CHEMISTRY 193 7. (a) PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY.—A course in physical 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. (b) Thermochemistry, including use of the bomb calorimeter. (c) Use of Spectroscope and polariscope for determination of constants and for quantitative analysis. /. or II.; arrange time; (3, 5, or 10). Professor PALMER and Mr. FRAPRIE. Required: 8. Chemistry 2, 5a; Physics I, 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; (3). 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. / / . ; M., IV., F.; 7; (3). Professor PALMER and Mr. ROSE. Required: Chemistry 2, 5a. 9a. ORGANIC SYNTHESIS.—Laboratory work for students of the chemical course, consisting of the preparation of the typical organic compounds. II.; arrange time; (z). 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). Professor PALMER and Mr. ROSE. 9c. Laboratory work in organic chemistry for students of the medical preparatory course. A few typical organic compounds are prepared, but the work consists mainly in a study of the chemical reactions and transformations of such organic substances as are especially involved in processes of nutrition or are used in medical practice. / / . ; Laboratory, 6 or IS periods a week; arrange time; (2 or 5). Professor PALMER and Mr. ROSE. 10. SANITARY ANALYSIS.—The work consists in the examination
