Columbia, SC
CHM 110 COLLEGE CHEMISTRY I CR. 4.0
Course Description:
This is the first course in a sequence that includes the following topics: Atomic and molecular structure, nomenclature and chemical reactions, properties and states of matter, stoichiometry, gas laws, and solutions. Energy changes in reactions are also included. (Prerequisite: MAT 102 or equivalent).
GENERAL INFORMATION -2-
Textbook: Chemistry: The Central Science Brown, Lemay, Bursten; MTC edition (or 9th ed. 2002).
Lab Manual: MTC Chemistry 110-111 Lab Manual.
Required Materials: Scientific calculator and safety glasses or goggles (lab only).
Attendance: Max. absences: 2X number of class or lab meetings/week.
Instructor/section-specific information: Separate page.
Grading Scale:
0-59 60-69 70-79 80-89 90 and above
F D C B A
The course grade is calculated by adding 75% of the lecture average and 25% of the lab average. The lecture grade will be the average of four tests. There is no cumulative exam. For the final exam, the student may elect to retest the material from one of the four tests taken during the semester. The laboratory grade is the average of the 13 highest grades, allowing for one grade to be dropped. Generally, labs missed cannot be made up.
Departmental Policies: Additional policies for the Department are available in the Science Department’s Student Policy and Procedures Handbook (Academic Center, Rm. 368; Robinson Bldg., Rm. 106; Lindau Engineering Tech. Bldg., Rm. 421)
COURSE OBJECTIVES;
The purpose of this General Education Core course is to give the student:
Knowledge of the terminology of the chemical sciences
The ability to make calculations of chemical mass and energy
The ability to predict and quantify chemical changes
An understanding of the structure and classification of matter
The practical knowledge of benefits and applications of chemical
processes and techniques.

CHM 110 HOMEWORK
(Brown-Lemay-Bursten):
Ch. 1-11: Do all chapter exercises, review questions, and practice problems. You must practice the problems in order to learn chemistry; you cannot learn it by watching someone else do the work. It won’t take hold until you do it. Your textbook is a rich resource of chemical questions and calculations; use it! It is imperative that you answer a large number of the review questions and work many of the exercises and problems in each chapter. The more you do, the better your knowledge of the subject will become. The Solutions manual shows how all of the even-numbered problems at the end of each chapter are done, and you will find it very useful. From time to time there may be classroom distribution of additional exercises for you to complete.
Your instructor may give you an assignment for Chapter 12.
The following chapter problems are recommended as representative samples of the most important concepts for each chapter. Your instructor may also recommend additional problems for you.
