Chemistry 101 is the first half of an introductory two-semester course primarily designed for those students who plan to continue their chemical education beyond the elementary level. We will find, however, that Chemistry 101 is a valuable experience not only for aspiring chemists, chemical engineers, medical doctors, dentists, pharmacists, and so forth, but also for thoughtful students of all disciplines. You will also discover that chemistry is a central science.
It is highly recommended that you come to class so that you take full advantage of the resources available to you. You are responsible for all material and announcements presented in lecture, which will begin promptly at 9:00 AM. About halfway through lecture, you will have a short break (10-15 min), after which lecture will resume until 12:10 PM
According to UMBC regulations, a course cannot be taken more than two times. Also, CHEM 101 cannot be repeated if you have earned a C or better in CHEM 102. If you fall into either of these categories, it is highly recommended that you drop the course. Transcripts will be checked and violators will be removed from the course. This is your warning!
