CHEM030R: Introduction to Chemical Principles

Class Program
Chemistry
Credits 2 Lecture Hours 2
This course is a conceptual introduction to the basic principles related to the structure of matter and the nature of chemical reactions. Particular attention will be given to the types of reactions that apply to the health field. Since this course is high school level chemistry course, credits earned will not count towards graduation requirements.

CHEM140R: General Chemistry I

Class Program
Chemistry
Credits 4 Lab Hours 3 Lecture Hours 3

General Chemistry I introduces the student to the principles of chemistry included in the first semester of a two-semester chemistry course. The course will include topics such as components of matter, stoichiometry, chemical reactions, gas and kinetic-molecular theory, thermochemistry, quantum theory and atomic structure, chemical periodicity, chemical bonding, and molecular geometry. Principles taught in lectures will be reinforced in laboratory experiments.
