Course description
The course introduces the basic foundations of chemistry, and includes those aspects of organic and inorganic chemistry that underpin agricultural and biological sciences, including chemical analysis. Core topics include: atomic structure and bonding, states of matter and intermolecular forces, aqueous solution equilibria and an introduction to the key molecules of life. Laboratory skills will be developed through gaining experience in various laboratory techniques. The ability to collect, analyse and organise information and ideas, and work and learn independently will be developed.
