Critical Thinking
CLO 1: 1.0 Students will understand the Scientific Method, describe the structure and components of atoms, and correlate the design of the periodic table to periodic trends and physical and chemical properties of elements.
CLO 2: 2.0 Students will be able to explain the main types of chemical bonds and how they are formed; predict and draw structures for simple ionic and covalent compounds, including those containing common polyatomic ions; name, write and interpret chemical formulas, and write balanced chemical equations.
CLO 3: 3.0 Students will be able to classify matter, describe and compare the three different states of matter, detail the transitions among them, understand when energy is being released or absorbed in these transitions, distinguish between the physical and chemical properties in matter and the physical and chemical changes that matter undergoes, demonstrate an understanding of the metric system used to measure properties of matter.
CLO 4: 4.0 Students will define terms that are pertinent to solutions and mixtures; use the concept of percent concentration in solutions; recognize components of aqueous chemistry, including properties of water, solutions, and acids and bases; understand the concept of pH and buffers; and identify various types of reactions such as acid-base, precipitation, and combustion reactions.
CLO 5: 5.0 Students will recognize components of gaseous chemistry.
