|
CHEM145 is a special section of CHEM143. Students will attend the three weekly lectures of CHEM143. In addition, students will participate in a once-a-week review session with special topics included. An introduction to chemistry intended for motivated students with a solid high school chemistry background and some exposure to calculus, this course will emphasize the fundamental principles of chemistry and is recommended for students interested in pursuing majors in science or mathematics. It will cover the properties of gases, solids, liquids, and solutions; concepts of equilibrium, thermodynamics, and kinetics. This course provides the best basic foundation for further study of chemistry and is strongly recommended for chemistry and MB&B majors. CHEM145, with CHEM144, satisfies premedical general chemistry requirements. |
