CH106 Chemical Principles II
Prof. Steven Frey
Prof. Michelle Frey

The honors section of CH106 is a companion to CH105H and offers highly motivated students with strong chemistry backgrounds the continued opportunity to study fundamental concepts of chemistry in greater depth and breadth. Topics will include equilibria, acids and bases, electrochemistry, kinetics, and main group and transition metal chemistry. The lecture material will be applied in the lab to the study of inorganic elements, quantitive chemistry, and qualitative analysis. Prerequisite: CH105H or CH105 and permission of the instructor. Three hours of lecture-discussion and three hours of lab a week.

CH107
Intensive Chemistry
Prof. Vasantha Narasimhan

In depth coverage of the fundamental concepts of chemistry including such topics as structure-property relationships, chemical kinetics and equilibria. An emphasis will be placed on active student participation and class discussion of course material. In addition, as an honors project, students will conduct library research on a current topic in chemistry and prepare an in-depth written report in the format of a scientific review paper. Laboratory experiments will emphasize modern research techniques and instrumentation and their application to exploratory lab projects designated as honors projects. Training in scientific writing will be an integral part of the laboratory experience. Prerequisites: two years of high school chemistry and QR1. Three hours of lecture-discussion and three hours of laboratory a week. Fulfills part of laboratory science requirement; qualifies as nature-B [lab] course for breadth requirement; also fulfills QR2 requirement.
