CHEM 120 Week 7 Chemistry Project; Group Project Presentation

Group Project Power Point Presentation This week you need to get your topic approved for the group project due in Week 7. Please review the requirements for this assignment now. Week 7 Assignment Requirements Instructions: Students will work in groups of 2-4 students. Working as a group, students will pick a topic based on course outcomes (COs), research that topic for its connection to nursing/health care. Students may pick a topic from the suggested topics list or instructors may choose to assign specific topics to students. Additionally, students may choose a different topic that is relevant to the COs as long as the faculty approves it.Students must get approval for their chosen topic and format from the instructor. Students will present or submit their project using the format specified by the instructor. Each student must contribute meaningfully to the project and be part of project presentation. The instructor will specify a due date for the project. Additionally, instructors may have additional requirements. Students must check with their instructor regarding the presentation topic, format and any additional requirements. Students are encouraged to start work on this project early in the session. Suggested Formats: 1. PowerPoint or Prezipresentations 2. Model basedpresentation 3. Posterpresentation 4. Creating video to demonstrate/show thetopic 5. Report in MicrosoftWord 6. Creating animation to demonstrate/show thetopic Course Outcomes: 1. Apply the scientific method to propose a hypothesis and set up an experiment including positive and negative controls and appropriate units ofmeasurement. 2. Predict the numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons given the atomic symbol or limited information for a specific isotope of an element and relate them to atomicmass andcharge. 3. Determine chemical names and/or chemical formula for diatomic or simple polyatomic compounds and draw a Lewis structure, construct a molecular geometryand determine the polarity for a covalentcompound. 4. Balance chemical equations, calculate the molar mass of all compounds inthe reaction and demonstrate how mole ratios play a role instoichiometry. 5. Predict how a change in one or more of the parameters of a gas alters dependent gas parameters such as pressure, volume ortemperature. 6. Calculate the concentration and volume of a solution given solute andsolvent parameters. 7. Predict the properties of and identify reduction and oxidation agents as well asacids and bases by analysis of chemical formulas, chemical reactions, and solution pH values. 8. Differentiate the common classes of organic functional groups and identify the appropriate common or IUPAC names, applications, and chemical structures forsimple organiccompounds, 9. Differentiate between the types of radio-active decay at the subatomic leveland provide real-world applications, sources, andrisks. 10. Contrast the synthesis, composition, structure and functions of majorbiological macromolecules and Illustrate the process of flow of geneticinformation. Suggested Project Topics: 1. Linking ADPIE/ADOPIE to the scientific method (CO1) 2. Chemistry and public health effects of the Flint River crisis (CO 6,7) 3. Isotopes in cancer treatment (CO9) 4. Uses of radioisotopes in imaging techniques and importance ofthese techniques (CO 2,9) 5. Use of radioisotopes in diagnosis and therapy (not includingimaging methods) (CO 2,9) 6. Simple ionic compounds in healthcare and their uses (CO3) 7. Why certain molecules are able to cross the blood brain or placentalbarrier or skin while others are not (CO8) 8. Relating stoichiometry to dosage calculations (CO4) 9. Application of the ideal gas laws to gas canisters (CO5) 10. Acidosis and Alkalosis (CO7) 11. Tracking the functional group similarities between a series ofsynthetic drugs and the natural compounds they were based on (CO8) 12. Chemistry of therapeutic drug(s) and how they affect health/humanbody (CO8) 13. Chemistry of recreational drug(s)/chemicals and how theyaffect health/human body (CO9/10) 14. Use of polymers in clinical interventions (CO 8,10) 15. How vitamins and minerals/trace elements affect health/human body (CO3) 16. Chemistry of nutrition (CO10)Selected Topic 17. Looking at the gene sequence that is linked to a genetic disorder (CO10) 18. Gene Therapy (CO10) 19. Other topics as approved byinstructor Grading This assignment will be grading using the below rubric. ALL students from a group must participate in preparation and presentation.
