For class presentations and discussions, the student should utilize journal
and internet materials. Moreover, the course does not limit the use of
learning materials available at KhazarUniversity library.
This course is based on traditional face-to-face classes
Matter, its types and properties Reactions Valence. Structure of atom.
Periodic Table. Chemical bond. Polarity. Gases liquids and solids.
Thermodynamics Thermochemistry. Catalysis. Acid base theories. Organic
chemistry.
This course is a prerequisite for the Course Chemistry 2 studied further.

Attendance
The students are required to attend all classes as a part of their studies and
those having legitimate reasons for absence (illness, family bereavement, etc.)
are required to inform the instructor.
Tardiness / other disruptions.
If a student is late to the class for more than 10 (ten) minutes, (s)he is not
allowed to enter and disturb the class. However, this student is able to enter
the second double hours without delaying.
Exams
In order to be excused from the exam, the student must contact the dean and
the instructor before the exam. Excuse will not be granted for social activities
such as trips, cruises and sporting events (unless you are participating). The
exams will all be cumulative. Most of the questions on each exam will be
taken from the chapters covered since the last exam.
But some will come from the earlier chapters. In general the coverage will
reflect the amount of the time spend in class on the different chapters.
Withdrawal (pass / fail)
This course strictly follows grading policy of the School of Engineering and
Applied Sciences. Thus, a student is normally expected to achieve a mark of
at least 60% to pass. In this case of failure, he/she will be referred or required
to repeat the course the following term or year.
Cheating / plagiarism
Cheating or other plagiarism during midterm and final examinations will lead
to paper cancellation. In case, the student will automatically get 0 (zero),
without any considerations.
Professional behaviour guidelines
The student shall behave in the way to create favorable academic and
professional environment during the class hours. Unauthorized discussions
and unethical behavior are strictly prohibited.
Use of any electronic devices is prohibited in the classroom. All devices
should be turned off before entering class. This is a university policy and
violators will be reprimanded accordingly
For successful completion of the course, the students shall take an active part
during the class time, raising questions and involving others to discussions.
Learning and Teaching Methods
This course considers active learning process rather than passive one.
