Course Description: Fundamental principles of chemistry for majors in the sciences, health sciences, and engineering; topics include measurements, fundamental properties of matter, states of matter, chemical reactions, chemical stoichiometry, periodicity of elemental properties, atomic structure, chemical bonding, molecular structure, solutions, properties of gases, and an introduction to thermodynamics and descriptive chemistry. A laboratory component is included that gives practical experience to material covered in class. Course Co- or Pre-Requisites: Prerequisite: MATH 1314 College Algebra or equivalent academic preparation Co-requisite: Laboratory for CHEM 1411 General Chemistry I Textbook(s) & ISBN: Please visit the Required/Recommended Reading(s): Please visit the Required Materials: A good calculator that can perform basic scientific functions may be useful. Please visit the Learning Outcomes: Upon completion of this course, the student should demonstrate a master of the following learning outcomes: 1.) Define the fundamental properties of matter. 2.) Classify matter, compounds, and chemical reactions. 3.) Determine the basic nuclear and electronic structure of atoms. 4.) Identify trends in chemical and physical properties of the elements using the Periodic Table. 5.) Describe the bonding in and the shape of simple molecules and ions. 6.) Solve Stoichiometric problems. 7.) Write chemical formulas. 8.) Write and balance equations.
