|
| Chm 107 Chemistry In Society |
|
| Lecture: 3 hrs. Lab: 3 hrs. Credit: 4 hrs. |
|
| Chemical principles are studied and applied to subjects of interest to citizens in our society. Topics may include air and water pollution, energy generation, nuclear power, food production and preservation, industrial chemistry, chemotherapy and drugs, development and production of consumer products, and chemical toxins and their hazards. The course addresses the National Science Standards for teachers of grades K through 8 in the area of chemistry. This course fulfills the science requirement for non-science majors. Prescience and nursing majors should take CHM 103. The course cannot be used towards the major requirement for the Math-Science AS degree. |
