Chemistry: the science in context, T. R. Gilbert, R. V. Kirss, N. Foster, G.
Davies Third ed., Norton, 2012.
This course is the second half of a
two-semester first-year sequence in chemistry. You will learn the properties of
the states of matter and the fundamental ways of describing these properties.
From there, you will learn about the rates of chemical changes and the concept
of equilibrium. Chemical equilibrium will be covered in detail, with emphasis
on acid-base, electrochemical and solubility equilibrium and equilibrium
thermodynamics. All in-class assignments
(exams, quizzes) must be done with non-communicating devices (pencil, pen,
slide rule, abacus, non-communicating calculator). Use
of a communicating calculator on an in-class assignment will result in a score
of 0 on that assignment.
GRADING POLICY
A
weekly quiz will be given during the first five minutes of each Monday class.
The quiz will consist of one or two short-answer or multiple choice questions
based on the material covered in the preceding week’s lecture and/or homework
assignments. Three in-class, full-period exams will be
given on the dates listed below. The final exam will be a two-hour,
standardized, comprehensive examination covering both semesters of this course.
The grading for this course will be based on examination performance (100
points for each semester exam, 200 points for the final exam). The quiz total
(13 quizzes x 7 possible points each = 91 possible points) may be used to
replace the lowest examination score. The
score for the first missed exam will automatically be replaced with the quiz
total. No make-up exams will be given for missed exams. Homework problems
from the text will be assigned, but not collected. Attendance at all class
meetings is expected. Six or more absences may result in a reduced grade for
the course.
In order to receive appropriate
accommodations, students with disabilities must register with the Center for
Teaching and Learning Excellence and provide relevant and current medical
documentation. Students should contact Mary Ellen Pichiarello
(Extension 4039) or Jim Muniz (Extension 4218), 5th floor, St. Thomas Hall, for
an appointment. For more information, see http://www.scranton.edu/disabilities.
Academic
honesty:
The first time that a
student is caught cheating on an exam or quiz, he or she will receive a grade of zero points for that assignment.
For further consequences of violating academic ethics please refer to the
University of Scranton Student Handbook.
