Before choosing course

Course contents

Coherence between reactivity and simple physical constants will be emphasized throughout. When a chemical reaction takes place and when is it not? The latter issue may be important, for example, if you work with a package that will not react with its contents.

Intended learning outcomes

Students who complete the course shall have good knowledge in the field of organic chemistry and an ability to reason about chemical reactivity.
