This course is the first laboratory in a fundamental first-year chemistry course, designed for students who have completed CHEM 1503: Chemical Bonding and Organic Chemistry. The topics include a review of laboratory safety and equipment, chemical changes, laboratory techniques and measurements, separation of mixtures, properties of gases, liquids and solids, physical and chemical properties, identification of metallic ions, ionic reactions, stoichiometry of a precipitation reaction, caloric content of food, and water-hardness determination. Students are expected to become familiar with these topics, and demonstrate their proficiency in various laboratory techniques. Prerequisites: There are no prerequisites for the course but Chemistry 11, Chemistry 12, Pre-calculus 12, Foundations of Mathematics 12 are recommended. Corequisite: CHEM 1503 (or equivalent 1st year general chemistry course). ***This course is only available for registration to students residing in Canada***
