Main Units for CH301
1. Gases
One of the 3 basics forms of matter, gases are an important part of chemistry.Their physical behavior can be modeled and described mathematically.
2. Atomic Theory
The atom is the basic building block of chemistry. Understanding the structure and energetics of the atom is a key to understanding more complicated particles such as molecules.
3. IM Forces
The forces between molecules will govern their physical properties and are a key component to understanding chemical interactions.
4. Thermodynamics
All of our observable science is governed by thermodynamics - which is a study of the energy requirements and demands of matter interaction.
