화학 601 - 고급 반응 (6/7) [과학]

This class is designed to provide an introduction to advanced chemical reactions.  Many topics will be covered over this 5-week class that will give the student a basic understanding of acid-base reactions and reduction-oxidation or “REDOX” reactions.  Students will have the opportunity to practice what they learn each week.  

Week 1: Basics of Acid-Base Reactions
-> Video: Acids and Bases
-> Video: pH and pOH
-> Fill in the blank note sheets for each video
-> Practice problems: differences between acid and bases, balancing acid-base reactions, calculating pH and pOH, determining if a solution is acidic or basic

Week 2: Acid/Base Strengths and Titrations
-> Video: Acid/Base Strength
-> Video: Titrations
-> Fill in the blank note sheets for the video
-> Practice problems: determine the relative strengths of acids and bases, determine the equivalence and end point of a titration, titration calculations

Week 3: REDOX reactions
-> Video: Reduction-Oxidation Reactions
-> Video: Balancing REDOX Reactions
-> Fill in the blank note sheets for each video
-> Practice problems: determine which chemicals are oxidized and which are reduced, determine oxidation numbers, balance REDOX reactions

Week 4: Galvanic Cells
-> Video: Galvanic Cells
-> Fill in the blank note sheets for the video
-> Practice problems: determine anode and cathode, calculate galvanic cell reactions

Week 5: Batteries and Solar Cells
-> Video: Batteries
-> Video: Solar Cells
-> Fill in the blank note sheets for each video
-> Practice problems: describe batteries and how they work, describe solar cells and how they work

This is a flexible schedule course, meaning that there are no live meetings. Each week new videos, notes pages, and practice problems will be posted to the classroom. The completed practice problems will be uploaded to the classroom (either scanned or a picture taken) for feedback from the teacher.   There will be a discussion thread where students can ask for help from the class and the teacher.  Each week an experiment will be posted that follows the lesson material.  

To get the most out of this course, the teacher will provide notes pages with blanks for the students to fill in as they watch the videos.  Students are expected to complete the practice problems each week as the material builds upon itself weekly.
 
The teacher is always be available via message (either in the classroom discussion or private message) and will typically reply within 12 hours, but never more than 24 hours unless extenuating circumstances.
