Fall 2007 Cumulative Outline

(This will slide around abit as the semester proceeds to accommodate shifts in emphasis. After each lecture, the "Lecture X" hyperlink will connect to that lecture's slide collection. Previews may be found via the "Main Index" under "Preview". When lecture material has corresponding text material, the Chapter and possible Section are indicated in [green]. Be aware that parts of the outline may have no corresponding reading in the text. (For example, in Lecture 2, Cannizzaro's Stochiometric Analyses does not get mentioned in the reading.)
