Important Information:

This is an integrated class that combines both the lecture and the laboratory grade.  You must have a passing grade in the lecture portion of the class and the laboratory portion of the class in order to pass this course.

Passing the lecture portion of the course requires a passing average for assignments, quizzes, exams, and the final exam.

Passing the laboratory portion of the course requires attendance to lab and completion of all aspects of the laboratory experiments including any pre-lab reports, quizzes, exams, and laboratory reports as required by your laboratory instructor.

Reference Material: Note: Links to other web sites may be changed without notice

FOR REVIEW PURPOSES notes on metric system, chemical symbols, formulas, nomenclature, chemical equations, and more will be found in the General Chem Survival Manual section.

The Periodic Table This is a link to the Web Elements Periodic Table by Mark Winter, Dept. of Chemistry, University of Sheffield. Probably the best periodic table on the Internet, it provides a wealth of information about the elements.

ChemSpider ChemSpider links together compound information across the web, providing free text and structure search access of millions of chemical structures. With an abundance of additional property information, tools to curate and use the data, and integration to a multitude of other online services, ChemSpider is the richest single source of structure-based chemistry information available online.  ChemSpider is provided free by the Royal Society of Chemistry

Exams

Practice placement exams and a ACS-type final exam are posted at Hope College's ChemBoard This is a link to that website.

Chemistry Videos for Review of Topics

Khan Academy provides a number of videos on various subjects at no cost on YouTube. They are a not-for-profit organization with a mission of providing information. (They do ask for donations) The chemistry videos cover most of the topics for a high school or first-year college chemistry course. The videos are essentially lectures of up to about 15 minutes in length with limited notes being written on a black screen as one would write on a blackboard with some occasional pictures or tables. These were recommended by a student. I have only viewed portions of some videos and have found a few misconceptions, so use these with care.
