ISO 9001:2000 Certification Process Management Meeting Agenda

Course Content
Each unit will include a unit plan outline, an introduction, notes, explanations,
demonstrations / labs / simulations, worksheets, quizzes, a unit review, and a unit test.
The tentative unit test schedule is as follows (Note that the schedule is based upon daily
classes of 65 minutes and is subject to change to accommodate unplanned events and
student needs.):

The following gives you an outline of some of the key issues covered in each of the six units.
1. Atomic Structure - Chemical Bonding - Thermochemistry
Atomic Structure: historical development of atomic structure, the Quantum
Mechanical Model, electron configurations, periodic table properties
Bonding: Ionic and covalent bonding, electro-negativity and bond dipoles, shapes
of molecules and molecular polarity
Thermochemistry: exothermic & endothermic reactions, Hess’s Law (heats of
reaction), bond energy, spontaneous & non-spontaneous reactions, entropy (a
measure of disorder), Gibb’s free energy.
2. Kinetics
Scope: collision theory, factors which affect the rate of chemical reactions,
activation energy and heat of reaction, reaction mechanisms
3. Equilibrium
Scope: The nature of equilibrium, the equilibrium constant, Le Chatelier’s
Principle, solubility rules, solubility equilibrium
4. Acids and Bases
Scope: the Arrhenius definition, the Bronsted-Lowry definition, pH, acid-base
neutralization, dissociation, titration
5. Electrochemistry
Scope: redox reactions, activity series, voltaic (galvanic) cells, electrode
potential, voltaic vs. electrolytic cells, corrosion
