COURSE DESCRIPTION Chemistry 11200 is an online, 3-credit-hour, general chemistry course for agriculture, health and human science, and other majors. CHM 11200 is a continuation of CHM 11100 (General Chemistry I) and meets the science requirement of the University’s foundational core. The course is oriented around helping you learn some of the fundamental chemistry concepts, calculations, and laboratory skills you need in your major. Topics covered includes intermolecular forces, acids, bases, buffers, titrations, and reaction rates. The CHM 11200 team—the professor and graduate teaching assistants, administrative assistants, and general chemistry preparations lab—are committed to and focused on helping you learn chemistry. We know that this is a foundational course for your major, and to achieve your goals and dreams, you need to do well in the course! Please read on to learn about the required materials, lectures and lab schedule, recommended ways to study, grading, and other course policies and procedures. Lecture PowerPoints , links, assignments, and other course information are available through the course Brightspace page ( [https://purdue.brightspace.com/d2l/home/1561991](https://purdue.brightspace.com/d2l/home/1561991) ) . You should visit it often and sign up for notifications so you can keep up to date on any helpful course information. RESOURCES, TECHNOLOGY & TEXTS Required Textbook + Online Homework: I have chosen the McGraw-Hill ALEKS online homework program for our online digital homework platform this semester. When you purchase ALEKS access it includes an electronic copy of the textbook, Chemistry by Overby, 15th edition. There is also an option available for purchasing a loose-leaf version of the book directly from McGraw-Hill. See Brightspace for further information. Required Lab Manual + Lab Simulation: We have a digital laboratory manual this semester from LabFlow. You can purchase instant access to the online lab manual for Summer 2025 using the link on the Brightspace course page. We will also be using the Beyond Labz lab simulation platform for most of the labs this semester. You can purchase instant access to Beyond Labz using the link on the Brightspace course page. NOTE: If you purchased ALEKS and Beyond Labz in CHM 11100 or CHM 11200 in Fall 2025 or Spring 2026 you probably do not need to repurchase these again. Details are given on the Brightspace course page. Contact Dr. Harwood with
