To enable students to acquire a fundamental understanding of organic and biological chemical principles.
Each student will be able to competently discuss the concepts and principles discussed throughout the term.
Each student will be able to competently discuss the concepts and solve problems relating to: alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and aromatics; oxygen, sulfur, and halogen compounds; amines; aldehydes and ketones; carboxylic acids; amino acids and proteins; enzymes and vitamins; biochemical energy; and nucleic acids.
The OSU Bookstore may stock all course materials as a bundle.

Exams 1 and 2
Two midterm exams (Exams 1 and 2) will be administered during the course. These exams will contain problems similar to those discussed in class, encountered on the worksheets, encountered on the problem sets, and seen in ChemSkills. These exams are administered during the 50 minute lecture periods. Because exams are promptly marked and returned to students, no make-up exams can be administered. A missed exam will receive a score of zero--see scoring policy below.
Exam Supplies: Bring THREE number two pencils, a calculator without a cover, a 3" x 5" notecard with handwritten notes on both sides, your name and your TA name on the back side, and a good eraser to each exam. If you bring notes, papers, or books to the exam, place them in a sealed pack and place the pack at the front of the classroom. You will be provided with a periodic table.
The Final Exam
Please be on time. A late student may disturb the other students. The final exam is comprehensive and will be administered during the 110 minute period. A missed final exam will receive a score of zero.
Exam Supplies: Bring THREE number two pencils, a calculator without a cover, a 3" x 5" notecard with handwritten notes on both sides, your name and TA name on the back side, and a good eraser to the final exam. If you bring notes, papers, or books to the exam, place them in a sealed pack and place the pack at the front of the classroom. You will be provided with a periodic table.
Problem Sets
Problems from within and the end of each chapter have been recommended. These problems will not be graded, however, your instructor, the teacher's assistant, or a Mole-Hole TA will be excited to work through any problem at your request.
GOB ChemSkills
Problems from the software package GOB ChemSkills have been assigned. A score of 75% is needed to receive full-credit. Scores lower than 75% will be prorated. It is the responsibility of the student to complete and submit the assignments on time.
Students with documented disabilities who may need accommodations, who have any emergency medical information the instructor should know of, or who need special arrangements in the event of evacuation, should make an appointment with the instructor as early as possible, no later than the first week of the term.
Each student will be able to competently discuss the concepts and solve problems relating to: matter and measurement; the language of chemistry; stoichiometry; solutions and concentration; atomic structure; electron configuration and the periodic table; and chemical bonds.
Your success in Chemistry 130 is very important to me! Visit us (Dr. Nafshun, CH 130 TAs, Mole-Hole TAs) during office hours!
Your success in Chemistry may be dependent on the amount of time you devote to the mastery of the material we discuss during the term. Chemistry 130 is a four credit course. Generally, one credit is given for three hours per week--in and out of class--of work. We meet for lecture two hours per week, recitation one hour per week, and laboratory two hours per week We recommend you work on Chemistry 130 outside of class seven hours per week. The following table is provided to help you gauge your study time. Enter the hours you spend on Chemistry 130 each day and total them up for the week.
