One of the things I remember about my General Chemistry class in college was that we spent a lot of time on quantum mechanics. I can't say I understood everything about it, but QM in chemistry was a lot more empirical and concrete than QM in physics.

They let us play around with atomic emission spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and I think getting to know how to use the instruments did require getting to know QM. At least, if you wanted to write a good "discussion" section on your lab reports.
