This courses addresses basic concepts of chemistry as they pertain to the health sciences and is a good preparation for students who intend to pursue a career in nursing. This course will cover topics such as making measurements, dimensional analysis, atomic structure, types of bonding, as well as some introduction to reactions, particularly acids and bases. Prerequisite: high school algebra or equivalent. This course meets for 7 weeks. Core: NS
This course addresses basic concepts of chemistry and physics in the context of social, environmental, and political issues. This course will cover topics such as atomic structure and bonding, the physics of energy, chemical reactions in air and water, and the nature of scientific inquiry. Two lectures and one laboratory per week. Prerequisite: high school algebra or equivalent 178 – Course Descriptions

An introduction to concepts in atmospheric, aquatic, and terrestrial chemistry, pollution, and energy production and consumption. Students and faculty work together with members of the community at large to investigate local environmental issues, and to educate the community about these issues. Laboratory work includes common field sampling and analytical techniques, and statistical analysis of chemical data. Students are expected to design, conduct, and report on experimentation to confirm measurements of environmental analytes using multiple strategies. Three lectures and one laboratory period or field-trip per week. Prerequisite: CHEM 223 and an annual safety training outside of class. (Spring 2024) Core: CL
This course will address understanding some of the current and emerging "energy alternatives" by looking at the chemistry underlying each means of energy production. Topics addressed will fall into three broad categories: electrochemistry (photovoltaics, fuel cells, batteries, etc.), thermodynamics (fuels) and nuclear chemistry. The course will have several short laboratory exercises to provide a hands-on introduction to several energy sources and students will pursue an in-depth project. Prerequisite: CHEM 223 and an annual safety training outside of class. (Spring 2023)
