The Chemistry 1552 Honors course is using a new book this term: "Chemistry: A Molecular Approach" by Niva Tro. We will also be doing additional readings from Principles of Chemistry by Munowitz. Copies of the latter are on reserve in the library. The course is divided into four units with an exam at the end of each unit.

The lectures are based on the PowerPoint presentations shown below. For those wishing to preview the lecture material or review it later, notes are available in two forms. The first version is the same as that used in class and is viewable within Internet Explorer; it cannot be downloaded to your own computer and PowerPoint is not required to view these files. However, because of difficulties experienced viewing these presentations over slow (dial-up) connections, stripped down versions with fewer graphics and features are offered in .ppt format for downloading to the user's computer. For those wanting printed notes or outlines, these stripped .ppt versions can be printed using PowerPoint. If you don't have PowerPoint at home, you can print them in the library or computing centre for a small fee per page. Please note that the availability of the notes online should not be regarded as a substitute for attending class and listening to the lectures. PowerPoint slides by their nature contain minimal content but focus on key words and concepts that require additional material to make meaningful.

The lower half of each cell in column three provides problems and exercises related to content. Most of the problems have complete worked solutions if you get stuck.
