Part I of the course (21:160:109) may be taken without enrolling in 21:160:101. See http://genchem.rutgers.edu for more information. Lab. 3 hrs. For laboratory science requirement.
21:160:113-114 General Chemistry Laboratory (1,1) General chemistry laboratory for science majors. Emphasis on some of the principles of quantitative and qualitative chemical analysis. See http://genchem.rutgers.edu for more information. It is recommended that the labs be taken concurrently with the lecture course (21:160:115-116). Lab. 4 hrs. Pre- or corequisites: 21:160:115-116.
21:160:115-116 General Chemistry (4,4) Introduction to the fundamental principles of chemistry. Lec. 4 hrs., rec. 1 hr. Prerequisites: One year of high school chemistry and 21:640:113 for 115, and 21:640:114 for 116.
21:160:207 Inorganic Chemistry I (3) Introduction to fundamental concepts of inorganic chemistry: bonding, symmetry, group theory, spectroscopy, and elementary main group chemistry. Prerequisites: 21:160:116 and 21:640:135.
21:160:227 Experimental Analytical Chemistry (3) A course for students requiring additional training in analytical techniques; analyze unknowns chosen to illustrate basic techniques and some newer instrumental methods. Lec. 1 hr., lab. 6 hrs. Prerequisites: 21:160:113-114, 115-116.
21:160:331 Organic Chemistry Laboratory (2) Introduction to the techniques and the safety precautions of practical organic chemistry; the synthesis, isolation, purification, and behavior of compounds representing important classes. Lab. 4 hrs., lec. 1 hr. Prerequisites: 21:160:113-114, 115-116, 335. Pre- or corequisite: 21:160:336.
21:160:335-336 Organic Chemistry (1,2) Study of carbon compounds with emphasis on the principal classes of aliphatic and aromatic compounds; molecules and systems of biological interest. Prerequisites: 21:160:115-116.
21:160:340 Physical Chemistry for the Life Sciences (3) Introduction to physical chemical concepts as applied to life sciences; thermodynamics, kinetics, solutions of electrolytes, and electrochemistry. Prerequisites: 21:160:115-116 and 21:640:135.
21:160:345,346 Physical Chemistry (12) The gaseous, liquid, and solid states: phase equilibria, properties of solution, fugacity and activity, free energy changes of chemical reactions, and surface and colloid chemistry; atomic and molecular structure, crystal chemistry, the chemical bond, chemical kinetics, and statistical thermodynamics. Prerequisites: 21:160:116, 207; 21:640:136; and 21:750:203-204 or 213-214.
