CH 203 Fundamentals of General, Organic,
and Biological Chemistry I (F/S)
4 Semester Hours
Prerequisite: EN 090, EN 099, MT 090, and MT 099 OR minimum
acceptable test scores for placement in college-level English and
math.
Laboratory Course: 3 hours in the classroom and 2 hours lab work each week.
This course is intended primarily for those students pursuing
careers in the professional health care fields. Calculations
involving physical quantities will be presented followed by atomic
structure, chemical bonding, and chemical reactions. The course
will then cover gas laws, solution chemistry, and acidity. A brief
introduction to structural organic chemistry will also be
presented.
CH 204
Fundamentals of General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry II
(S)
4 Semester Hours
Prerequisite: CH 203.
Laboratory Course: 3 hours in the classroom and 2 hours lab work
each week.
Beginning with a review of organic nomenclature, this course
focuses on classes of organic compounds and their reactions.
Several biochemical topics will be introduced, including the
chemistry of the major classes of biological molecules. The course
will cover the structure and reactions of bodily fluids, as well
as energy-acquiring and energy-releasing pathways.
CH 213
Principles of Chemistry I (F)
4 Semester Hours
Prerequisite: EN 090, EN 099, and MT 123 (MT 123 waived for ACT math
score of 20 or higher) OR minimum acceptable test scores for
placement in college-level English.
A Laboratory Course: 3 hours in the classroom and 2 hours lab work
each week.
Intended primarily for science majors, this course covers the
properties of matter and their measurement, atomic theory,
reaction stoichiometry, and thermochemistry. Electron
configurations, chemical bonding, and molecular geometry will also
be introduced.
CH 214
Principles of Chemistry II (S)
4 Semester Hours
Prerequisite: CH 213.
A Laboratory Course: 3 hours in the classroom and 2 hours lab work
each week.
A continuation of CH 213, this course deals with intermolecular
forces, solution properties, kinetics, and acid-base reactions.
The course will also cover gas laws, chemical equilibrium,
thermodynamics, and electrochemistry.
CH 223
Organic Chemistry I (O)
3 Semester Hours
Prerequisite: CH 214.
This course presents the chemistry of aliphatic compounds with
emphasis on the mechanisms and stereochemistry of their reactions.
Modern nomenclature and descriptions of stereoscopic methods in
organic chemistry are discussed throughout the course. The
laboratory accompanying this course presents an introduction to
the fundamental laboratory techniques used in organic chemistry.
CH 224
Organic Chemistry I Lab (O)
2 Semester Hours
Co-requisite: CH 223.
This course is an accompanying lab course for students enrolled in
CH 223. This course presents an introduction to the fundamental
laboratory techniques used in organic chemistry.
CH 225
Organic Chemistry II (O)
3 Semester Hours
Prerequisite: CH 223.
A continuation of Organic Chemistry I. This course presents the
chemistry of aromatic compounds and the major classes of
biological chemical compounds, along with modern methods of
chemical synthesis.
CH 226
Organic Chemistry II Lab (O)
2 Semester Hours
Co-requisite: CH 225.
This is an accompanying lab for students enrolled in CH 225. This
course continues to emphasize the basic methods and techniques
used in preparing organic compounds, while introducing qualitative
organic syntheses.
CH 275
Special Topics in Chemistry (O)
1-3 Semester Hours
Prerequisite: Permission of Division Chair.
Presents courses in Chemistry which the College expects to offer
only once or occasionally in response to specific community needs.
The course may consist of seminars, specialized or individual
instruction, and/or research in an area related to Chemistry.
