UNDERGRADUATE LEARNING ASSISTANTS (ULAS): These are GW undergrads that will participate in our lectures, help facilitate inclass problem solving and hold additional office hours. Contact information and office hour schedules will be provided during the first week of classes. LEARNING OBJECTIVES: The overall learning objectives of Chemistry 1112 are to build a firm foundation for future study in the sciences and/or engineering. This is a continuation of Chemistry 1111 wherein we will examine properties of solutions, quantify and determine factors influencing rates of chemical reactions, explore the concept(s) of chemical equilibrium, acid-base chemistry, electrochemistry, thermodynamics and nuclear chemistry. LEARNING OUTCOMES: After studying all materials and resources presented in the course, the student will be able to: 1. State the characteristics of liquids and solids. 2. Articulate the importance of intermolecular interactions and predict trends in physical properties. 3. Identify the characteristics of acids, bases, and salts, and solve problems based on their quantitative relationships. 4. Identify and balance oxidation-reduction equations, and solve redox problems. 5. Determine the rate of a reaction and its dependence on concentration, time, and temperature. 6. Apply the principles of equilibrium to aqueous systems using Le Châtelier’s Principle to predict the effects of concentration, pressure, and temperature changes on equilibrium mixtures. 7. Analyze and perform calculations with the thermodynamic functions, enthalpy, entropy, and free energy. 8. Discuss the construction and operation of galvanic and electrolytic electrochemical cells, and determine standard and non‐ standard cell potentials. 9. Describe the collision theory of chemical kinetics and determine the rate of reaction from appropriate data. 10. Produce rate laws from experimental data and use rate laws to determine reactant concentrations, rate constants, half-life, etc. 11. Know how to use and manipulate the Arrhenius equation and relate rate laws to reaction mechanisms.

12. Describe and predict different types of nuclear decay reactions, determine the energy released in nuclear processes and apply the concept of half-life to radioisotopic dating calculations. AVERAGE MINIMUM AMOUNT OF INDEPENDENT, OUT-OF-CLASS, LEARNING EXPECTED PER WEEK: Over 15 weeks, students will spend 2 hours and 30 minutes per week in lecture, and 3 hours and 50 minutes per week in laboratory and discussion (95 hours for the semester). Practice problems, lab reports and other out-of-class work is estimated at around 700 minutes per week (175 hours for the semester). BLACKBOARD (BB): We will use this resource extensively. The GW Blackboard site is: http://blackboard.gwu.edu The course page will serve as the portal for communication between the instructor and students. Also located here are additional problems, graphics, Tips for Success, cool videos and links, as well as University policies. Please feel free to share links with the instructor!

LECTURE NOTES: I post lecture notes on Blackboard a few days BEFORE each lecture. Please print them out (if you like) and bring them to class. ATTENDANCE AND EXAM POLICY: Attendance of each class is expected, as are on-time arrivals. There will be NO MAKE UP Exams. If you miss an exam, you get a zero (0) for that exam. Exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis PRIOR to the exam. POST-LECTURE ASSIGNMENTS: There will be a weekly homework assignment posted on Bb. These assignments will NOT be graded, but you should spend time working on them if you want to succeed in this course. CALCULATORS: For exams and quizzes, you may use non-graphing calculators only! No iPhones, Blackberries, Android phones, etc. If you are concerned as to whether your calculator is acceptable, please present it to me prior to an exam. A cheap scientific calculator such as a TI-30Xa or a Casio FX-260 (both $9.99 at Staples) would do the job. LAPTOPS AND OTHER ELECTRONIC DEVICES: If you wish to use laptops in class, you will be required to sit in the last row(s) of the lecture hall. Laptops can be used for note taking purposes only. No cell phones, smart phones, Blackberries, etc. are allowed in class. Anyone who engages in rude, thoughtless, selfish behavior, such as use of a cell phone or a laptop for instant messaging, playing games, browsing the Internet, checking email, etc., will have his or her cell phone and/or laptop confiscated and 5 points will be subtracted from his or her final percentage grade. E-MAIL: E-mail correspondence with the instructor is encouraged. That said, office hours are far more effective! When emailing the instructor and/or TA, please use your official GW account (to protect student privacy). E-mails received from other providers (Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.) will be ignored and deleted. Please write Chem1112 in the subject line and INCLUDE YOUR NAME in ALL correspondence. Please consider all sources of information prior to sending an e-mail. DISCUSSION (AKA RECITATION): You will report to an assigned classroom for recitation. This 50-minute period will be used to cover problems that were assigned in lecture and any questions concerning lecture topics. The remainder of the time will be used to give a brief description of the laboratory experiment that will follow immediately after this session. LABORATORY: Refer to the Laboratory Supplement for general information on the laboratory work and lab reports. SCHEDULE FOR LABS AND DISCUSSION: Discussion and laboratories for Chemistry 1112 will run on a Monday - Thursday schedule. The first meetings will be January 28, 29, 30 & 31. METHOD OF EVALUATION: There will be three examinations that will be given during the usual lecture period. Refer to the Schedule below for specific dates. A comprehensive Final Examination will be given at the end of the course. GRADING: Letter grades are not given for individual exams. A numerical average for the course is determined as follows: Three 75-min Lecture Exams (E1, E2, E3) Laboratory Reports (Lab) 120-min Final Exam (F)

