Learning Outcomes
1.Textbooks containing up-to-date information on atomic models and atomic structure provide basic theoretical and practical information supported by other sources and use this information.
2.Gain general knowledge about the periodic properties of elements, learn the formula language, make stoichiometric calculations, use and transfer them in the field of practical chemistry.
3.Learns chemical bonds and molecular structures and can use them in the field of chemistry and on an industrial scale.
4.Learns the crystal structures of molecules, can calculate, interpret and classify their lattice energies.
5.The student learns the concepts of acid and base, determines the behavior of molecules, and can use them in the field of chemistry and industrial scale.
6.Learns and analyzes the physical and chemical properties of the main group elements (nonmetals), explains their molecular properties, and prepares for synthesis.
7.Have and can share a solid basic knowledge of the important chemical reactions of inorganic substances.
