5 units -- 3 units lecture/2 units lab 
Prerequisite: CHEM 100 or high school chemistry and MATH 120 or equivalent with C or better 

The principles of chemistry for students in science, engineering, medical and related professions are covered. Atomic structure, chemical bonding, stoichiometry, the periodic table, enthalpy, solutions, nuclear chemistry, and transition metal chemistry will be studied. Laboratory assignments include safety rules and procedures and the study of physical and chemical properties, analysis of samples and validation of scientific theories. 
 

5 units -- 3 units lecture/2 units lab
Prerequisite: CHEM 1A with C or better or equivalent 

This course is a continuation of CHEM 1A. Bonding, intermolecular forces, solutions, kinetics, equilibria, acids and bases, reactions, thermodynamics, oxidation-reduction and the chemistry of elements and compounds will be studied. Syllabus for fall semester 1997 Homework Assignments for fall semester 1997 
 

5 units -- 4 units lecture/1 unit lab 
Prerequisite: MATH 105 or Math 106 with a C or better or equivalent 

CHEM 2 covers basic chemical principles and serves as an introductory course required for allied science fields. This course will prepare a student who either has not had high school chemistry or whose previous chemistry course is outdated for CHEM 1A. 

5 units -- 4 units lectue/1 unit lab 
Prerequisite: MATH 105 or MATH 106 with a C or better or equivalent

An introduction of the principles of chemistry in the context of our natural and social world. The topics of general chemistry will be covered including atomic structure, bonding, the physical states of matter and chemical reactions and their control. Note: This program is open only to students who are accepted in the Honors program. See counseling staff for selection procedures. Syllabus for fall semester 1997

4units -- 3 units lecture/1 unit lab 
Prerequisite: MATH 105 or MATH 106 with a C or better or equivalent and Chem 2 with a C or better

A course in basic organic chemistry for allied science majors. This is an introductory survey of organic compounds and reactions and an introductory survey of the biological macromolecules including proteins, lipids, polysaccharides, hormones,  vitamins, and DNA/RNA

5 units -- 3 units lecture/2 units lab
Prerequisite: CHEM 1A

A survey of important classes of organic compounds with emphasis on materials of interest to students of the biological sciences, pre-professional programs and related areas. The laboratory work includes the fundamental techniques using both macro and micro scale equipment for the purification, synthesis and identification of organic compounds, while illustrating the basic chemistry of the functional groups. 

1-2 units 
Prerequisite: CHEM 1A
Grade: CR/NC option 

Advanced laboratory procedures involving analytical or organic chemistry. Work is approved and directed by a faculty member. Outside reading and a written report are required. Variable 1-2 units, 3-6 lab hours per week. 

4 units -- 4 units lecture 
Prerequisite: MATH 105 or MATH 106 with a C or better or equivalent
Grade: CR/NC option

A brief introduction to the principles of chemistry and the application of mathematics to chemistry.  CHEM 100 is intended to prepare students for General Chemistry (CHEM 1A) who did not take high school chemistry or whose prior chemistry is outdated.

3 units -- 3 units lecture 
Prerequisite: None 
Grade: CR/NC option

A survey for non-science majors covering the basic topics of physics, chemistry, geology and astronomy.  Topics include matter and energy, thermodynamics,  electricity and magnetisim, light, atomic structure, chemical change, organic chemistry, earth structure and composition, plate tectonics, the solar system and the stars.
