CHEM 103 - Introductory Chemistry |
A one-semester introductory chemistry course focusing on the fundamental core concepts of inorganic chemistry. Topics include scientific measurements, atomic-molecular theory, properties of the elements, chemical bonding, intermolecular attractions, energy and matter, liquids, solids, and gases, solutions, basic types of chemical reactions, chemical equilibrium, acids and bases, and nuclear chemistry. These core concepts are explored and expanded upon during weekly laboratory sessions. Students are required to enroll in the corresponding laboratory (3 hours). Note: This course does not satisfy the Chemistry major requirement or the Chemistry minor requirement. Students wishing to pursue advanced study in biology, chemistry, engineering, food science, and the nutrition and dietetics concentration for the food and nutrition major should take CHEM 107 Principles of Chemistry and CHEM 108 Principles of Chemistry and Quantitative Analysis.
Corequisite: A 100-level course in mathematics or eligibility to enroll in MATH 180 Precalculus.