52% 20% 28%

READ THIS VERY CAREFULLY: You must receive a passing grade for both the lecture and lab portions of the course. This means earning greater than 55% in the lab and averaging greater than 55% for the exams. The latter may be calculated as: [(E1 + E2 + E3) x 0.2166 + (F x 0.3500)] > 55. The final letter grade is assigned based on the total numerical average for the entire course. Initially, the A range will be defined as 90-100%; the B range 80-89%; etc. NOTE: FAILED EXAMS MAY NOT BE RETAKEN IN ORDER TO RECEIVE A HIGHER SCORE. Grades are NOT negotiable. I do not grade based on effort, perceived or otherwise. PROTOCOL FOR DISCUSSING EXAM GRADES: If you feel an exam was marked incorrectly or unfairly, you have 48 hours from the time the exam was returned (whether or not you had picked it up) to submit your concern in writing. Please resubmit the exam itself and the written explanation of the problem. E-mails will not be considered in this process. ACADEMIC INTEGRITY: The University community, in order to fulfill its mission, must establish and maintain guidelines of academic behavior. All members of the community are expected to exhibit honesty and competence in their academic work. Incoming students have a special responsibility to acquaint themselves with, and make use of, all proper procedures for doing research, writing papers, and taking examinations. Members of the community will be presumed to be familiar with the proper academic procedures and held responsible for applying them. Deliberate failure to act in accordance with such procedures will be considered academic dishonesty. Acts of academic dishonesty are a legal, moral, and intellectual offense against the community and will be prosecuted through the proper University channels. Copies of the University Code of Academic Integrity can be obtained from the following officers: all department chairs, all academic deans, the Registrar, and the Vice President for Academic Affairs or online at: http://studentconduct.gwu.edu Chem1112.10, Spring 2019, Prof. Zysmilich - Page 2 of 3

STUDENT CONDUCT: All students, upon enrolling and while attending The George Washington University, are subject to the provisions of the Guide to Student Rights and Responsibilities, which outlines student freedoms and responsibilities of conduct, including the Code of Student Conduct, and other policies and regulations as adopted and promulgated by appropriate University authorities. Copies of these documents may be obtained from the Office of the Dean of Students or from the offices of the academic deans. Sanctions for violation of these regulations may include permanent expulsion from the University, which may make enrollment in another college or university difficult. DISABILITY SUPPORT SERVICES (DSS): Any student who feels s/he may need an accommodation based on the impact of a disability should contact the Disability Support Services (http://disabilitysupport.gwu.edu/) office at 202-994-8250 in Rome Hall, Suite 102, to establish eligibility and to coordinate reasonable accommodations. At a student's request, DSS prepares an individualized letter to professors that verifies the nature of the student's disability and documents the need for auxiliary aids and services and/or academic adjustments. Students are encouraged to meet with each professor early in the semester to discuss the academic implications of the disability as they relate to the specific course and to request accommodation. All students needing special accommodations for the exams (additional time, scribe assistance, etc.) should submit an accommodation request online AT LEAST seven days before each test. If the request is submitted after this deadline, the student will have to take the test with the rest of the class and in the allotted 75 minutes. No exceptions. UNIVERSITY COUNSELING CENTER (UCC): The University Counseling Center (http://counselingcenter.gwu.edu) offers 24/7 assistance and referral to address students' personal, social, career, and study skills problems. 202-994-5300 Services for students include: • crisis and emergency mental health consultations • confidential assessment, counseling services (individual and small group), and referrals COURSE SCHEDULE: The actual pace of the course may vary (and impact exam content), yet exam dates are fixed.
