Course Numbering Information:
Courses at SLCC are identified by an alphabetic prefix (two to four letters) followed by a four-digit number. Numbers beginning with a “1” generally indicate a course designed primarily for freshmen (such as ENGL 1010); numbers beginning with a “2” generally indicate courses designed primarily for sophomores (such as MATH 2010); numbers beginning with a “0” generally indicate preparatory courses that are non-transferable (such as MATH 0950).

Chemistry
	CHEM 1010 - Intro to Chemistry (PS) Credits: 3 This course is designed for students who want to obtain a basic understanding of chemistry. No previous knowledge in chemistry is needed. A foundation of basic chemical knowledge is provided for students who need to prepare for further study in chemistry as well as for students who only want an introductory survey course. Concepts covered include general chemistry principles such as chemical measurements, formulas, reactions, equations, solutions, states of matter, atomic structure and nomenclature. Quantitative problem solving skills are developed and include the application of significant figures, dimensional analysis, stoichiometry, and ideal gas law calculations. The successful student will attain a modern scientific perspective on the world around them as well as new problem solving skills that can be readily applied throughout their daily lives.
