202160.CHEM105.02
Introduction to Chemical Principles (CHEM 105) is a course that provides an introduction to chemistry in general, and to the chemistry of living things in particular. It is directed toward students with career goals in nursing, allied health, biological sciences, public health, and other disciplines in which understanding the fundamentals of biological chemistry are valuable. The course introduces elements, atoms, the periodic table, and the quantitative nature of chemistry. It also individually highlights the nature of ionic and molecular compounds. Discussion is made on chemical reactions and their stoichiometry, energies, rates, and equilibria. Other topics essential to applied chemistry that are considered include gases, liquids, solids, solutions, acids and bases, as well as nuclear chemistry.

202160.CHEM315.01
CHEM 315 (3-3-0) Physical Chemistry for Life Sciences: This course develop the basic principles of physical chemistry in a one-semester calculus based course for and applied to life sciences. The course is directed to students majoring in biology, biochemistry, pre-medical, pre-pharmacy, and students in general. The particular areas covered include thermodynamics, chemical kinetics and quantum mechanics. The course will focus in principles and their application to the fundamental problems of biological sciences. Pre-requisites: A course grade of “C” or higher in PHYS 126 and PHYS 126L and MATH 241.

202160.CHEM313.01
CHEM 313 – 01: This is the first of two-semester sequence course to present the fundamentals of physical chemistry from the macroscopic point of view. Without losing rigorousness, the essential ideas of physical chemistry will be introduced hopefully in a way that would be interesting, comprehensible and enjoyable to students with a background of one year of college calculus and physics. The lectures in this class will cover thermodynamics, kinetics and chemical change.
