Description of Chemistry Courses
  • Chemistry is the study of matter, its properties, and how it interacts with other matter. It is a fundamental subject that is essential in understanding the world around us.
Common Things Learned
  • In Chemistry courses, students learn about the properties, structure, and behavior of matter. They learn about the different types of chemical reactions, how to balance chemical equations, and how to calculate the concentrations of different solutions. Students also learn about the basic principles of thermodynamics and how to apply them to chemical reactions. They learn about different types of chemical bonding and how it affects the properties of molecules. Finally, they learn about the different types of organic compounds and their reactions.
Typical Student
  • Typical Chemistry students are those who have an interest in the natural sciences and enjoy solving problems. They have a strong foundation in math and are interested in learning about the world of atoms and molecules. They may be pursuing a career in a field that requires a strong understanding of Chemistry, or they may simply be curious about the subject.
