COURSE DESCRIPTIONS<br />

CHMI 1006 General Chemistry I<br />

This course provides an introduction to the<br />

fundamental principles of chemistry. Topics<br />

include atomic and molecular structure,<br />

nuclear chemistry, stoichiometry, the<br />

periodic table and periodicity and the<br />

properties of solutions. Prerequisite: 4U in<br />

Chemistry or CHMI 1041 or permission of<br />

the Department. (LEC 3, TUT 1, LAB 2) (3 cr)<br />

CHMI 1007 General Chemistry II<br />

This is the second part of the introduction<br />

to the fundamental principles of chemistry.<br />

Topics include thermochemistry, chemical<br />

thermodynamics, kinetics, chemical<br />

equilibrium, acid-base chemistry, buffer<br />

solutions, electrochemistry and introductory<br />

organic chemistry. Prerequisite: CHMI<br />

1006 or CHMI 1041 (80%). (LEC 3, TUT 1,<br />

LAB 3) (3 cr)<br />

Chapter 4<br />

CHMI 2426 Organic Chemistry I<br />

This course is an introductory course in<br />

organic chemistry. Topics included are<br />

structure and bonding, nomenclature,<br />

stereochemistry, and an introduction to<br />

the chemistry of a few classes of organic<br />

compounds. Prerequisites: CHMI 1006/1007.<br />

(LEC 3, LAB 3, TUT 1) (3 cr)<br />

CHMI 2427 Organic Chemistry II<br />

This course includes a detailed investigation<br />

of the reactions of hydrocarbons and<br />

monofunctional organic compounds. The<br />

factors which affect these reactions will<br />

also be discussed. Prerequisite: CHMI 2426.<br />

(LEC 3, LAB 3, TUT 1) (3 cr)<br />
