Course Description: This course is a continuation of the principles taught in Chemistry 1013 covering
the organic chemistry, the solid state, properties of solutions, kinetics, equilibria, acids and bases,
coordination chemistry, thermodynamics and electrochemistry. (Three hours of lectures, 1 hour of
tutorial and 3 hours of labs per week). Prerequisite: Chemistry 1013
Course Objectives: The successful student in this course will be able to identify the central role that
chemistry plays within science and will continue to develop a Chemical Worldview. Within the context of
this course this will include:
- The measurement and recording of chemical data arising from experiments
- The extension of the quantum atomic model to allow modeling of molecules and ions
- Development of the kinetic molecular theory to allow an understanding of the phases of matter
- Understanding the dynamic relationship of solute and solvent in the behaviour of solutions
- Creation of a unifying theme of dynamic equilibrium to explain solute and acid-base properties
- Recognition that chemistry is the movement of electrons by exploring oxidation-reduction
reactions and electrochemistry
- Develop a complete thermodynamic view of chemistry to include entropy and free energy
- Complete our understanding of the balanced chemical equation to include the measurement and
understanding of reaction rates.

Course Policy on Wireless Devices: The nature of the course content and the evaluation of the
individual student’s knowledge requires that this course have a strict policy on wireless devices
(laptop computers, cell phones, handheld computers and all similar devices). In general, students
should not bring wireless devices to any class, tutorial, laboratory or examination unless directed to do
so by the Instructor. Students found to be in possession of a wireless device without permission
during a quiz, test or examination will forfeit possession of the device for examination and will be given
an automatic mark of 0% on the quiz, test or examination (even if the device is turned off and a
subsequent examination of the devices connection log reveals that the device was not used during the
quiz, test or examination). Exemptions from this policy may only be given to students that have a
documented reason for requiring the device. Such exemptions MUST be granted BEFORE any device
is brought to an evaluation event.
EXAMS: The final exam will test the entire material from the beginning of the course to the end.
Approximately 10% of the final exam and tests will be drawn from the laboratories (both conceptual
and calculation). The Instructor reserves the right to substitute or purge the memory of any
programmable calculator brought to a test or exam. NOTE: You must have a grade of 50% or better
on the final exam or an average on the tests of 50% or better to pass this course. Failure to pass
either the tests or the final exam will result in a maximum grade of F+(45%).Only medical or
extraordinary, documented personal excuses will be accepted for failure to attend a test. You will not
be provided with any formulae but will be allowed to bring the Papertech, “Chemical Periodic Table” to
quizzes, tests and the exam or you will be provided with an alternate periodic table. There should be
no marks on the periodic table other than your name. For the tests and the exam you may bring one
sheet of letter sized graph paper on which you may handwrite anything that you choose in the
graphed space. The page will be marked as a 5% bonus mark on each test based on utility, clarity,
aesthetics and content.
Late Policy: subject to a deduction of 10% per school day until the work is reviewed in lecture/tutorial
or lab or one week (whichever comes first) when it will be assigned a mark from 0 – 45 %.
Subjective Evaluation: based on attendance, preparation and participation. Attendance is
considered normative for all students and for any absence that the student would like accommodated
it is the student’s responsibility to present appropriate documentation immediately upon return to
campus. Any assignments, laboratory reports etc. missed are due immediately upon return to campus
(if the student is absent for a documented reason for several days then the due date will be offset by
the number of excused days) Any student with more than 25% unexcused absences from class (6
lectures) will not be allowed to write the final exam.
At the end of the semester students may voluntarily submit an organized lecture binder containing
their lecture notes to improve their subjective evaluation mark (if it is to their benefit), students may
also complete the occasional extra credit project to increase their subjective evaluation mark.
LABORATORY: Students will be allowed only two absences from the lab (with documented medical
or extraordinary excuse) each semester. Missed labs nevertheless must be completed or replaced in
consultation with the Instructor immediately on return from an accommodated absence at the
student’s initiative. If you do not pass the laboratory component of this course [at least 15/30] the
highest grade issued to you will be a F+ (45%) regardless of class performance.
The laboratory mark [30 % of the final mark for the course] will be composed of a 20 % mark based on
the grade sheets and reports, a 3 % mark for the laboratory notebook binder (to be collected at the
final lecture and marked for completeness) and a 7 % subjective evaluation (based on preparedness,
efficiency and participation).
NOTE: Students that have a physical or medical condition (including allergies) that would affect their
ability to participate or complete the laboratories need to inform the professor immediately. Any
information voluntarily provided by the student would be held in the strictest confidence and is
requested solely to create the safest possible working environment for the student and his or her
laboratory partners.
