Institution:

Lincoln University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Chemistry

Description:

CHE 121 is a continuation of CHE 120 and an introductory course which serves as an elective for Health Sciences Majors and other health-related professions. It is a one-semester course that will discuss fundamental principles of General Chemistry basic to the understanding of the health related sciences. The course will cover, in depth, concepts covered in CHE 120, which include the following: Principles of atomic structure, periodicity, chemical bonding, molecular structure, stoichiometry, states of matter, thermodynamics, acids and bases, concentration units, kinetics, equilibria, nuclear chemistry, and electrochemistry. The concepts will be covered in the context and application of Organic and Biological Chemistry. In addition, the fundamentals of organic nomenclature and a survey of the physical, chemical and biological properties of the main organic functional groups will be covered. Additionally, fundamental Organic Chemistry reaction mechanisms will be discussed. Finally, fundamental Biochemistry concepts such as protein structure/function, DNA/RNA structure/function, and basic biological pathways will be covered.
