Offensive or disruptive content is forbidden in this course and on any associated web site like Zoom, Canvas, etc.If you submit work that is not your own then you are subject to a failing grade in the course. Attend online discussion sections and participate in group problem solving. In every chapter, I identify the problems that aren't helpful.Р”В«. Work every problem in the book, unless I say otherwise. If you want to do well on my exams then practice solving problems.Р”Р„. Work Problems: The purpose of this class is to teach you to use fundamental principles (e.g., octet rule, electronegativity, resonance, sterics, electrostatics, stereochemistry) to SOLVE PROBLEMS of reactivity and structure. Attend every lecture and every discussion sectionР”Сћ. Later in the course I'll announce an additional extra-modular Quiz worth 1%.Р”РЋ. The Quiz(zes) in each module count for 1% of your course grade (9 x 1% = 9%) that means all the mini-Quizzes in Module 0 count essentially as one quiz. I will be assigning WEEKLY Canvas Quizzes so you can check your knowledge. You should work every problem in the book, except those indicated in each module. Back then we covered different material, (e.g., Ch 28 instead of Ch 18) in Chem 51C. Note that Chem 51C covered different chapters of the Smith textbook back in 20. They are not intended as a replacement for book or Sapling problems. These old exams are offered to give a sense of question format and general exam procedures. Old exams from 2014, 2015, 2019 are available under Files in the subfolder called 'Old Exams'. There will be absolutely NO make-up exams - sorry. You will automatically receive a grade of A(Р’В±) if you make 90.00% of the points or above on the final.Р”В®xams are closed book, but molecular models are allowed. The distribution of course letter grades will be roughly: 20% A, 30% B, 33% C, 17% D or F, with roughly equal numbers of pluses and minuses. Grading may be curved upward but not downward.

Midterm Exam IV 20% - Wed, Dec 1, Ch 21,22Р”Р‡inal Exam 30% - Mon, Dec 6, Ch 16 + all previous chaptersР”В¬ourse Grades: Course grades will be determined at the end of the course based on the total points earned in the course. Midterm Exam III 20% - Fri, Nov 12, Ch 19,20 Midterm Exam II 20% - Fri, Oct 29, Ch 17,18 Grading: The lowest midterm exam grade will be automatically dropped.

Remote Discussion Section will be held Tuesday, 5 pm,.

You may attend any Discussion Section as long as there is room.

We don't provide answer keys to these worksheets you must attend discussion to get the answers. One student from each group will be selected at random to present the team's answer and discuss it with the class.

At the beginning of discussion section the TA will break you up into teams and assign a problem to each team. Blank copies of worksheets will be posted in Canvas>Files>DS Problem Sets Blank. Paper copies of discussion section worksheets will be available in discussion section. Teamwork and communication skills are an essential part of my class.It will probably take about a day for me to process my videos and post them on YuJa.Р”Р‡illable lecture templates for each chapter are available in canvas Files so you can spend less time writing and more time listening. I'll be posting my Fall 2021 lectures online, probably through YuJa. Lectures: Class activities are in-person, per University of California guidelines, in DBH 1100. If you choose to use the 5th edition, then you are responsible for translating differences between the two editions. The chapter numbers and problem numbers are different between these two editions. All previous quarters of my Chem 51C courses, videos, or any content you find on the web refers to the 5th edition of Smith Organic Chemistry. You are responsible for ALL the material in these chapters, unless I say otherwise. Textbook: Janice Gorzynski-Smith Organic Chemistry, 6th Ed.Р’В Chapters 16-23
