25 courses with the subject CHY, 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.
CHY 110FUNDAMENTALS OF CHEMISTRY Four hours credit
Chemistry 110 will be the entry level chemistry course based on no higb school chem- istry, science and mathematics ACT scores, and testing. Fundamental laws, states and mat- ter, structure of matter, the periodic table and valence, ionization, oxidation and reduction, equilibrium, the chemical balance in quantitative analysis will be studied. 150 minutes lec- ture and 120 minutes lab per week. Prerequisite: High school algebra or equivalent. Offered Fall Semester.
Fundamental laws, states of matter, the periodic table and valence, ionization, oxidation and reduction, equilibrium, and the chemical balance in quantitative analysis. 150 minutes lecture and 120 minutes lab per week. Prerequisite: High school algebra or equivalent. Offered every semester.

CHY 298LORGANIC CHEMISTRY LABORATORY Three hours credit
The reinforcement of selected material from CHY 281 and 282 will be accomplished in the laboratory by the isolation of naturally occurring organic compounds and the synthesis of other organic compounds. Prerequisite: Organic Chemistry I (CHY 281). Corequisite: Organic Chemistry II (CHY 282). 360 minutes of lab per week. Offered Spring Semester.
Emphasis is on human biochemistry and a study of the chemical composition of living matter and of the chemical and biological changes that occur in it during life processes: the chemistry and metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, nucleotides, and the biosyn thesis of nucleic acids and proteins. Prerequisite: Organic Chemistry I (CHY281). 150 min- utes of lecture per week. Offered Spring Semester.
A continuation of Biochemistry 321 with emphasis on human biochemistry of hor- mones, vitamins, enzymes, blood, urine, nutrition, chemistry of respiration, citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain. Prerequisite: Biochemistry I (CHY 321). 150 minutes of lec- ture per week. Offered Fall Semester.
A continuation of Biochemistry 322 with emphasis on human chemical and biological changes that occur including biosynthesis of lipids, amino acids, and nucleotides in relation to metabolism and gene replication and expression. Prerequisite: Biochemistry II (CHY 322j. 150 minutes of lecture per week. Offered Spring Semester.
This course will be an introduction to biochemical technique, which will include isola- tion, classification and quantification of both proteins and genetic material. These experi ments will serve to reinforce material learned in the lecture class. 360 minutes of laboratory per week. The course is designed for juniors or seniors with Biochemistry 321 as a prerequi- site and Biochemistry 322 as a corequisite. Offered Fall Semester.
Acid-base equilibria in water, stoichiometry, oxidation-reduction system, applications of volumetric titrations, elementary spectrophotometry and potentiometric methods, and prin- ciples of gravimetry. 100 minutes lecture and 220 minutes lab per week. Prerequisite: CHY 112. Offered Fall Semester, even years.
Fundamentals of scientific research including what science is, the scientific method, experimental design, statistical analysis, scientific literature, and writing a scientific paper. During the semester, the student will be responsible for conducting a literature search per- taining to an aspect of ongoing research in the department at that time. In addition, a research proposal will be prepared by the student in preparation for participation in the departmental research program the following semester. Offered Fall Semester.
The application of the fundamentals of scientific research learned in Introduction to Research (Chemistry 380). The student will conduct the research described in his/her
