Course Description
This course presents a comprehensive overview of fundamental chemistry concepts, with particular emphasis on those that are identified as competency goals in the Standard Course of Study. The course will follow an inquiry-based approach, and demonstrate the acquisition of scientific knowledge through the interpretation of experimental data. It is designed for postgraduate students who will learn types of matter, measurements, properties of substances; atoms and atomic theory, components of the atom, introduction to the periodic table, molecules and ions, formulas and naming ionic compounds, the mole, mass relations, measurements on gases, the ideal gas law, gas law calculations, stoichiometry of gaseous reactions, quantum numbers, electron configurations in atoms, polarity, principles and measurements of heat flow, calorimetry, thermo-chemical equations, enthalpies of formation.
