Chemical Technology (CHMT)
|
CHMT 1120 – Chemical Technology I - 6 Credits
An introduction to basic concepts in chemistry. The chemical
properties, identification and separation of substances, atomic and molecular structure,
elements and compounds, liquids and solutions; the periodic table and the naming
of inorganic compounds are studied. The student is instructed in the use of a variety
of instruments including the gas chromatograph, manometers, analytical balances
and visible spectrophotometers. Lecture: 2 hours, Lab: 8 hours
CHMT 1220 – Chemical Technology II - 6 Credits
A continuation of Chemical Technology I. The areas covered include
acid-base chemistry, equilibrium, qualitative and quantitative analysis. (Prerequisite:
CHMT 1120 or its equivalent) Lecture: 2 hours, Lab: 8 hours
CHMT 2320 – Chemical Technology III - 10 Credits
A continuation of Chemical Technology II. The areas covered include
an introduction to organic chemistry via a study of organic functional groups, classification
of organic compounds using wet and instrumental methods and organic reactions. Infrared
spectrophotometry, separation methods, including gas chromotography and high pressure
liquid chromotography are stressed. (Prerequisite: CHMT 1220 or its equivalent)
Lecture: 4 hours, Lab: 12 hours
CHMT 2420 – Chemical Technology IV - 8 Credits
A continuation of Chemical Technology III. Topics covered include
the nature of reversible processes, equilibrium constants, solute and solvent systems
and the kinetics of chemical reactions. Instrumental methods include atomic absorption,
emission spectroscopy, ultraviolet and NMR spectroscopy. The course concludes with
a variety of special methods and student projects. (Prerequisite: CHMT 2320 or its
equivalent) Lecture: 4 hours, Lab: 8 hours
