| CHEM 1560 |
Introduction to General Chemistry
A one-semester introduction to fundamental topics in general chemistry, both qualitative and quantitative, with laboratory. CHEM 1560 prepares students for CHEM 1570; CHEM 1560 is not recommended for premedical or preveterinary students. Students planning to take CHEM 2080 should be enrolled in CHEM 2070 rather than CHEM 1560. Catalog Distribution: (PBS-AS, PHS-AS) Full details for CHEM 1560 - Introduction to General Chemistry |
