353-354-355. Physical Chemistry Laboratory.

2:30-5:30, T. Th.

Chemistry 300-1-2 and 315-16-17 prerequisite.

Some knowledge of the calculus is required and previous training in Physics
is desirable. This course treats of such topics as the gas laws, kinetic theory of
gases, the properties of dilute solutions, molecular weights, mass action, reaction
velocities, electrolysis and electromotive force, the phase rule, etc. Emphasis is
placed upon the application of physico-chemical laws in the solution of chemical
problems. The laboratory work consists of a course in physico-chemical measurements.
Lecture and Recitation 3 hours per week, 6 hours laboratory. (Fall,
Winter, Spring.)
