CHEMISTRY 185 and application explained. A series of lantern slides illustrating actual plants in operation together with specimens of furnace material and products are used in illustration. Much use is made of journals, annuals, and monographs setting forth the best practice. / . ; M., IV., F.; 3; (3). 7. Professor PARS. course in physical chemistry, Required: Chemistry 5a. PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY.—A including thermo-chemistry, consisting mainly of laboratory work. It comprises determinations of vapor density, specific heat, depression of freezing point, elevation of boiling point, electrical conductivity, etc., 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 quantitaive estimation of chemical substances, or which serve as the basis of theoretical generalizations. /. or II.; arrange time; (3, 5, or 10). 8. Professor PALMER. Required: Chemistry 2, 5a; Physics 1, 3. IRON AND STEEL ANALYSIS.—Analyses are made of all the con- stituents by both rapid or technical and standard methods. The course also includes the analysis of furnace slags and a study of the methods for decomposing ores and refractory products. / / . ; daily; arrange time; (5). Professor PARR. Required: Chemistry 5a. 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. Remsen's Organic Chemistry is used as a text-book, and Richter's Organic Chemistry as a reference book. Must be accompanied by either 9a, 9b, or 9c. and Mr. ROSE. 9a. / / . ; M., W., F.; 7; (3).

ORGANIC SYNTHESIS.—Laboratory work for students of the chemical course, consisting of the preparation of the typical organic compounds. / / . ; arrange time; (2). Professor PALMER and Mr. ROSE. 9b. ORGANIC ANALYSIS.—Laboratory work for students of the chemical course, consisting of either ultimate organic analysis or proximate organic analysis, or both. / . ; Laboratory, 9 or 15 periods a week; arrange time; (3 or 5).
