176 6. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF COURSES TECHNOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY.—This is a course of lectures, comprising a study of technological chemistry as illustrated in those industries having a chemical basis for their principal operations and processes. Much use is made of the journals. Winter term, M., W. P., at 10.10; spring term, M., W., F., at 11, half credit. Professor PARR. Required: Chemistry, 2, 3b. 7. PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY.—A course in physical chemistry, in- cluding thermo-chemistry, consisting mainly of laboratory work. It comprises determinations of vapor density, specific heat, depression of freezing point, elevation of boiling point, and calculation of molecular and atomic weights from the data thus obtained, and the use of calorimeter, polariscope, and other instruments, in determining such constants as serve in characterization or for quantitative estimation of chemical substances, or which serve as the basis of theoretical generalizations. Fall, winter, or spring term, full credit. Professor PALMER. Required: Chemistry 2, 5b; Physics 1, 3. 8. IRON AND STEEL ANALYSIS.—Methods for determination of all the constituents are studied, including both rapid and standard methods, especial attention being given to technical methods for determination of phosphorus and sulphur. Spring term, lecture, Th., at 11; laboratory, at 0, full credit. Professor PARR and Mr. ROSE. Required: Chemistry 5b. 9. ORGANIC CHEMISTRY.—The work of this course consists in the detailed discussion of the characteristics of several of the more typical and simple organic compounds, followed by the briefer consideration of most of the important classes of the derivatives of carbon. Bernthsen's Organic Chemistry is used as reference and text-book. The laboratory work includes the preparation of organic compounds in accordance with the directions given in Gatterman's Practical Methods of Organic Chemistry, and the ultimate analysis of the finished products. Winter and spring terms, at 1.1$, full credit. Professor PALMER and Mr. ROSE. Required: Chemistry 2, 5a. 10. SANITARY ANALYSIS.—One term is devoted to the chemical examination of potable and mineral waters. Detection and estimation of some of the most important poisons, organic and inorganic. Fall term, at 10, one credit. Professor PALMER and Mr. ROSE. Required: Chemistry 5a.
