CHEM 1500 - Concepts in Chemistry


Introduction to general chemistry for students who have majors requiring CHEM 1510 but who need a solid review of concepts. No prior study of chemistry is assumed. Topics include measurement, properties of matter, fundamental atomic theory, the mole, stoichiometry, and related calculations.

Requisites: MATH 1200 or concurrent or Math placement level 2 or higher and WARNING: not CHEM 1210 or 1510
Credit Hours: 4
Repeat/Retake Information: May be retaken two times excluding withdrawals, but only last course taken counts.
Lecture/Lab Hours: 3.0 lecture, 3.0 laboratory
Grades: Eligible Grades: A-F,WP,WF,WN,FN,AU,I
Learning Outcomes:
  • Students will be able to perform appropriate mathematical manipulations in scientific contexts.
  • Students will be able to predict the general and physical properties of matter.
  • Students will be able to describe the basic model of the atom and predict bonding interactions for various elements.
  • Student will be able to apply naming rules to common compounds.
  • Students will be able to balance chemical equations and calculate amounts of chemicals involved in a reaction using molar mass and molar concentration.
  • Students will be able to perform calculations using concentration units.
  • Students will be able to predict the products created in standard general chemistry reactions.
  • Students will be able to perform basic laboratory procedures in a chemistry laboratory.
