Introduction to General Chemistry

General chemistry includes the basic principles of the structure, properties, and transformations of matter. Understanding these fundamentals is crucial to understanding the properties and processes in biology, the environment, and materials.

General chemistry provides a broad background knowledge of chemical and physical concepts. You will learn new terminology, chemical concepts, and problem solving. Do not fall back on brute force memorization to learn chemistry, it is a poor strategy for exams and real life. Learning chemical concepts requires dedicated effort and practice, but the rewards are well worth the effort.
