CHEM 371 - Energetics of Chemical Reactions
3 units (fi 6)(FIRST, 3-0-3)
A study of the implications of the laws of thermodynamics for transformations of matter including phase changes, chemical reactions, and biological processes. Topics include: thermochemistry; entropy change and spontaneity of processes; activity and chemical potential; chemical and phase equilibria; properties of solutions; simple one- and two-component phase diagrams. The conceptual development of thermodynamic principles from both macroscopic and molecular levels, and the application of these principles to systems of interest to chemists, biochemists, and engineers will be emphasized. Note: This course may not be taken for credit if credit has already been received in CHEM 271. Prerequisites: CHEM 102 or 105; MATH 101 or 115 or 136 or 146 or 156. Engineering students who take this course will receive 4.5 units.

CHEM 282 - Atomic and Molecular Structure
3 units (fi 6)(SECOND, 3-0-4)
An introduction to the quantum view of nature with applications to atomic and molecular structure. Methods to describe the quantum world are introduced, used to describe the electronic structure of simple model systems, and applied to the hydrogen atom, many-electron atoms, simple diatomic molecules, and polyatomic molecules. The laboratory portion of the course consists of applications enriching and illustrating the lecture material, and incorporates the use of computers in predicting experimental results. Prerequisites: CHEM 102 or 105; one 200-level CHEM course; MATH 115 or 136 or 146 or 156; MATH 125; PHYS 124 or 144.
