GENERAL LIST OF SUBJECTS. CHEMISTRY.

IOI

General and Experimental Chemistry.—This course is intended to serve as an introduction to the subject of chemistry, and is directed chiefly to the fundamental and general principles of the science. The work of the term consists of demonstrations, recitations upon the subject matter of the lectures and upon text book lessons, and of practice in the laboratory. The laboratory work, comprising a series of experiments illustrative of chemical principles and their applications, and involving a consideration of the properties of some of the more important elements and their compounds, serves in part as a preparation for the work of the class room. Remseris Introduction to Chemistry. Fall term, full study. Professor PALMER and Mr. 2. Descriptive Inorganic Chemistry.—This course is required of all chemical students. It is mainly devoted to a study of the metallic elements, their classification, compounds, and chemical properties. The work is from lectures and assigned text (no laboratory work). Three hours per week. Remsen's Advanced Course. Winter and spring terms, half study. Professor PARR. Required: Chemistry i. 3a. Qualitative Analysis.—This course includes a study of salts, their formation, solubilities, chemical reactions, etc. The periodic classification of the elements is made the basis for developing the principles of analysis. The work in the laboratory, after illustrating those principles, is occupied with the determination of base and acid constituents of a given number of unknown substances. Winter term, laboratory work 2 hours daily, and lectures 3 hours per week, full study. Professor PARR. Required: Chemistry 1. 3b. Qualitative Analysis, continued with more complex Substances.— A comparative study of methods, difficult separations, problems in synthesis, etc. Spring term, laboratory work 3 hours daily, full study.

Professor PARR.

Required: Chemistry 1, 2. 4. Elements of Organic Chemistry.—A course in organic chemistry, provided more especially for students who are not making a specialty of chemistry. The instruction is directed mainly to the consideration of the general characteristics and the mutual relations of some of the most important classes of carbon compounds, and the
