CHEM 1210 - Principles of Chemistry I (PS)

Institution:

Utah Tech University

Subject:

Chemistry

Description:

Fulfills General Education Physical Science requirement for students majoring in Life or Physical Sciences, Engineering, and pre-professional programs (pre-medical, pre-dental, etc.). Provides theoretical and practical framework for further study in the sciences; emphasizes measurement, stoichiometry, the nature of the atom, chemical periodicity, the states of matter, thermodynamics and bonding. Successful completion satisfies pre-requisite for CHEM 1220. Completion of a prior Chemistry course is strongly recommended before enrolling in this course. Inclusive Access Course Material (electronic book) fees may apply, see Fees tab under each course section for details. **COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLOs) At the successful conclusion of this course, students will be able to: 1. Apply chemical principles to the understanding of the physical and natural world. 2. Utilize mathematical skills and the mole concept to solve chemical problems in balancing reaction equations, mass relationships, stoichiometry and their application to titrations. 3. Predict atomic structure, chemical bonding or molecular geometry based on theoretical models and results of empirical studies including periodic trends. 4. Describe the intermolecular forces which influence the properties of gases, liquids, and solids, and quantitatively determine the physical state of materials. 5. Determine the solubility, concentrations, and ionic properties of compounds dissolved in aqueous solution. Prerequisites: MATH 1050 or higher (Grade C or higher) or equivalent placement score, taken within two years of enrollment in this course. Corequisites: CHEM 1215. FA, SP
