CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION Atoms, molecules and ions; Mass relations in chemistry, stoichiometry; Gasses, the ideal gas law, partial pressures, mole fractions, kinetic theory of gases; Electronic structure and the periodic table; Thermochemistry, calorimetry, enthalpy, the first law of thermodynamics; Liquids and Solids; Solutions; Acids and Bases; Organic Chemistry. AIMS & OBJECTIVES This course is designed as a one-semester course for freshman engineering students. It offers the opportunity to the student to develop: an adequate background in fundamentals of descriptive, applied and theoretical chemistry. systematic problem solving skills through numerous conceptual and numerical problems requiring critical and analytical thinking skills in addition to a good grasp of chemical concepts. scientific literacy and awareness to become an informed citizen basic laboratory skills. LEARNING OUTCOMES Recognise the constituents and properties of matter in general, and of atoms, molecules and ions in particular Understand the role of energy in chemistry Understand chemical bonds and intermolecular interactions Identify and name the substances Understand periodicity and periodic table Describe chemical mixtures Interpret system of units used in physical sciences Use symbols and units correctly; and formulate appropriate mathematical and chemical equations for solving problems Apply the theoretical concepts and methods of chemistry covered in this course to solve problems Use dimensional analysis method for solving numerical problems Use efficiently and effectively a variety of printed and electronic text, material (including the textbook) relevant to the course Handle chemicals properly, performing experiments as a team safely, and writing lab reports Understand the concentration or the amount of active matter in an aqueous solution Use good scientific English for written and oral communication Grading Criteria NG nil grade Letter grades are determined by a curve system. No letter-grade templates apply. Conditions that might lead to NG grade. i) Not attending the class more than 80% of total lecture hours. ii) Not attending any two exams, including make-up.

EXAMS (See Grading Criteria) 1. There will be two quizzes, one midterm exam and one final exam. Exam results are announced on the Chemistry Department Notice Board. 2. All students should have a scientific calculator for use in exams. 3. Mobile phones are not allowed to be used in the exams as a calculator. 4. Students can see their papers in the first 10 days following the announcement of results, but not later than that. MAKE-UP EXAM There is only one make-up exam that is held in the final week of the semester (its date, place and time will be announced later). This one exam is for all students who have missed a quiz or the midterm. Make-up exams in CHEM 101 are much harder than the regular exams. RESIT EXAM Students, who miss the final exam or are eligible, can take the RESIT exam, which will be scheduled during the week of 22-29 June 2013. OBJECTIONS Students marked exam papers are available for inspection from course instructors upon request. To conform to regulations these requests should be made within 10 days of announcement of marks. Objections to any grade must be made to the instructors.

ATTENDANCE
Lectures: The students are expected to attend the lectures (minimum %20 absence). Failure to fulfill this criterion may result with an NG grade. (See the Grading Criteria). Attendance is taken done regularly. Labs: Laboratory work is compulsory. Missing three or more experiments will result in failure in CHEM 101.

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT Quiz I Midterm Quiz II Laboratory work Final Attendance to lectures -

10% 25% 10% 10% 40% 5%

(Quizzes: 20%, Reports: 50% and Lab Final Exam 30%)

Make-up exams: All students will be allowed to make-up a maximum of one missed exam or quiz right after the final exams. No medical report is required. Passing old lab marks (4/10 or higher) of repeating students are transferrable; therefore they dont have to repeat the lab work. Quizzes about the experiments to be performed are given before each lab session. Reports are submitted after the experiment. TEXTBOOK/S Chemistry Principles and Reactions (7th edition, 2012) by William L. Masterton and Cecile N. Hurley, Brooks/Cole Cengage Learning LEARNING / TEACHING METHOD Regular classroom lectures and tutorials - Biweekly regular lab sessions ASSIGNMENTS No homework is assigned in the lecture. A lab report should be submitted after each lab session.

OTHER IMPORTANT REMARKS

Each student needs a non-programmable scientific calculator. Students are not allowed to the lab without a lab coat. Lab coats are available in the bookstore. Mobile phones are strictly prohibited in exams.

ACADEMIC HONESTY - PLAGIARISM Cheating is copying from others or providing information, written or oral, to others. Plagiarism is copying without acknowledgement from other peoples work. According to university by laws cheating and plagiarism are serious offences punishable by disciplinary committee ranging from simple failure from the exam or project, to more serious action (letter of official warning, suspension from the university for up to one semester). Disciplinary action is written in student records and may appear in student transcripts.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL STUDENTS REPEATING THE COURSE FOR A BETTER GRADE; WHATEVER GRADE YOU RECEIVE AT THE END OF THIS SEMSTER WILL REPLACE YOUR PREVIOUS GRADE.
