The course emphasizes certain chemical concepts such as quantum mechanics, chemical bonding, gases, solutions, equilibrium, acids and bases, chemical equilibrium, oxidation and reduction, nuclear chemistry, and organic chemistry. This course is designed for biology, premedical, prenursing, preclinical and prehealth students.

Learning Objectives

  • Learn how to think logically and analytically—to use critical thinking skills.
  • Gain an understanding of the basic laws of nature and how scientists discover those laws.
  • Know how to interpret and analyze tabulated and graphical data.
  • Understand how to apply concepts to various chemical systems.

Format
 

This course is offered in an online asynchronous format. There are no set meeting times, however, students follow a weekly schedule and there will be deadlines to meet in terms of course requirements. This course cannot be completed at an accelerated rate.

Students interested in this course without a lab component, please enroll in: CHEM40008 - General Chemistry II


Note on Lab:
 

This course includes a hands on laboratory involving multi-day experiments that the student performs at home.  Except for a few household items, all the materials are included in the lab kit that students must purchase separately from HOL Sciences.

To purchase your lab kit, please use the link provided in the section note.  Please note that due to COVID-19, HOL is experiencing a longer than normal time in processing orders.  We recommend you order your kits at least three weeks before the course begins.
