New Chemistry Department Course!

CHEM 1400: Foundations in Chemical Principles 

This course has been specifically designed to serve as a bridge between high school chemistry and CHEM 1410 for those students who may have a limited background in high school chemistry (i.e. only one year of chemistry or no AP Chemistry). 

Topics include structure of the atom, periodic table and trends, covalent and ionic bonding, the mole, solutions and liquids, chemical reactions and gases. The course is intended for students who intend to enroll in CHEM 1410 in the summer or the fall of 2013.  

(CHEM 1400 is not on the schedule of classes for Spring 2013 yet, but will be offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays either from 4:00 - 5:15p)

Enrollment will be by instructor permission only.  Please feel free to contact Kimberley Bassett, the instructor, with general questions, and to inquire about being added to the course roster. She can be reached at kcb6j@virginia.edu
