CHEM

7 courses with the subject CHEM, 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.

CHEM 103General Chemistry I w/Lab4

A systematic investigation of the fundamental principles of chemistry and the scientific method. The laws, theories and mathematical concepts surrounding chemical reactions are examined. Discussions on the metric system, stoichiometry, thermochemistry, and atomic structure are included. Intra and intermolecular interactions, bonding and the physical properties associated with the solid, liquid, and gas phases are covered in detail. The laboratory component of this course is delivered using virtual labs with detailed instruction and demonstrations from an experienced chemist.

Lab (4) This course is a one-semester survey of the major topics and concepts of organic chemistry. The course will focus on the element carbon and compounds formed by carbon and other elements of interest. The course will explore and characterize organic compounds classified into families or groups according to the constitution of the hydrocarbon skeleton and functional groupings of heteroatoms. Specifically, for each class or family of compound, the course will explore the nomenclature, properties, reactivity, and preparation of (by synthesis or other means) that class or family of molecule. The laboratory portion of the course will focus on the skills and techniques common to the organic chemistry lab for the isolation, purification, and characterization or organic compounds. Selected synthetic methods for the preparation of organic compounds will also be explored focusing on foundational reaction types and synthetic methodologies. The laboratory component is delivered using virtual labs and interactive simulations with detailed instruction and demonstrations from an experienced chemist.
