Chemistry
Course Description
This introductory chemistry course explores the fundamental principles governing the composition, structure, and properties of matter. Students will learn about the classification of substances, chemical reactions, and how these concepts apply to everyday life and various industries.
What You Will Learn
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
- Differentiate between elements, compounds, and mixtures by examining their chemical symbols and formulas.
- Calculate the relative formula mass of reactants and products and apply the mole concept to determine the mass of a substance needed for a specific reaction.
- Identify at least five common laboratory apparatuses and explain their specific functions in a lab setting, demonstrating proper and safe usage.
- Design and experiment to separate a given mixture and accurately explain the scientific principles behind each method using appropriate separation techniques.
- Examine the periodic table to predict the type of chemical bond (covalent, ionic, or metallic) that will form between two given elements, providing a clear explanation of the electron interactions involved.
