CHEM 101-0 Sec. 23
General Chemistry
CAESAR Class Number: 40024
3 weeks, EVAN, 6/22 - 7/10
MTuWThF 9am - noon
Additional days: MW 1-4:50pm (lab)
Frederick Northrup and Eberhard Zwergel
This course will be held in Tech Institute room LR3.

The first in a three-course sequence in college-level chemistry for science majors, serving as preparation for more advanced chemistry courses such as organic chemistry and physical chemistry and as the general chemistry preparation required for professional schools. Because of the intensive nature of these courses, it is recommended that students not register concurrently for other courses. Tuition is billed on a per-course basis. Descriptive chemistry, elements, and compounds; basic chemical calculations, stoichiometry, and solution concentration; gas laws. Prerequisite: one year of high school chemistry and algebra or consent of instructor. This course counts toward the Weinberg College natural sciences distribution requirement, Area I. SCS students should register for CHEM 101-CN. Due to limited space in chemistry courses during Summer Session, priority is given to visiting, degree-seeking, and certificate (Professional Health Careers) students. SCS students-at-large may register starting on June 5 if space is available.

CHEM 102-0 Sec. 23
General Inorganic Chemistry
CAESAR Class Number: 40028
3 weeks, EVAN, 7/13 - 7/31
