Dr. Showalter's Lecture Notes
Lecture notes for Dr. Showalter's sections of Chemistry 110 will be posted here for viewing or downloading as they become available. To view a set of notes from a campus computer lab simply double click on any one of the underlined lectures. From other computers see the instructions provided below this table.
NOTE: these are not complete notes. Sections are intentionally left blank. You should bring the notes to class and fill in missing information during lecture. I also advise that you bring your periodic table and equation sheet.
Please be advised that I have not posted the Recitation Worksheets on this page. You may download them here.
