Organic Analysis with CHEM 281 & CHEM 371

CSIE 377: Organic Analysis
This seminar course will explore relationships between organic chemistry and quantitative analysis, focusing on thermodynamic properties such as pH and pKa, and structures and functions of relevant organic molecules such as indicators for titrations and analytes. Students also explore special topics related to each course that are not typically covered in CHEM 371 or CHEM 281. These will focus on the environmental impact of chemistry on our society while giving students a better understanding of what professional analytical and organic chemists actually do in their jobs.

CHEM 281 - Quantitative Analysis
A lecture and laboratory course treating instrumental, gravimetric, and volumetric analysis, and equilibrium. Lecture: two hours per week. Laboratory: six hours per week.

CHEM 371 - Organic Chemistry I
The first semester of a two-semester sequence covering the general principles of organic chemistry for students specializing in science and those preparing for dentistry or medicine. Lecture: three hours per week. Credit cannot be earned in both CHEM270 and CHEM371.
