CHEM 104 Living in an Organic World

Organic Chemistry is fundamental to life on Planet Earth. Fuel, food, cosmetics, clothing, plants, animals, pharmaceuticals, drugs, alcohol, and the basic biological processes of life itself, from reproduction to birth, and every day thereafter, are all aspects of organic chemistry. After an introduction to the structural fundamentals and diversity of organic molecules, this course will focus on the role organic chemistry plays in our daily lives and our continued existence as carbon-based life forms.
