Objective:
To introduce students to basic principles and topics of organic and biological chemistry.
Description:
This is the second in a two-semester sequence of introductory chemistry. Nursing and dental hygiene
students planning to pursue a baccalaureate degree may need to enroll in CHEM 1152. The primary topics
are basic functional groups and reactions of organic molecules. Additionally, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins,
and enzymes are introduced.
Requirements:
CHEM 1151 and CHEM 1151L or CHEM 1211 and CHEM 1211L each with a C or better, are prerequisites for this course. The student must be prepared to supply evidence in the form of a grade report or a
transcript that these pre-requisites have been met. Any student who cannot show evidence that they meet
these pre-requisites will be removed from the class roll. CHEM 1152L (lab) is a co-requisite.
Textbook & Materials:
“General, Organic and Biological Chemistry: Structures of Life” (3rd Ed., Karen C. Timberlake, Prentice
Hall, 2010). Georgia Perimeter College Edition of Vol. II (for CHEM 1152) available.
“MasteringChemistry” (an online homework system; www.masteringchemistry.com) are required;
Course ID, CHEM1152S200S2013.
Attendance:
Students are expected to attend all class meetings. In the event of absence it is the students'
responsibility to obtain assignments and information covered during the absence. A grade of W will be
assigned if the student officially withdraws by mid-point. After mid-point withdrawal will result in a F grade
unless a hardship waiver is granted by the department head. It is the student's responsibility to complete
withdrawal through the registrar's office in the event that becomes necessary. Withdrawal from lecture
automatically requires withdrawal from the lab and vice versa. A roll sheet will be circulated at the
beginning of class. A student who arrives late should stop by at the end of class and sign it. Topics of a
missed class, due to school closing from inclement weather (tune to WSB, AM 750 kHz, or Channel 2), will
be automatically assigned as a take-home project.
Tests:
There will be four class tests and a final exam. The final exam is required. There are no make-up tests.
The final course grade is obtained by averaging the three highest class exams, the Online Homework and the
final which weighs twice of the hour exams. If one of the class exams is missed, that exam becomes the
dropped exam. The grading scale is the standard scale with 90-100 = A (Excellent), 80-89 = B(Good), 7079 = C(Fair), etc.
Three Best Hour Exams:
MasteringChemistry (10 Chapters):
Final Exam:
Total
3 x 100 pts = 300 pts
= 75 pts
= 125 pts
500 pts
.
A. Each Hour Exam consists of about 30 Multiple Choice Questions and 1-2 big Write-Out Questions.
1
Sources: (1) Textbook (the Sample, Practice, & EOC Exercises) and Lecture Notes ( ~70%),
(2) Applied questions (~30%)
B. Bring #2 pencils and the Scantron Forms. (Old marks must be completely erased).
C. Extra points: 15 pts for a good attendance; Catching mistakes, 1~3pts/catch (max.: 5pts).
Time requirements
The amount of time outside of class needed to be successful in this class varies with background,
interest, motivation, intellect, and study skills. To be successful, expect 6 or more hours per week outside of class
to study and do homework. Students must develop skill in solving problems and this can only be obtained by
practicing and doing homework. The lab grade is separate and requires additional time. Expect 3 to 6 hours to
prepare for lab sessions, calculate results, and prepare reports. Careful attention and good time management
can reduce the time required outside of class.
Disruptive actions:
Students are expected to act with respect for a professor and other class mates. Arriving late for class
can be disruptive. In the event of a late arrival you enter and take a seat quietly. Talking to others during
lecture/discussion prevents others from hearing the proceedings. Leaving class during session is very
disruptive and should occur only in an emergency. Food and drink are not allowed in the classroom.Cheating and Plagiarism:
Refer to the Student Handbook, or College Catalog for Academic Honesty Policy.
Incomplete:
An incomplete (I) grade is for special situations. If a student misses the final exam due to illness, or
other special circumstance, request for an I grade can be petitioned. Documentation is required confirming
the difficult situation. The I grade must be made up within one semester.
