Main themes
The formation is oriented towards problems solving. Formal lessons are given and activities in small groups are organized where numerical chemistry problems are worked out. The topics covered are atomic, ionic and molecular properties, conservation of matter, gas properties, reactivity, thermodynamics, equilibria in aqueous solution and kinetics.
Aims
At the end of this learning unit, the student is able to : | |
| 1 | The aim of the course is to give a basic knowledge of general chemistry to students oriented towards life sciences. With these lessons, the students should acquire a sound idea of what atoms and molecules are and how they behave. They should be able to use in a proper fashion the basic notions of molecular structure, reactivity, thermodynamics and kinetics. At the end of half an academic year, typical numerical problems of a first year college chemistry course have to be mastered. |

Content
This course corresponds to a typical first year general chemistry course of an anglo-saxon college.
