No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1983–84 to 1989–90 (before that, 1974–75 to 1980–81 used the number for Electricity and Magnetism); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

Concepts of electronic structure, bonding: shapes of molecules, especially in covalent molecules; reactivity, energetics, chemical behaviour as a consequence. Acidity, basicity and buffer solutions. Organic Chemistry ~ systems of nomenclature, functionality and common relations. Important systems of natural and synthetic polymers and biomolecules.

As printed in the 1983–84 to 1989–90 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
