of experimental techniques used in biochemical research, including protein and DNA electrophoresis and spectrophotometric enzyme assays. Two hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory each week. Prerequisites: CH 221–222.
A lecture and discussion course pertaining to current topics in chemistry. Topics may include the role of pesticides as environmental estrogens and the role of CFCs in the depletion of stratospheric ozone. Three hours of lecture per week. Prerequisite: consent of instructor.
Seniors majoring in chemistry will conduct a literature search on a current research topic in chemistry and present a seminar on their findings. Prerequisite: senior chemistry major.
Fundamental laws governing matter in the gaseous, liquid, and solid state, the laws of thermodynamics and their applications to chemistry, an introduction to statistical thermodynamics, properties of solutions, phase equilibria, chemical kinetics, and an introduction to quantum mechanical principles. Three hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory each week. Prerequisites: CH 223, CH 224, MA 221, MA 222, MA 223, and PY 221-222.
Fundamental laws governing matter in the gaseous, liquid, and solid state, the laws of thermodynamics and their applications to chemistry, an introduction to statistical thermodynamics, properties of solutions, phase equilibria, chemical kinetics, and an introduction to quantum mechanical principles. Three hours of lecture and three hours 134
The study of metals: their behaviors and roles in the biological system, acid-base chemistry, chemical bonding, atomic and molecular theory, and an introduction to group theory. There are three hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory each week.
This course applies modern objective instrumental tests and subjective taste testing evaluation to analyze chemical components of food involved in processes such as nutrient composition during ripening of fruits and vegetables, and texture degradation, post- harvest losses of vitamins, minerals, pigments, and flavor compounds during food processing and storage. Study of the functional properties and biochemical mechanisms of nutrients is included. Two hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory each week.
The course provides an opportunity for students to perform an independent study project in chemistry following guidelines provided by Bennett College. Open to junior and senior students. Prerequisite: consent of the program in Chemistry.
