CHEM 1110 - ♦General Chemistry I

General Chemistry I includes scientific method; measurement and data analysis; properties of matter and energy; structure and properties of atoms; chemical nomenclature and composition;
chemical bonding; molecular structure; molecular interactions; properties of solids, liquids, gases and aqueous solutions; chemical energy and calorimetry; chemical reaction quantities; and
properties of acid-base, ion-precipitation and redox reactions. The laboratory methods and techniques include: measure and dispense liquids with volumetric glassware; weigh materials with digital balances; separate materials by gravity and vacuum filtration; dissolve and precipitate solids; dilute and mix solutions; centrifuge solutions; measure light absorbance and concentration by spectrophotometry; use pH meters and indicators; perform analytical titrations; generate and collect gases in reactions; control heating plate, gas flame and oven heat sources; measure temperature and heat exchange in calorimetry; measure voltage and current in electrochemical processes; and complete worksheets with calculations and data analysis for each experiment.
