* Precalculus (MATH 1113) as a prerequisite or co-requisite is highly recommended

First course in a two-semester sequence covering the fundamental principles and applications of chemistry designed for science majors. Topics to be covered include composition of matter, stoichiometry, periodic relations, and nomenclature.

This course has a laboratory component that requires a lab kit.

NOTE: Please read this entire statement carefully. This course is taught completely online through eCore. This course will count as area D lab science, but it is generally considered for Science and Engineering majors. It is also for students advancing to pre-professional programs in medicine, dentistry, and pharmacy. Only students from the state of Georgia will be allowed to register. You must attend one mandatory face-to-face meeting for this course. You will have the option to travel either to the University of West Georgia (Carrollton, GA) or Georgia College & State University (Milledgeville, GA) depending on your location.

Laboratory performance will be assessed by the proctored laboratory practical exam. These exams will be administered at the same two regional locations. For the lab portion of the course, students will be required to purchase a lab kit. The instructions for purchasing your kit are in your lab book. You will not be allowed to stay enrolled in the course unless you receive a lab kit. Students will be required to purchase additional laboratory materials (commonly found household items that may be purchased at local retailers for about $30).

CHEM 1212K - Principles of Chemistry II and Lab

Prerequisites:
* CHEM 1211K
