Students explore the fundamentals of physical chemistry and organic chemistry, learning to predict and control chemical reactions important for biological and industrial processes. Topics include chemical kinetics, thermodynamics, equilibrium calculations, organic structure, and organic reactivity...

This course constitutes the second half of a first year course in general college chemistry. Topics include: solutions, energetics, thermo-dynamics, chemical kinetics, structure, and reactivity. Students may obtain credit for only one of CHEM 1220 or 1221. These courses have the same learning...

This course is intended for students who want an applied experiential learning opportunity which will build practical skills valued by employers, and be of use to subsequent academic studies. Each student is assigned a unique science project, typically based on an industry or non-profit identified...

Fundamental concepts and principles governing bonding and reactivity of coordination complexes: ligand field theory, symmetry, and point groups; frontier molecular orbital theory.Students will receive credit for only one of CHEM 2208 or 2224.Prerequisite(s): A minimum "C-" grade in CHEM 1120 and...

This organic chemistry course is intended for students in the biological sciences. Topics include properties of aromatic compounds, reactions and properties of alkenes, alkynes, cabonyl compounds, and carbohydrates. Not intended for students completing a chemistry or biochemistry major.Prerequisite...

Introduction to qualitative and quantitative chemical analytical techniques and statistical analysis of data.Prerequisite(s): A minimum "C-" grade in CHEM 1220 or equivalent. Prerequisites are only valid for three years.

Physical chemistry is fundamental to the understanding of biology on a molecular scale. Students learn spectroscopy as a tool for observing the properties of atoms and molecules, and the use of thermodynamics and kinetics to predict and control chemical reactions and changes of state that underlie...

A second-year level course in general organic chemistry. Topics include simple aliphatic and aromatic compounds including hydrocarbons, alkyl halides, organometallic compounds; and an introduction to reaction mechanisms, to stereochemistry and to the use of spectroscopy in organic chemistry...

A second-year level course in general organic chemistry. Topics include aromatic compounds, alcohols and ethers, carbonyl compounds, carbonylic acids, amines, and amino acids. Bio-organic systems may also be covered.Prerequisite(s): A minimum "C-" grade in CHEM 2316 or equivalent. Prerequisites are...

Students learn the principles of molecular modeling, the set of computational techniques employed to model or simulate the behaviour of molecules, from small compounds to large biomolecules. The major topics include optimization of molecular geometry, energy calculations, structural-property...
