About this course

Understanding Chemistry I for your Newlane credit.

What is Chemistry I?

Chemistry I is an introduction to the substances that make up matter and the changes they undergo. It covers the structure of atoms, how elements combine to form molecules and compounds, how chemical reactions are balanced and measured, and how energy, bonding, gases, and physical properties fit into that picture.

How the course teaches you

Chemistry I is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading weighted at 20% quizzes, 30% assignments, and 50% final exam. As you complete the course, the transcripted 3 credits are the record Newlane reviews for transfer, and Newlane recognizes this course as Natural Sciences GE, which satisfies a general-education requirement.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The chemistry skills in this course help you read data carefully, follow units, and make sense of everyday science questions, which can be useful in work settings and in general problem-solving. At Newlane, the course can count toward Natural Sciences GE in degree plans such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, where general-education credit still matters even if the major is not science-focused.

Skills you walk away with

Use dimensional analysis and unit conversionsBalance chemical equations and solve stoichiometry problemsPredict trends in ionization energy, electronegativity, and atomic radiusDetermine reaction yield and compound compositionApply laboratory techniques and use lab equipment properlyExplain chemical bonding, molecular geometry, and intermolecular forcesInterpret gas behavior with the ideal gas law

Taking this course toward Newlane

After you finish Chemistry I, your transcript is sent for Newlane to review as part of the transfer process. Newlane's registrar applies the course as Natural Sciences GE when it matches their transfer review, which means it fulfills a general-education requirement rather than an elective with no category. That can help reduce the number of Newlane courses you still need in programs like the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy. Newlane allows up to 90 transfer credits total, so this 3-credit course can fit within that ceiling as part of a larger transfer plan.

Who this course is for

This course is a practical option for students who want to move a Newlane degree forward by earning a Natural Sciences GE credit before transferring. It can fit people who are balancing school with work or trying to keep transfer costs manageable, since Newlane accepts up to 90 transfer credits and up to 75% of a bachelor's degree may come from transfer. It is not the right choice if you need a lab-heavy, in-person chemistry sequence that goes beyond a general-education requirement.
