CHM 150 - Honors Chemistry I

(4/4)

Prerequisites: High school chemistry or equivalent (CHM 100 or CHM 110 at GRCC) and high school algebra and trigonometry (MA 107 and MA 108 at GRCC) – CHM 150 is intended for students majoring in science or engineering who have excellent backgrounds in the theory and practice (lab) of high school chemistry. This course will help students gain a more in-depth understanding of the fundamental concepts in first semester general chemistry. Emphasis will be placed on topics such as atomic and molecular structure, chemical bonding, intermolecular forces, phases of matter, phase changes, solutions, stoichiometry, and thermodynamics. The laboratory (CHM 151) is designed to introduce and reinforce lecture topics with an emphasis on quantitative methods. This course meets only in the Fall semesters and consists of 4 hours of lecture. CM 113
