UNIVERSITY OF VICTORIA FINAL EXAMINATION, DECEMBER 2012 CHEMISTRY 101 Fundamentals of Chemistry I Time: 3 hours Hand in only the bubble sheet at the end of the test period (3 hours). Instructors: A01 CRN 11868 Dr. N. Burford A02 CRN 11869 Dr. S. Briggs A03 CRN 11408 Dr. N. Burford Before you begin to write your exam you should find three items on your exam desk: 1) An exam placemat bearing your name. Sign this page. It will be collected during the exam when we check your student ID card. Do not use this page for scrap paper. 2) This exam question paper, containing an unstapled DATA sheet inside the cover page. 3) A bubble sheet (UVic Form A) for recording your answers. PRINT and shade in only your LAST name, then first name, and the last 7 digits of your student ID number on the bubble sheet. i.e. Omit the leading V0. Do NOT include any info about the course, section or date on the bubble sheet. This exam question paper has 17 pages plus a DATA sheet. Students must count the number of pages in this examination paper before starting to write the exam. Report any discrepancy immediately to one of the instructors in the room. This exam consists entirely of multiple choice questions. There are 65 multiple choice questions worth 2 marks each. TOTAL MARKS AVAILABLE = 130 This question paper contains enough blank space for working out the questions. No other paper is permitted. The basic Sharp EL510 calculator is the only one approved for use in Chemistry 101. It is a University Calendar regulation that no student may arrive at the exam after the first half hour and no student may leave the exam in the first half hour. If you finish your exam before 2¾ hours have elapsed then you may hand in your bubble sheet and leave. We ask that students not leave (i.e. that students remain seated) during the last 15 minutes of the exam so that everyone remaining may finish their exams without noise or disturbance. DO NOT BEGIN UNTIL TOLD TO DO SO BY THE INVIGILATOR The answers must be coded on the optical sense form (bubble sheet) using a SOFT PENCIL.
