PREREQUISITES: CHM 101
SEMESTER: SECOND SEMESTER

INSTRUCTOR’S NAME: MRS OWOLABI, MRS OLUWADARE

COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course emphasizes on organic chemistry,

hydrocarbons, amines, fats and oil

LEARNING OUTCOME: As a result of the learning experience provided in this

course, the student should be able to: Identify the properties of simple organic
compounds, predict and explain the typical reactions of simple organic
compounds, name and write formulas for simple organic compounds
Identify the characteristic structures of carbohydrates, lipids, fats, vitamins,
proteins.

GRADES: Grades to be used for the candidates who satisfactorily complete the
requirements of a course by the end of the semester are:

Letter Grade Grade Point Mark

A 5 70-100
B 4 60-69
C 3 50-59

F 0 0-44

ASSESMENT SYSTEM;
1. CONTINUOUS ASSESMENT: 40%
2. END OF SEMESTER EXAMINATION:60%
The continuous assessment component consists of take-home assignments,
class quizzes and tests, term papers and project work. This component gives
student the chance to demonstrate their abilities on a wider variety of learning
tasks and a broader variety of work environment than is possible under formal
examination conditions. Attendance is MANDATORY as students with less than
75% attendance will, in line with the university regulation, not be allowed to sit
for the examination. Students are expected to submit assignment as
scheduled.

The class of the degree of a candidate who has successfully completed his/her
course of studies shall be determined as follows:
Cumulative Class of Degree
4.5-5.0 1 = First Class
3.5-4.49 2 = Second Class Upper
2.5-3.49 2 = Second Class Lower
1.5-2.49 3 = Third Class

The list of successful candidates shall be published with the following

classification: First Class Honours, Second Class Honours (Upper and Lower
Division) and Third Class Honours with the names arranged alphabetically.
