CHE 252 - Organic Chemistry II and Lab4
This course is a continuation of CHE 251. Topics include aromaticity and aromatic reactions. Nomenclature, structure, reactions, mechanisms and physical properties are studied for the following hydrocarbon derivatives: alcohols, ethers, carbonyl compounds, acids, amines, and macromolecules. The laboratory experience uses instrumentation for the structural analysis of molecules.
Learning Outcomes:
- Use the vocabulary and models of chemistry - both language and mathematical, to explain concepts appropriate to the course content.
- Explain the structure and reactions of organic molecules base on modern bonding theories.
- Analyze composition and structure of organic molecules with the aid of instrumental analysis.
- Communicate the concepts and results of experiments through effective writing and oral communication skills.
- Utilize safe and course-appropriate laboratory techniques.
- Discuss the phenomenon of toxicity as it relates to organic molecules and the responsibility of science and health science majors to contribute to the green chemistry global initiative.
Prerequisite(s): Completion of CHE 251 with a grade of C or better. General Education Elective(s): Science
