CHEM 001B EXAM COVER SHEET 20 multiple choice questions worth 7.5 points each Time: 70 minutes Instructions (read carefully) Write your name, NetID, TA Name, and Section number on the bubble sheet. Make sure to bubble in your exam version (A, B, or C) on the bubble sheet. Bubble in your answer to each question directly on the bubble sheet. Answers written on the exam itself will not be graded. No cell phones, tablets, laptops, or wireless devices other than a calculator are allowed during exam. Use of a prohibited device will result in a zero for the exam. If you need to use the restroom, hand in your cell phone and exam materials to a TA. When time is called, stop writing immediately, and turn in your exam to your specific TA at the front of room. Show your UCR ID to the TA once you hand in your exam. You may rip off this cover page.
