VTTK 1925 - Applied Principles of Chemistry for Veterinary Technology Credits: 2
This is a one-semester lecture only course. This course introduces students to terminology, basic facts and fundamental concepts of chemistry, and relates this information to the biological processes encountered in veterinary medicine. This course begins with introductory topics which include matter and its physical states, atomic structure, the periodic table, chemical bonding, chemical reactions, and inorganic nomenclature. After the initial introductory material, the course covers more advanced concepts and clinical applications including solution chemistry (concentrations and tonicity), gas laws, and acid-base chemistry (pH, buffers, and electrolytes).
Pre/Corequisite: VTTK 1500 must be complete with a grade of C or better; or VTTK 1500 must be taken at the same time as this course.
