Chemistry is an inquiry based learning approach to developing the major chemistry concepts. It incorporates laboratory experiments and classroom discussion as well as traditional lectures and hands on activities. The atomic theory, the nature of matter in its various phases, chemical periodicity, and the mole concept are studied early in the course. Among the basic principles included are energy, reaction rates, reaction equilibrium, and characteristics of chemical reactions, acid-base behavior, oxidation-reduction reactions and electrochemistry. Students apply their knowledge of algebra to solve chemistry problems. This course enables students to develop their quantitative skills and their communication skills. Students will be able to demonstrate an understanding of how chemical principles are applied to “real world” problems and processes. Topics in the media and popular culture will be used a platform for discussing chemistry principles. In order to enhance scientific literacy and communication skills, each student will write a research paper and communicate their findings to the class.
