CHEM 141 - Field & Laboratory Methods for Environmental Chemistry

Type of Course: Lecture, Laboratory, Field Trips
This course will examine the applications of laboratory and field-sampling techniques to important issues in environmental chemistry.  Fundamental environmental chemistry concepts, such as equilibrium theory and pollutant transport, will be introduced before field sampling is done according to EPA procedures.  Laboratory analysis of the samples will emphasize an understanding of modern chemical analysis techniques and the limitations of each method.

Prerequisites: Two semesters of a sicence course with laboratory component.
