CHM 104 : Introduction to Chemistry I
This is a survey course of general chemistry for students who do not intend to major in science or engineering and may not be substituted for CHM 111. Lecture will emphasize the facts, principles, and theories of general chemistry including math operations, matter and energy, atomic structure, symbols and formulas, nomenclature, the periodic table, bonding concepts, equations, reactions, stoichiometry, gas laws, phases of matter, solutions, and gas laws. Laboratory is required. Hybrid/Online
Credits
4Prerequisites
A minimum of MTH098 or equivalent placement score.
CHM 105 : Introduction to Chemistry II
This is a survey course of organic chemistry and biochemistry for students who do not intend to major in science or engineering. Topics will include basic nomenclature, classification of organic compounds, typical organic reactions, reactions involved in life processes, function of biomolecules, and the handling and disposal of organic compounds. Laboratory is required. Hybrid/Online As required.
Credits
4Prerequisites
A grade of “C” or higher in CHM104 or CHM111.
CHM 111 : College Chemistry I
Credits
4Prerequisites
MTH 112 (Precalculus Algebra) or equivalent math placement score and the completion of either CHM 099, CHM 104 or high school chemistry
CHM 112 : College Chemistry II
This is the second course in a two-semester sequence designed primarily for the science and engineering student who is expected to have a strong background in mathematics. Topics in this course include chemical kinetics, chemical equilibria, acids and bases, ionic equilibria of weak electrolytes, solubility product principle, chemical thermodynamics, electrochemistry, solutions, reaction rates, colloids, heat transfer, pH, redox reactions gas laws, solids and liquids, selected topics in descriptive chemistry including metals, nonmetals and semimetals, qualitative analysis, kinetic molecular theory and intermolecular forces. Laboratory is required.
