CHEM 101 - General Chemistry I

Lecture - Lab - Credit Hours: 4-3-5
IAI Code: P1 902L, CHM 911
This course is the first semester of a two-semester sequence of general chemistry intended for students in chemistry, physics, biology, engineering, pre-dentistry, pre-medicine, pre-pharmacy, pre-veterinary medicine, or anyone planning to take two years of chemistry. This course covers the principles of chemistry which serve as an organizing basis for all chemistry: atomic theory, atomic and molecular structure, chemical bonding, chemical reaction, stoichiometry, thermochemistry, gases, liquids, solids, solutions, and colligative properties. The laboratory complements these topics. Students who are pregnant or may become pregnant during the course of the semester are strongly advised to consult their doctor before enrolling in this course.Prerequisite: One year of high school chemistry or minimum grade “C” in CHEM 100 ; and placement into ENG 101 , or minimum grade “C” ENG 021 and ENG 099 , or in ENG 096 ; and appropriate placement score or minimum grade “C” in MATH 098 .
