Previous Title: Chemistry 209, Introductory Chemistry
Unit(s): 4
Class Hours: 48 Lecture, 48 Laboratory total
Prerequisite: Mathematics 080
This course prepares students for Biology and Chemistry 200 by exploring the basic concepts of matter such as: atomic structure, formulas, equation writing, nomenclature, gases, and kinetic theory. Properties of solutions and the mole concept in quantitative chemistry will be emphasized.
Previous Title: Chemistry 219, General Chemistry
Unit(s): 5
Class Hours: 48 Lecture, 96 Laboratory total
Prerequisite: Chemistry 100 or Chem 209 or a passing score on current chemistry placement test and Mathematics 080
This is the first semester of a year-long sequence covering the fundamental principles and concepts of chemistry and is intended for students studying physical science, life science, and engineering. The topics are to include, but not limited to, atomic structure, quantum theory, periodic properties, stoichiometry, oxidation-reduction, molecular structure and bonding, gas laws, states of matter, solutions, chemical kinetics and chemical equilibrium. This course is a requirement to earn a degree in the physical science, life science, and engineering majors.

Previous Title: Chemistry 249, Organic Chemistry I
Unit(s): 5
Class Hours: 48 Lecture, 96 Laboratory total
Prerequisite: Chemistry 200B or Chem 229
This course with Chemistry 200B meets the standards of the American Chemical Society for a year course in organic chemistry. The course is required for majors in chemistry, biological science, medicine, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, and pre-dental programs. May be required by other disciplines also. It is recommended that this course be immediately followed by Chemistry 280B.
Previous Title: Chemistry 259, Organic Chemistry II
Unit(s): 5
Class Hours: 48 Lecture, 96 Laboratory total
Prerequisite: Chemistry 280A
This course is the second semester of a year of organic chemistry (continuation of Chemistry 280A). It includes units on structure elucidation, aromatic compounds, carbonyl compounds, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, amines, and classes of biologically important compounds. More complex synthetic routes are explored. Laboratory work includes multi-step syntheses and unknown identification. Reaction mechanisms and use of spectroscopic techniques continue to be emphasized. This course is intended for science majors.
