1 Principles of Inorganic, rganic and Biological Chemistry Chemistry 11 Course Syllabus Instructor: Ms. Julie Lowe Phone: ffice: SE-5B Include a subject of Chem11 so your message is not deleted ffice hours: MW TTH 12:45-2:30pm 4:15 5:00pm Lecture: MW 11:10 12:35pm in SE-53 Lab #1: TTh 9:35 12:45am in SE-18 Lab #2: TTh 1:00 4:10pm in SE-18 Instructor webpage: Course Description: Designed for the student who wants an overview of chemistry in one semester, especially for Allied Health students. Topics include: inorganic chemistry - measurement, quantities, reactions, nomenclature; organic chemistry classification, properties, reactions, nomenclature; biochemistry classification, structure, energy production in living organisms. Three hours lecture, six hours lab per week. Five units. Prerequisites: Math BA with a grade of C or higher. Reading level 5 or 6. Expectations: Any 5 unit course requires a great deal of effort and self-discipline. If you want to earn a good grade in this class you will need to schedule your outside study time for 2 hours per day, every day, including weekends. In this course you are expected to: attend all lectures and labs take good lecture and lab notes read the text complete questions within the chapters complete additional questions at the end of each chapter review end of chapter concept map & chapter review & key terms pre-read the laboratory procedure perform experiments complete lab reports turn in homework, problem sets and lab reports on time study for quizzes and exams. That s a lot!! Required materials: 1. Textbook: Chemistry: Introduction to General, rganic & Biochemistry, 10 th Edition, by Karen Timberlake, ISBN Lab manual: Chemistry, An Introduction to General, Inorganic & Biological Chemistry, ESSENTIAL laboratory manual, 10 th Edition, by Karen Timberlake, ISBN Mastering Chemistry web access 4. Scientific calculator the TI 30X is inexpensive and easy to use. 5. Approved safety goggles and a combination lock for lab. See me for advice before purchasing these Scantron forms, quiz size, # 15/815 - E Special Needs: Students with disabilities who believe they may need accommodations in this class are encouraged to contact Disabled Student Programs & Services located at Student Services Building, 1st Floor, Counseling Center ( ), as soon as possible to better ensure such accommodations are implemented in a timely fashion. Attendance: Students are expected to attend all lectures and laboratory sessions this is crucial to your success. But, you are allowed to miss two weeks of classes!! This translates to 4 lecture and 4 laboratory absences. If you exceed the maximum absences you may be dropped. Arriving late/leaving early: This deprives you of lecture or laboratory material and is a distraction to your fellow students and instructor. If you arrive late or leave early for lecture you will be marked ½ hour absent, for lab you will be marked 1 hour absent. This means every 3 occurrences equals 1 absence. The buddy system works! Take advantage of the resources available to you: your fellow students in study groups the free on campus tutoring or private tutors your textbook, study guide your instructor, who knows exactly how hard you are working!

2 Cheating: Although you are encouraged to work together on homework your individual work must be evident. Very similar versions of the same assignment will not be graded. Allowing others to copy your work is unacceptable and considered cheating you will be asked just say no! Cheaters will be reported to the Director of Student Services for expulsion from the class and disciplinary action. Assignments: Homework, lab reports, projects, etc will be given regularly and are due at the start of class. Late work will not be accepted, except when absent, in which you may only turn in work the day you return. Always staple your multi-page assignments together or points will be taken off. Contact me or your study partner to know what is due. Grading: Your course grade will be computed upon weighted averages of all your assignments as follows: exams 30% final exam 10% homework 15% quizzes 15% laboratory work 30% total 100% The results of the weighted averages will be converted into a letter grade as follows: % A 77-86% B 65-76% C 50-64% D Below 50% F If the final exam is not taken, you will earn an F. EXTRA CREDIT PPRTUNITY!!!!!!! Ringing cell phones are rude distractions. I want to provide a positive learning environment for you to learn. Since we all appreciate rewards for positive behaviors, I am going to reward everyone for remembering to turn off electronic equipment. The whole class now has 10% extra credit towards the final exam!!!! That s one whole letter grade!! But each time a phone rings, or vibrates, the whole class will lose 2 ½%. Protect your extra credit! Grade record worksheet Keep all work until the end of the semester!!!!

Based on periodic atomic properties, students should be able to explain the relative macroscopic physical properties of matter. 5) Explain various observations on test, quizzes, and lab reports. Students should be able to explain their observations based on atomic/molecular structures and on the absorption or release of energy. 6) Identify and explain several common chemical systems and behaviors such as electrolytes, buffers, equilibria, and osmosis. These form a framework for later learning in the biological sciences. 7) Characterize and identify several chemical reactions that are frequently encountered in biochemistry and physiology, such as A. xidation/reduction reactions D. Hydrolysis reactions B. Acid/base reactions E. Addition reactions C. Condensation--dehydration reactions 8) Recognize from the name or structure organic functional groups and associate these groups with their chemical and physical properties. 9) Name and recognize the chemical structure of lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins. Students should describe the functions of these classes of compounds and how these compounds are broken down in the processes of metabolism to produce energy in the body.

6 Laboratory Policies You will need the original lab book written by Timberlake. Photo copies will not be accepted after the second week of class. Lab experiment #1 and #2, is available for you to photo copy at the reference desk of the library. Laboratory sessions may consist of experimental labs (both wet & dry labs), lab report completion, problem sets, homework review, internet & library assignments, lecture topics, quizzes, exams, field trips and anything else I can think of. Therefore, be prepared for anything! Bring your lecture notebook and calculator in addition to the lab book. Experimental work will be completed with one lab partner. You will have rotating partners. ne week your partner may be the student to your left, another week it may be the student across the room. Great study group partners are discovered during lab time. After completing an experiment get my signature. Do this before you tear down your equipment and clean up since I will occasionally ask you to redo something to acquire better results. You may then complete the calculations and questions. If time allows, you can then get a head start on your homework until the lab period is over. Be sure to ask me questions since I will be right there in the lab with you! Lab reports will have a value of 25 points each. Lab reports will be turned in at the beginning of the next lab session after it was started. No late work is accepted except for absences. Reports will be randomly graded with the following criteria: Reports graded will be assessed for completeness and correct answers for many questions. Reports not graded will be assessed for completeness only and will be given a grade of the final average of your graded reports. If you are absent for a lab session, you will receive a zero for that lab report. Your safety is of the utmost importance in the chemistry lab! In addition to the many chemistry department safety rules, I have some of my own. Do not leave a Bunsen burner lit and unattended. Five points will be deducted from all partner s 25 point report. Do not wear tank tops or sleeveless tops. You will be asked to leave. An exception is if you wear a lab coat to protect yourself. If you drop the class you must also check out of lab. Failure to check out may result in a fee for having the stockroom personnel do it for you. Disaccharide with a β-1,4 glycosidic bond Bakersfield College Chemistry 11 Page 6 of 6 Fall 2010
