Description

We will begin the study of general chemistry by exploring the structure of the atom and the nature of the chemical bond and then proceed towards an understanding of molecular geometry. This will lead us to discussions of the periodic table, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, and properties of gases. Time permitting other topics such as thermochemistry and kinetics may be explored.

In the laboratory we will work to develop the skills needed to be successful in a chemistry lab. In particular we will focus on measurements, preparing solutions, titrations, and spectroscopy.
