Course Syllabus - Spring 2018 (WORD file)
COURSE DESCRIPTION: This chemistry course will begin your college-level investigation into the chemical sciences. We will cover topics, such as atomic theory, nomenclature (chemical naming), chemical reactions, stoichiometry (keeping track of elements during a chemical reaction), thermochemistry (heat generating reactions), chemical bonding, gas behavior, and kinetics (the rate of chemical reactions). The textbook uses practical applications and examples to illustrate these principles. Chemistry is an exciting field with many job opportunities. It is my hope that you will enjoy the subject matter, see the relationship between chemistry to all aspects of our lives, and gain an appreciation for the interdisciplinary nature and relevance of chemistry.
