Welcome to Chemistry Fundamentals II Chemistry fundamentals covers a variety of topics including intermolecular forces, solutions and colligative properties, equilibria, thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, electrochemistry, and nuclear chemistry. Chemistry is one of the unique fields in science with wide range of applications including those in medicine, chemical biology, material, and energy.  Course Overview This course will provide you the opportunity to understand intermolecular forces, phase diagrams, solutions and the energy associated with its formation, colligative properties, chemical kinetics, chemical equilibrium, acids and bases, aqueous ionic equilibrium, free energy, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, and radioactivity. The lectures are an integral part of learning, yet in-class group problem solving and minute papers will be incorporated to optimize the learning outcomes.  Engagement Systems A web based response system, stuiz.com, will be adapted in the classroom. It is a registered classroom response system that allows you to respond to questions posed by your professor in class. It will be used to gauge your participation in class. It is also used as means of checking on the classes’ overall understanding of a given topic or concept covered during lecture. You will be prompted to register for it; registration will be necessary.  Required text

Course Prerequisite Knowledge A passing grade of “C” or better in either of CM2045 or CHM 2041C is necessary.

Exams and Quizzes In-class quizzes will not be announced in advance, while online quizzes will. Nine multiple−choice quizzes, one per chapter, will be given during the course. Each quiz will include a bonus question. Exams 1−3 will consist of 24 multiple−choice questions given over 60 minutes; bring in a raspberry scantron. The lowest of exams 1−3 grades will be dropped. A standardized national exam from the American Chemical Society (ACS) will be used as our final exam in the course. The final exam consist of 40 questions, with 20 concept based and 20 calculation based questions. You may use scientific calculator on any of the exams, and no other types are permitted on exams. Attendance and Make-up Policy Attendance is essential for your success! No make up quizzes will be granted. For university-approved excuses, i.e. athlete travel, the final exam replaces any missed exam; refer to the UCF student handbook from http://www.osc.sdes.ucf.edu/. Student Accessibility Services (SAS) It is my goal that this class be an accessible and welcoming experience for all students, including those experiencing any barriers that may impact learning in this class. You may meet with me and or contact SAS for any course related accommodations; SAS will inform me in writing shall any need arise.  Academic Integrity UCF policies regarding honesty will be strictly enforced on all exams, and quizzes. Violators will receive a grade of “F”, for more info refer to http://z.ucf.edu/. For a description of what constitutes academic dishonesty, refer to the UCF’s Rules of Conduct at http://www.osc.sdes.ucf.edu/.

Evaluation and Grading

Electronic Devices The use of electronic devices is strictly limited to course related information, when applicable. Students must request a written permission via e-mail prior to taking any photos or recording of any kind during any given lecture of CHM2046.0001 Fall 2016. The Challenge CHM2046 is a course that requires you to understand the material in order to master it and thereby apply it. It does require a lot of practice! Some tips for success: look over upcoming sections from the textbook prior to attending lectures, attend lectures and take notes, revise the lecture material and re-read the textbook as necessary, work out chapter problems, create chapter summaries, practice connecting concepts with calculations in a given problem, and enjoy learning chemistry!
