An introductory chemistry course for liberal arts students who may have no previous chemistry knowledge. Principles of chemistry will be discussed in the context of topics that may vary by quarter. Contact the Chemistry Department for the specific topic (was CHEM 100). Prerequisite: Placement into both ENGL& 101 (was ENGL 105) and MATH 090.
A general introduction to chemistry with an emphasis on applications of chemistry in the health and life sciences. Intended for students in allied health fields, such as nursing and dental hygiene (was CHEM 101). Prerequisite: Placement into both MATH 090 and ENGL& 101 (was ENGL 105).
Structure, properties and reactions of organic and biomolecules, and biochemical processes. Not recommended for students continuing with chemistry beyond 131 (was CHEM 102). Prerequisite: CHEM& 121 (was CHEM 101) and placement into ENGL& 101 (was ENGL 105).
A preparation for the CHEM& 141 sequence for students who have not had high school chemistry. Emphasis on quantitative reasoning and problem solving techniques (was CHEM 110). Prerequisite: MATH 090 with a grade of 2.0 or higher.
For science and engineering majors who plan to take a year or more of chemistry. Measurement, stoichiometry, atomic structure, periodicity. Laboratory emphasizes quantitative techniques (was CHEM 131). Prerequisite: 1. MATH& 141 (was MATH 131) with a grade of at least 2.0, or concurrent enrollment. 2. Placement into ENGL& 101. 3.
