Course Overview
CHEM 120N—Introduction to General, Organic & Biological Chemistry—is Chamberlain’s prerequisite chemistry course for nursing students. It’s a survey course that covers three full semesters of traditional chemistry content (general chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry) compressed into one 8-week session.
The course uses Edapt for content delivery and virtual lab simulations. You’ll work through atomic structure, chemical bonding, reactions, organic compounds, and the biochemistry of living systems—all framed around nursing applications like medication interactions and metabolic processes.

Leads To
Pharmacology (NR-293)
The challenge isn’t any single concept—it’s the volume. You’re covering atomic theory, chemical equations, molecular geometry, organic functional groups, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids in 8 weeks. Students who struggled with chemistry in high school find Chamberlain’s pace overwhelming.
Why CHEM 120N Matters for Your Nursing Career
This isn’t just another box to check. Chemistry is the foundation for pharmacology—and pharmacology is the foundation for safe medication administration. Every drug you give your patients interacts with their body chemistry.
Drug Mechanisms
Why does aspirin reduce inflammation? How do beta-blockers slow the heart? Understanding organic chemistry and biochemistry helps you understand how medications actually work—not just what they do.
Drug Interactions
Why can’t this patient take grapefruit juice with their statin? Chemistry explains how substances interact in the body—critical knowledge for preventing adverse reactions.
Lab Value Interpretation
pH, electrolytes, blood gases—these aren’t just numbers. Chemistry helps you understand what abnormal values mean and why they matter for patient care.
IV Compatibility
Why can’t you mix certain IV medications? Acid-base chemistry and solubility rules determine what’s safe to combine—information that can prevent patient harm.
CHEM 120N feeds directly into NR-293 Pharmacology. Struggle here, and pharmacology becomes even harder. Fail to understand drug mechanisms, and you’re memorizing without comprehension—a dangerous approach when patient safety is on the line.
Topics Covered
CHEM 120N spans three traditional chemistry disciplines. Here’s what you’ll encounter:
Weeks 1-3: General Chemistry
Topics: Atomic structure, periodic table trends, chemical bonding (ionic, covalent, metallic), molecular geometry, chemical equations, balancing reactions, stoichiometry, solutions, concentration calculations, acids and bases, pH
Calculations you’ll do: Molar mass, molarity, dilutions, pH calculations, stoichiometric conversions
Nursing connection: Understanding electrolyte solutions, IV concentration calculations, acid-base balance in patient assessment
Weeks 4-5: Organic Chemistry ⚠️
Topics: Carbon chemistry, hydrocarbons, functional groups (alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amines, amides), isomers, organic reactions
Key functional groups: Recognizing the molecular structures that determine how drugs behave in the body
🔑 This is where many students struggle. Organic chemistry is notoriously difficult, and you’re covering it in 2 weeks. Understanding functional groups is essential for pharmacology.
Weeks 6-7: Biochemistry
Topics: Carbohydrates (mono-, di-, polysaccharides), lipids (fats, phospholipids, steroids), proteins (amino acids, peptide bonds, protein structure), enzymes, nucleic acids (DNA, RNA), metabolism basics
Lab Practicum: Week 7 includes a lab practicum testing practical application of concepts
Nursing connection: Understanding nutrition, metabolic disorders (diabetes, lipid disorders), protein synthesis for drug action, genetic basis of disease
Week 8: Review & Final Exam
Focus: Comprehensive review, cumulative final exam covering all topics
Final exam: Typically proctored through Respondus LockDown Browser, covering general, organic, and biochemistry
The Edapt Problem
Chamberlain uses Edapt for content delivery in CHEM 120N. Edapt is a self-paced learning platform—you watch videos, read content, complete knowledge checks, and take module assessments. In theory, it’s flexible. In practice, students consistently report the same problem:
“The school thinks nursing is a joke so the teachers make you do Edapt to teach yourself and NEVER teach in class.”
— Actual Chamberlain student review
The platform delivers content, but when you’re stuck on a concept at 11pm before a deadline, there’s no one to explain it differently. You can’t ask Edapt a question. You can’t get clarification on why your answer was wrong. You just repeat the module until something clicks—or doesn’t.
This is especially brutal for chemistry, where each concept builds on the previous one. Miss something in Week 2 about chemical bonding, and organic chemistry in Week 4 becomes incomprehensible.
What We Handle in Edapt
- Module content — Working through the video lessons and reading materials
- Knowledge checks — The embedded questions throughout each module
- Module assessments — End-of-module quizzes that unlock the next section
- Lab simulations — Virtual labs with data collection and analysis
- Lab reports — Written reports summarizing lab findings
Stuck Teaching Yourself Organic Chemistry?
Edapt wasn’t designed to replace actual instruction. We can actually explain what’s going on.
Labs & The Week 7 Practicum
CHEM 120N includes virtual laboratory components and a lab practicum. These aren’t optional—they’re a significant portion of your grade.
Virtual Labs
Throughout the course, you’ll complete virtual lab simulations covering:
- Measurement and significant figures — Precision in scientific measurements
- Density determination — Calculating and applying density
- Chemical reactions — Observing and classifying reaction types
- Acid-base titrations — Determining concentrations through neutralization
- Molecular models — Building and analyzing molecular structures
- Enzyme activity — Factors affecting biological catalysts
Each lab requires data collection, calculations, and a written lab report. We handle the data analysis and report writing—the calculation-heavy parts that are our specialty.
Week 7 Lab Practicum
The lab practicum in Week 7 tests your practical application of laboratory concepts. It’s typically a timed assessment covering lab techniques, calculations, and data interpretation from the virtual labs you’ve completed throughout the course.
Practicum Preparation
The practicum covers: significant figures, unit conversions, density calculations, molarity, dilution calculations, stoichiometry, pH calculations, and interpretation of lab data. We provide targeted prep materials for the practicum or can handle it directly depending on your exam setup.
Calculations We Master
CHEM 120N is calculation-heavy. Here’s what we handle:
Stoichiometry
Mole-to-mole conversions, mass-to-mass calculations, limiting reagents, percent yield—the quantitative backbone of chemistry
Solution Chemistry
Molarity, molality, dilution calculations (M₁V₁ = M₂V₂), percent concentration, parts per million
Acid-Base Chemistry
pH calculations, pOH, hydrogen ion concentration, buffer calculations, titration stoichiometry
Molecular Calculations
Molar mass, empirical and molecular formulas, percent composition, formula determination from data
Gas Laws
Boyle’s, Charles’s, combined gas law, ideal gas law (PV=nRT), partial pressures
