Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives: General chemistry is a science of measurement consisting of a powerful set of ideas and methods useful in all fields of science, engineering and medicine. The spread of General chemistry with many departments aims to obtain those who are influenced by them in the students who take this course.
Course Content: Matter: Properties and Measurement; Atoms and Atomic Theory; Chemical Compounds & Chemical Reactions; Introduction to Reactions in Aqueous Solutions; gases; Thermochemistry; Electrons in Atoms & Periodic Table and Some Atomic Properties; Comparative Bonds I & II; Intermolecular Forces: Liquids and Solids; Chemical Kinetics; Chemical Equilibrium Principles; Acids and Bases and Acid-Base Balance

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Students will have learned the necessary basic concepts of general chemistry and have a good foundation.
2) Students will learn the relationship between matter-chemistry and chemical law-concepts
3) Students will be able to think systematically
4) Students will learn the structure of material materials and the chemical changes that may occur in their structures.
5) Students will be able to prepare the solutions they need and will know the properties of the solutions.
