Principles of chemistry and the properties of matter explained in terms of modern chemical theory with emphasis on topics of general interest to the engineer. Topics include atomic structure, chemical bonding, solids, liquids, gases, acids and bases, thermodynamics, kinetics, polymer chemistry and materials science. This is an accelerated course requiring excellent preparation in math and science and is a terminal course intended only for those engineering students who do not plan to take additional courses in chemistry. Offered Spring semester. Prerequisite: MATH 109 or higher, or equivalent of MATH 113, and ENGR 150 or Permission of Instructor. NOTE: Students who receive credit for CHEM 109 may not receive credit for CHEM 100, 101, 111 or 115. This course is not equivalent to CHEM 111, CHEM 112 or CHEM 115 and will not substitute for them.
