Modalities
Chemistry: An introduction to chemistry including structure and bonding, the periodic chart, chemical reactivity, states of matter, solutions, and nuclear reactions.
Lab: Enhance the student's knowledge of chemistry laboratory techniques, to illustrate the importance of chemistry in everyday life.
Materials
Chemistry: Atoms First
The intention of “atoms-first” involves a few basic principles: first, it introduces atomic and molecular structure much earlier than the traditional approach.
