Course Content & Objectives: This course is the first in a two-semester sequence of general chemistry. We will focus on building a conceptual understanding of fundamental chemical principles including properties of atoms, molecules, states of matter, and chemical reactions . Students will learn the language of chemistry and develop their skills in scientific problem solving and critical thinking. This will serve as a foundation for further study in chemistry, other sciences and related disciplines .  \nThe student should learn how to:  \n1. Differentiate types of matter based on their chemical and physical properties (for example, pure substances vs . mixtures, metals vs . nonmetals, ionic vs . covalent vs . metallic, electrolyte vs . nonelectrolyte) .  \n2. Use multiple perspectives of matter (macroscopic, particle, symbolic levels) to qualitatively describe and explain characteristics, properties, and relationships of the following: atomic structure, nuclear chemistry, periodicity, molecular structure, chemical bonding, chemical reactions, thermochemistry, aqueous solutions, gases .  \n3. Quantify relationships between variables controlling chemical systems .  \n4. Solve quantitative multistep problems combining multiple concepts within the systems .  \n5. Differentiate among closely related factors, categorize problem types, and select appropriate tools to solve these problems .  \n6. Apply chemical principles to explain natural phenomenon .  \n2. IDEA Objectives: Chosen by the faculty for General Chemistry; also apply across other courses and disciplines .  \n1. Gaining a basic understanding of the subject (e.g., factual knowledge, methods, principles, generalizations, theories)  \n2. Learning to apply course material (to improve thinking, problem solving, and decisions)  \n3. Gaining a broader understanding and appreciation of intellectual/cultural activity (music, science, literature, etc.)  \n4. Learning how to find, evaluate, and use resources to explore topics in depth  \nCalendar portion revised 1-13-17  \n3. Quizzes, Exams, and Grading:  \nA total of six 30-minute quizzes will be given during the discussion section . Each quiz will consist of 5 free response questions for a total of 20 points per quiz . The lowest of your six quiz grades will be dropped. If you miss a quiz, that is the quiz that will be dropped.  No make-up quizzes will be given under any circumstances .  \nThere are three 75-minute mid-term exams and one 2-hour final exam . The lowest of the three mid-term exams will be dropped. If you miss an hourly exam, than that is the exam that will be dropped. No make-up mid-term exams will be given under any circumstances . The final exam is cumulative and cannot be dropped. A calculator may be used on all exams and quizzes . However, all memory will be cleared from the calculator before each exam .  \nALEKS Quizzes  \nMid-term exams Final Exam  \n10%  \n15% (Best five out of six quizzes)  \n40% (Best two out of three mid-term exams) 35%  \nTOTAL 100%  \nYou must bring a form of photo identification, such as your Loyola Student ID or your driver’s license, with you to the exam.
