Students taking courses in Chemistry are required to pay for each course
a laboratory fee of $10, and to make a special deposit of $5 to cover breakage
of apparatus.
For Undergraduates and Graduates.
Chemistry C1: Physical Chemistry: Chemistry B1 and Analytical Chemistry
B1 prerequisite.—Some knowledge of the calculus is required, and previous
work in physics is desirable. This course will treat such topics as the
gas laws, kinetic theory of gases, the properties of dilute solutions, molecular
weights, mass action, reaction velocity, electrolysis and electromotive force,
the phase rule, etc. The laboratory work will consist of a thorough course in
electromotive force, etc.—Hours by appointment. Chemical Laboratory.
Adjunct Professor Freas.
Chemistry C2: Advanced Organic Chemistry: Chemistry B1 and B2
prerequisite.—The lectures will deal intimately with selected topics in organic
chemistry. Reading from the scientific journals and reference books will be
assigned. Laboratory work will consist of the more difficult organic preparations,
partially adapted to the topics under discussion, special attention being
given to quantitative study of the reactions.—Hours by appointment. Chemical
Laboratory. Adjunct Professor Venable.
For Graduates.
Chemistry D1: Advanced Inorganic Chemistry: Chemistry B1, C1 and
Analytical Chemistry C1 prerequisite.—Designed primarily for candidates for
the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The lectures deal with the fundamental
theories and laws of chemical action. Parallel reading in the history of chemistry
and classic researches are required. In the laboratory the study of chemical
reactions is taken up in an advanced way, and when the student has shown
proper fitness he undertakes work upon some special problem in inorganic chemistry.—Hours
by appointment. Professor Bird.
Chemistry D2: Advanced Physical Chemistry: Chemistry B1, C1 and
Analytical Chemistry C1 prerequisite.—This course will be given only as occasion
demands, and the nature of the work will be arranged for the individual
student. It is intended for those seeking the degree of Doctor of Philosophy
who elect to do work in physical chemistry.—Hours by appointment. Adjunct
Professor Freas.
The Chemical Journal Club meets every Thursday, 10.30-11.30, for the
critical review and discussion of various topics of interest in current chemical
literature, and of such chemical researches as may be in progress in the University.
All instructors and advanced students in chemistry are expected to
participate in these meetings and to take part in the discussions. The privileges
of the club are extended to all persons in the University or in the vicinity
of Charlottesville who are interested in the progress of chemistry.
