Description

This course covers chemical attraction; valance; radicals; synthesis of a compound; decomposition of a compound; relative activity of elements; factors which effect synthesis; action of a catalyst; types of mixtures; solutions and solvents; identification of acids, bases, and salts; and pH scale and measurement of pH.
At the completion of this course, the student will be able to:

• Describe chemical attraction, valence, and radicals
• Describe synthesis of a compound and decomposition of a compound and factor which affect synthesis
• Explain relative activity of elements
• Predict the action of a catalyst, and how solutions and solvents work
• Demonstrate this knowledge on a fill-in-the blank final exam
