LEARNING OUTCOMES: TBR
Mandated Generic Liberal Arts Outcomes
1. Conduct an experiment, collect and analyze data, and interpret results in a laboratory setting.
2. Analyze, evaluate and test a scientific hypothesis.
3. Use basic scientific language and processes, and be able to distinguish between scientific and nonscientific explanations.
4. Identify unifying principles and repeatable patterns in nature, the values of natural diversity, and
apply them to problems or issues of a scientific nature.
5. Analyze and discuss the impact of scientific discovery on human thought and behavior.
Academic outcomes: A student should be able to:
1. demonstrate
basic understanding of atomic theory
2. write chemical forumulas from names of compounds and balance chemical equations
and perform basic stoichiometry calculations
3. determine the arrangement of electrons in atoms and ions using an energy level
diagram of sublevels
4. give the basic ideas of chemical bonding
5. give the relationships of atoms of elements on the periodic table
6. give electronic structure of atoms and ions
7. describe the basic types of molecular geometry and identify molecules of each type
8. define the concentration of solution in terms of molarity, weight percent, mass/volume percent and
volume/volume percent
9. calculate pH form either hydrogen ion or hydroxide ion concentration

DISABILITY STATEMENT:
If, because of a documented disability, you require assistance or reasonable accommodations to
complete assigned course work (such as modifications in testing, readers, special equipment, etc.) you
must register with Disability Support Services and notify your instructor within the first two weeks of
the semester. Disability Support is located in the Office of Student Development & Testing (U118, 423478-6217 or 423-472-7141 ext 217).
WITHDRAWAL INFORMATION:
Last day to withdraw from a course with a "W", - Mar. 26, 2003
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., holiday Jan. 20
Spring break - March 10 - 14
Last day of classes - May 2
Evaluation week - May 5 - May 8
ACADEMIC INTEGRITY:
Cleveland State students are required, as a condition of good standing and continued enrollment, to
conduct themselves properly in class. Such proper behavior includes academic honesty, civility and
respect for others and private property. Please refer to the Student Handbook portion of the catalog for
further information.
OTHER: A scientific calculator is needed for mathematical computations. Essential functions on a
calculator are: log, square root, power/roots, and exponential notation. Also other study aids are
available, but not required.
To help maintain the appearance and safety of the laboratory, 2% of each laboratory experiment grade will be
based on the following:
1. Keeping the chemicals, glassware and any materials used during the exercise returned to their proper
place. Glassware and equipment obtained from shelves should be cleaned and returned to proper place.
Glassware and equipment from the student laboratory desks, should be cleaned and returned to desk
drawer and work area should be cleaned and nothing left in sinks or on sink ledges.
2. Do not put any solid material (including paper towels, match sticks, boiling chips, glass shards, etc.) into
the laboratory sinks. ONLY LIQUIDS IN THE SINKS AND DRAINS
3. Wear safety glasses at all times (including before the beginning of each experiment and after you finish)
while you are in the laboratory.
4. Keep you assigned work area clean and free of debris.
5. Do not put chemicals in your draw unless your instructor directs you to do so. Extra equipment
(graduates, iron rings, thermometers, crucibles, & extra test tubes) should not be kept in drawers!!
