Class Information
Welcome to Intro Physical Chemistry!
-
My name is Dr. Mike Jezercak and I’ll be your professor for this semester. I am contacting all of you in advance to make you aware of the course website which on my chemistry web, NOT D2L. The page is available through the chemistry website and linked here:
http://www.drjez.com/uco
Once there you can navigate to the Intro Physical Chemistry page and there you will find all the necessary course information including the course syllabus, schedule of chapters and exams along with homework, any ancillary material handed out in lecture and other items you’ll need or find useful during this semester. Please bookmark this page as I also keep updated grades there for you to access.
This course will move along a brisk pace and we will begin immediately on Wednesday. Text and resource costs to you are very important to me and I want to minimize costs as much as possible.
There is no published text required for this course as an extensive set of notes posted in advance constitute the course text. However, should you wish to have an additional resource to have and read through, I recommend that you purchase a used text for a low cost from sources such as Amazon. Suggested texts to consider:
Atkins “Elements of Physical Chemistry” There are many editions available for as low as $5
Chang “Physical Chemistry for the Chemical and Biological Sciences” A more extensive text and better written. Used as low as $25
Please note that I only answer emails through my email address given on the website so, for any communication, please use drjez@uco.drjez.com .
I suggest that you access the website, read the syllabus and download the schedule, first set of notes and the first homework assignment posted there. We will begin this coverage on Wednesday so be ready to start!
I look forward to working with all of you!
The class will have in-class and remote students. As such I will present and record lectures via Teams and have them online for all students. For remote students, all submissions via homework or exams must be in pdf format as per the due date.Notes and homework will be prensented on this website.
Dr. J
