CHE 305 Applied Physical Chemistry

Pre- or corequisites: CHE 310 (with a grade of "C" or better), MAT 260, PHY 201. An introduction to principles and applications of physical chemistry. Topics include states and properties of matter, thermodynamics and its application to chemical and biochemical systems, phase and chemical equilibrium, electrochemistry and chemical kinetics. Lecture only.

Credit Hours: 3

CHE 310 Analytical Chemistry

An advanced treatment of chemical equilibrium and its application to the quantitative analysis of materials. Emphasizes gravimetric, volumetric, spectrophotometric and potentiometric methods of analysis. May be used toward a minor in chemistry. Lecture and laboratory.

Credit Hours: 4

Prerequisites

CHE 154, CHE 155L (both with a grade of "C" or better).

CHE 320 Biochemistry

A study of the chemical properties and biological functions of the atoms, molecules, macromolecules and macromolecular complexes that contribute to living systems. Topics include pH; structure and function of carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids; enzyme kinetics; and the major metabolic cycles and their cellular control processes. May be used toward a minor in chemistry. Lecture only.
