1. Course Description
Course Objectives
|
This course will provide the students an opportunity to physically experience the contents in the general chemistry 2 class through series of experiments. The experiments are chosen based on its relevance to the general chemistry 2 class. The students will learn meaningful information and chemistry skills from this course. Strive to find connections to real-life situations in some of our experiments here.
