CHE 104 General Chemistry II

71/2 hours: 3 hours lecture, 11/2 hours recitation, 3 hours laboratory 

This is the second half of beginning chemistry. It builds on the basic properties and reactions of the elements and the compounds learned in the first semester of general chemistry and ends with an introduction to organic chemistry. The laboratory stresses principles of qualitative and semi-quantitative experimentation and fosters competence in the skills needed to work safely and effectively in a scientific laboratory. This course is designed for students with a science background and for Forensic Science and Fire Science majors. Regents level high school chemistry is desired.
