CHEMISTRY 121 MINIMUM COURSE COVERAGE

Text—Chemistry, 7^th Edition, Zumdahl/Zumdahl

Read all assigned chapters. While all of the assigned reading material is useful in gaining an understanding of chemical principles, some topics will be covered in less detail in the lecture than they are in the text. The assigned homework is designed to give practice on a range of representative problems and to provide some indication of relative emphasis on the various topics within each chapter. Answers to most, but not all, of the assigned problems can be found in the back of the book. Individual lecturers may assign additional readings and/or problems from the text or other sources (for example, the ChemSkill Builder electronic homework system) for which you will be responsible on quizzes and hour exams.

Friday, May 1, 2009, 3:00 – 5:00 p.m.

On the Final Examination you will be responsible for material covered in both the lecture and the laboratory.
