• FROM THE DIRECTOR OF GENERAL CHEMISTRY
• I. Classroom and Testing Modifications
• Any student eligible for classroom and/or
  testing modifications should discuss this
  immediately with the Course Supervisor. Such
  students must be registered with Adaptive
  Programs in the Office of the Dean of Students
  before classroom accommodations can be provided.
• Attendance
• Please read about this in the syllabus
• Note that there is no such thing as a "University
  Approved Absence", therefore this course does not
  recognize any attempt to use this phrase as
  blanket approval for exam, lecture, laboratory or
  recitation absences.
• If you have an illness or other emergency that
  affects your attendance, please contact the
  General Chemistry Office at 494-5250.

• TEACHING LABORATORY POLICIES
• DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY
• PURDUE UNIVERSITY
• GOGGLES
• For your safety, complete safety goggles (not
  safety glasses) must be worn in the laboratory at
  all times, including the day of check-out.
  Safety goggles may be purchased at the local
  bookstores or from the PLU goggle sale (outside
  WTHR 200, fall semester only). There are NO
  exceptions.
• APPROPRIATE DRESS
• Students should be appropriately dressed in the
  laboratory at all times, including check-out.
  Appropriate clothing covers the body from the

COURSE POLICIES
I. Attendance Students are expected to attend
ALL lectures, recitations and scheduled
laboratories. Lectures Tuesdays and
Thursdays at 1130 and 1230 in WTHR 200.
A CPSrf pad, by eInstruction, is required
for each lecture. Laboratory Chemistry 115 is
a laboratory course. Attendance in laboratory
is mandatory. Before the beginning of the lab
period students must read the experiment and
prepare an outline. Failure to be on
time with a prepared Lab Notebook will result
in dismissal from lab (cannot stay to work in
the lab that day), un-excused, with a zero
for the lab. Students who are not in
attendance for more than 2 labs (unexcused
absences) do not meet the minimum course
standards and consequently will receive a grade
of "F" in the course.
12
Exams Exam I Wed., January 30, 2008 700 -
800 pm Hall of Music. Exam II Wed, March 5,
2008 830 - 930 pm Hall of Music. Exam III
Mon., April 7, 2008 830 - 930 pm Hall of
Music.
There are no Make-up Exams in Chemistry 115
13
IX. Course Instructors. There are many places
to go for help in this course. All CHM 115 TA's
are available for office hour appointments in
WTHR 116. They will also hold scheduled office
hours the day before and the day of the exams to
answer questions and provide help. If problems
arise which cannot be handled by your TA, you may
see the Course Supervisor, Joyce Lytle, in BRWN
1144E. If problems occur which cannot be
handled by your TA or the Course Supervisor, you
may schedule an appointment to see the Professor.
14
X. Grading Your course grade will be based on
the following collective scores.
You are guaranteed a grade of "F" if you earn 50
or less of the total points and/or are absent
(unexcused) from three (3) or more labs.

• The Chemistry 115 WEB CT web site is available at
  http//www.chem.purdue.edu/chm115
• You should see CHM 115 (Spring 2008) listed
  there.
• 2. Please check the website often for updates,
  course lectures, homework assignments, etc.
• 3. If you have any problems or questions about
  this, email the web master, Joyce
  (jalytle_at_purdue.edu). Be sure to provide the
  course number you are in (CHM 115), your first
  and last name, and your PUID number, your 4 digit
  division/section number along with the problem or
  question.

What is Chemistry? Chemistry is the study of
matter - synthesis analysis I will explain
concepts, fundamental laws and scientific
theories that help us understand at a molecular
level the basis of chemical compounds chemica
l reactions physical states and
changes energy
19
First let me give you a brief picture tour of
some of the highlights of the field of chemistry.

• To do this, Ill choose 5 FOCUS AREAS
• Energy (hydrogen economy)
• Environment (environmental chem.)
• Nanotechnology (new materials)
• Drug Discovery (pharma)
• Healthcare (biochem)
• I will return to these areas for examples
  throughout the course, and hopefully show you how
  practicing scientists discover and understand new
  information in these areas.
