Required Materials:  

Tech & Experiment Organic Chemistry LAB I CHM 2010 (CUSTOM) Author(s): Pappas Publisher: XANEDU CUSTOM PUBLISHING ISBN-13:9781506695563 ISBN-10: 1506695566. Non- programmable scientific calculator (TI 30 or equivalent).

Course Description: Laboratory courses are designed to highlight selected concepts as they are discussed in lecture so that the student is able to view the concept from both a hands-on approach as well as the theoretical/conceptual methods of lecture. In the process of performing experiments, the student also learns to manipulate chemical equipment and hazardous chemical compounds including concentrated acids and bases and very toxic and flammable organic compounds. Several of the main purposes of an organic chemist are to: synthesize, separate, characterize, and elucidate the structure of compounds that are important facets of our everyday lives. CHM 2210L is the first half of the sequence of CHM2210L-CHM 2211L organic chemistry laboratory for professional chemistry, pharmacy, medicine, and other programs. It includes nomenclature, preparations, reactions, and electronic and structural features of alcohols, ethers, phenols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, amines and other selected organic compounds. In this class, you will also put to practice methods and techniques (physical properties, separation and purification, structure elucidation, synthesis) learned in CHM2210 lab.

Lab Assignments (40 points each): Each experiment has lab assignments which are due at the beginning of the next lab session. A 3-point deduction will be incurred for each day the assignment is turned in late. Lab assignments that are turned in after the beginning of the lab session will be considered as one day late. Lab assignments must be in non-erasable ink. Points will be taken off if your answers are illegible, therefore, please be as neat as possible. IF YOU MISS AN EXPERIMENT – FOR WHATEVER REASON – THAT WILL AUTOMATICALLY BECOME THE DROPPED SCORE. There will be a midterm exam (150 points) and a final exam (150 points). All students are required to take both the midterm and final exams.

Grading Scale

A = 90.0-100% B = 80.0-89.9% C = 70.0-79.9% D = 60.0-69.9% F = 0-59.9%

Attendance: No make up experiments will be allowed. All students are expected to be on time and prepared. Important safety information will be covered during the first 10-15 minutes of the lab Therefore, if you are more than 15 minutes late, you will not be allowed to carry out the scheduled experiment. Labs missed due to safety violations, lack of preparation or tardiness cannot be made up. Students are expected to arrive on time. All lab work must be completed prior to the end of the lab session. You will not be given extra time to finish a lab. You should be leaving the lab no later than the exact ending time of your lab session, no extra time will be allowed. In experiments that take two weeks for completion if you miss one of the two sessions you will be penalized with 15 points. Please be on time and be prepared to start the lab experiment!

Final Exam

You will be purged from the class roll if you miss more than one lab. Please read up on the lab material and complete the relevant parts of your lab journal before attending the actual lab. This is absolutely required. Exam dates are included in course syllabus. Exam dates are subject to change; changes are announced in class. There will be no make-up exams for this course. A grade of zero will be awarded for missed exams. Exams grades can be reviewed with me WITHIN 15 days after you receive your exam grade.

In order to take the tests and the final exam you must install Respondus LockDown Browser using ONLY the following the link: https://download.respondus.com/lockdown/download.php?id=953813111

The tests and the final exam are going to be available ONLY on the specified time in the schedule and you will only be able to access them if you are using Respondus LockDown browser. You must close all the browsers and even outlook in order to use Respondus LockDown browser. Once you launch the software, if you still have any other programs running, it will ask you to close them. Afterwards you will see the same MDC blackboard log in as you usually see on a regular browser. You will enter the same credentials that you use to log into Blackboard and once you are inside, you will see your classes. You will have to choose the class and once in the class, you will see the assignment under the content folder that reads “Online Tests” in the upper left side of your screen. All tests are scheduled during class time. If you do not access the test on the assigned date and time you will be granted the GRADE of 0. Respondus LockDown browser also works on an iPad if you decide to take the exam with it. Here are some videos on what lockdown browser is and how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuX8WoeAycs&feature=youtu.be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOyS2SHdl4I Important Note on Class Behavior: 1. Only non-graphing calculators are to be used in exams. 2. Cameras, recording devices, cell phones, graphing calculators, earphones, etc. are not permitted at any time during exams. 3. If I observe any of these devices you will be asked to leave the room and you will automatically earn the grade of 0 for the exam. 4. Failure to follow this strict order regarding electronic devices will result in disciplinary action for insubordination. Negative or unacceptable class conduct includes but is not limited to: (i) using Bluetooth, ipod or other electronic communication device not related to the class (ii) cell phone ringing during class (let me know of emergencies); (iii) taking or making calls while class is in session (iv) habitually coming in after class session has started; (v) entering through the front door instead of the back door after class session has started; (vi) failing to cooperate in group assignments; (vii) uncivil attitude/behavior toward anyone in class; (viii) any other conduct/attitude that I consider to be negative class participation. If you repeatedly show in class a negative or unacceptable class conduct the instructor reserves the right to DROP the student from the course.

Cheating is absolutely not tolerated. In the event that I determine that you cheated, you will incur severe penalties as outlined in Miami Dade College Student’s Rights & Responsibilities Handbook including earning an ‘F’ grade for the entire course. I require you to please review and acquaint yourself with the relevant sections.
