About This Course
ACE Approved 2022
General Chemistry I familiarizes you the basic principles of chemistry. This course begins with an analysis of matter and its components, stoichiometry, and intermolecular force and phase changes. Properties of liquids, solids, and gasses are also explored in our online General Chemistry I course. This foundation is used to examine solubility, colligative properties of solutions, chemical reactions, quantum theory and atomic structure, and chemical periodicity. Other topics you will learn include main group and transition elements.
