Chemistry 1. [Bird].

This class meets three times a week for lectures and works six
hours a week in the laboratory. It studies the fundamental principles
of General Chemistry—Inorganic, Organic, and Physical; but devotes
most of the time to the significant phenomena of Inorganic Chemistry.
At appropriate places the foundation of Analytical Chemistry are
taught and such special exercises are given as will emphasize the
more important chemical properties of the structural materials of
Engineering, fuels, and so on. No previous study of Chemistry is
demanded; but to students, who have received preliminary instruction
in a chemical laboratory, the exercises assigned are of a somewhat
more advanced type.
