|
| Description for Course: |
The course competency is to analyze the behavior of matter and the transformation of energy using the principles of chemistry. The students will deal with fundamental concepts such as examination of the nature of matter, and calculations involving chemical reactions. The course will also address the concepts of an ideal gas, energy changes in a chemical reaction, rates of reactions, equilibrium of reactions, and experimental verification of chemical laws and principles. The knowledge and skills developed in this course are indispensable to further studies in chemistry. It is therefore a prerequisite to the succeeding college chemistry course, General Chemistry. |

Comic Book Chemistry |
3 - 0 - 3 |
45 |
|
| Description for Course: |
This fun course is designed for non-science students who want to learn about chemistry using facts described in superheroes’ universe. This new course takes an in-depth look at how certain super powers, mystical machines and heroic stunts can actually be possible, and in what extent they can be explained by chemistry. Students will be encouraged to use rational explanation to describe out-of-the-ordinary events impersonated by characters seen in comic books, graphic novels, movies, TV shows, newspapers and more. Students will learn about chemistry and science by reading graphic novels, watching movies, and following the scientific method. From Superman’s Krypton, the Incredible Hulk’s green skin and the Joker’s laughing gas to the Walking Dead’s zombie symptoms, correctly depicted chemistry can be extracted from extraordinary phenomenon. By discerning magic from scientific, a comic book fan can be a science enthusiast! |
