CHMT (Chemical Technology)
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 spec troscopy. The
course concludes with a variety of special methods and student projects.
(Prerequisite: CHMT 2320 or its equivalent) Lecture: 4 hours, Lab: 8 hours
CHMT 8000 � Chemical Technology IA - 3
Credits
This course is designed to be the chemistry requirement for the
Biotechnology Certificate Program at CCRI. The goal of this course is
two-fold. First, it will provide the students with hands-on experience
with some of the laboratory techniques and instrumentation they will
encounter in the real world workforce. Secondly, it provides the
students with the theory they need to understand the principles behind
these techniques and build a basic chemical information background they
will need for other science courses they will be taking for this
certificate.
