1. Welcome to the World of Chemistry Yale University Chemistry 113 Chemistry 113 Chemistry 113 Lectures: Prof. Victor S. Batista Discussions: Dr. Iona Black Ms. Brooke Rosenzweig Mr. Robert Snoeberger

2. REGISTRATION Chem 113 students have to register their preferences for a discussion section online as well as in the hard copy card distributed during the first lecture.online Students will be able to register their section or lab preference (1, 2, 3) online by following instructions at the Online Course Information (OCI) website. Preference selection has opened and will close on Friday, Sept. 7 at 12:30 PM. At that time each instructor will be able to assign students according to their preferences for sections. The office staff will upload the section assignments to the Online Course System (OCS) and students will be able to see their section on their course registration sheet.

4. What does Chemistry concern with ? Chemistry is the foundation of all molecular sciences Chemistry provides understanding, prediction and control of the nature and behavior of matter Chemistry is practical and profoundly philosophical HOW CAN SUBSTANCES BE MADE ? HOW DOES MATTER REACT ?! WHAT MATTER IS ?!!

5. Chemistry & Matter Chemistry explores the MACROSCOPIC world — what we can see —Chemistry explores the MACROSCOPIC world — what we can see — to understand the PARTICULATE world we cannot see.to understand the PARTICULATE world we cannot see. EXPERIMENTS provide insights into these worlds beyond what our eyes can actually see!! EXPERIMENTS provide insights into these worlds beyond what our eyes can actually see!! Chem 113 students are strongly encourage to take the lab Chem 116L

6. Chemistry 116LFall 2007 Register in Chem 116L online through the OCSonline through the OCS Placement list will be available online on September 7. Purchase a copy of the lab manual from TYCO (corner of Elm & Broadway), and study the first ten pages. Next week we have orientation and Ex. 1. at 1 pm (for both the 12 noon and 1 pm sections). Everyone should try to attend the orientation on the day they are placed in Chemistry 116L. Wear shoes ! Any questions? Need additional info? Email Dr. G: narasimhan.ganapathi@yale.edu
