CHE2012 SpTp: Aquatic Chemistry

Water makes up 71% of the Earth’s surface. This course provides students with the opportunity to have first-hand interactions with the chemical processes that take place around then in aqueous (water-based) systems. Topics covered include: 1) the process and types of chemical reactions involved in water treatment and purification, 2) how pH (acid-base chemistry) can be applied to everything from pool chemistry to beer brewing, 3) water quality measurements involved in environmental chemistry. This will be an experiential course with hands on field trips to: 1) a water treatment facility, 2) a water park or brewery and 3) a natural water source. Credits: 4
