CH 201 Chemistry For Engineering Majors I
The first of a two-term sequence of selected chemistry topics for pre-engineering students. Designed specifically to provide engineering majors a fundamental understanding of chemical reactions and scientific measurement. This course will introduce students to principles, laws and equations that govern our understanding of chemical combination.

Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
Differentiate the historical developments leading to the development of the atomic theory and the Periodic Table. Solve engineering related scientific problems with quantitative methods using dimensional analysis and/or algebra regarding unit conversions, stoichiometry, gas laws, and thermochemistry. Apply chemical principles associated with chemical and physical changes and properties of matter, nomenclature, chemical reactions, thermochemistry, the kinetic theory of a gas, and quantum theory. Work safely in a laboratory environment while observing and accurately recording measurements related to chemical phenomena.
