Calculators cannot be shared during exams and quizzes.Laboratory Research Notebook: Available in the bookstore.Safety goggles: Available in the bookstore.RECOMMENDED:Student’s Manual for Chemistry: A Molecular Approach, 2nd ed (only for those who need help doing the problems)COURSE OBJECTIVE:Chemistry 1212 is the second course in the Chemistry 1211/1212 sequence That provides a thorough introduction to the principles of general chemistry. It is designed for students who are science majors and who have already had some introduction to chemistry. Mathematics of chemistry, solution chemistry, kinetics, equilibrium, acids and bases, thermodynamics and electrochemistry will be covered. After completion of this course a student is expected to:1. Reason and think analytically in solving problems and makingdecisions in matters involving chemistry. Attainment of this objective will be reflected by the student's ability to:a. Apply the First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics involving the concepts of enthalpy, entropy and free energy.b.Apply the concept of buffered solutions. Describe a galvanic cell using half-cell reactions2. Apply a basic understanding of the systematic methods of scientific inquiry, principles and procedures to investigate problems. Attainment of this objective will be reflected by the student's ability to:Use equilibrium constants to explain chemical equilibrium.Explain solubility, vapor pressure, boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, osmotic pressure and the colligative properties of electolyte solutions based on intermolecular forces.Use pH to describe acids and bases.Use reaction rates, rate laws, reaction mechanisms and catalysis to explain chemical kinetics.Describe the physical significance of the state functions: enthalpy, entropy, internal energy and free energy.Describe the structure of solids using the closest packing of spheres model.Describe liquids using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation. 3. Understand and apply fundamental mathematical concepts in solving chemistry problems. Attainment of this objective will be reflected by the student's ability to:a. Use the SI system, scientific notation, and dimensional analysis in solving problems to the correct number of significant figures.Solve acid-base and buffer solution problems.Solve pH, chemical equilibrium and chemical kinetics problems.Calculate the molarity, molality, and mole fraction of solutions.Calculate the thermodynamic functions using Hess' Law 4. Apply available information technology to conduct library research in the field of chemistry. Attainment of this objective will be reflected by the student's ability to: Successfully complete laboratory experiments by locating reference or standard values of laboratory measured quantities for comparison and error analysis.Conduct a literature search on projects as assigned.5. Read, listen and communicate with clarity, effectiveness and understanding. Attainment of this objective will be reflected by the student's ability to:Successfully complete written and oral assignments, quizzes and examinations.Follow oral and written instructions to successfully complete laboratory assignments.Present oral and/or written responses to assignments, quizzes, examinations and laboratory reports in a clear, logical and legible manner. ATTENDANCE:Attendance will be taken during each class period. Unexcused and excessive absences will count against your class participation score. Tardiness will be considered an absence. GRADES below.You are responsible for all material covered in lecture. For this reason, class attendance is critical for success in chemistry. Absences will lower your comprehension of the material and may be a major contributor to failure in the class. However, students should be mindful of the health and well-being of fellow students.?? Students who are ill or otherwise suspect to be carrying a contagious illness should refrain from class attendance.? The course syllabus’ policies on class attendance, assignments and class participation still apply.GRADES:Determination of the final grade for the course will be based on in-class exams, quizzes, a final exam, class participation, a laboratory grade (see separate laboratory syllabus) and any extra credit earned. The distribution will be as follows: In-class Exams 45%Laboratory 15%Final laboratory Exam 5%Class Participation 5%Final Exam 30%Extra Credit XXThe final letter grade will be based on the following general scale: A 90 - 100B 80 - 89C 70 - 79D 60 - 69F < 60IN-CLASS EXAMS:There will be three in-class exams given on the following dates:Tuesday - June 12Tuesday - June 26Tuesday - July 10The exams will be averaged. No exam will be dropped. There will be no make up exams. Without an acceptable, documented, and valid excuse, missed exams will be assigned a score of zero. To minimize cheating opportunities, no one will be allowed to leave the classroom during exams. Please ensure you attend to your restroom needs prior to taking the exam.LABORATORY GRADE: The laboratory grade will count as 20% of your overall Chemistry 1212 grade. A student who fails the laboratory portion of the course will receive an F for the ENTIRE course. An average laboratory score of less than 9 out of 15 constitutes laboratory failure. The grade consists of the following:A. Laboratories (15%) Pre-lab Quiz - 5 points out of 15 Lab Report Form - 5 points out of 15Lab Notebook Pages - 5 points out of 15B. Final Laboratory Exam (5%)A final Laboratory exam will be given during the laboratory period on July 21, 2012. You will ONLY have the use of your OWN Laboratory Notebook for this exam. Lab notebooks cannot be shared. Use of graded lab reports will also not be allowed. Borrowing someone else's notebook will be considered cheating and will result in an F for the course as well as the reporting of the student to the Academic Dean.A student who fails the laboratory portion of the course will receive an F for the entire course. An average laboratory score of less than 9 out of 15 constitutes laboratory failure. CLASSPARTICI-PATION:Class participation involves your active participation in class and your adherence to the policies outlined in this syllabus regarding class attendance, punctuality, late arrival for class, early departure from class and any extra credit participation. Disrespectful and disruptive behavior during lectures and labs will not be tolerated. It is the teacher's prerogative to expel you from the class and/or from the course if this occurs. FINAL EXAM:A comprehensive, two-hour final exam will be given on Monday, July 23 at 9:15 a.m. – 11:15 a.m. in the IC building, Room 420 covering all lecture material from the course. The exam cannot be made up. The exam will constitute 30 % of your overall course grade. EXTRACREDIT:Throughout the course, opportunities will be provided for extra credit via several means (extra problems on exams and quizzes, out of class assignments, etc.). Any credit earned as a result of this extra credit work will be added to the final course grade before the letter grade of the course is assigned. ACADEMIC DISHONESTY POLICY:Unless otherwise stated by the instructor, exams and quizzes must reflect your work only. Although students will work in pairs in the laboratory (to include the preparation of the pre-lab and laboratory reports), each student is responsible for completing and turning in their own laboratory reports and pre-labs. Cheating in any form will not be tolerated and will result in an F for the course as well as the reporting of the student to the Academic Dean. See the policy concerning Academic Dishonesty, in the Gordon College Academic Catalog. LECTURE SCHEDULENOTE: THIS IS A TENTATIVE SCHEDULE AND MAY BE REVISED AT THE INSTRUCTOR'S DISCRETION. It is always the student’s responsibility and duty to attend classes so as to keep abreast of any changes in the lecture and exam schedule.DATESUBJECTHOMEWORKMay 30, 31June 1,4,5 Introduction & ReviewLiquids, Solids and Intermolecular Forces Read Chapter 11 Sections 2, 4, 5 and 11 only.
