Principles of Chemistry

This course is a comprehensive introduction to Chemistry, covering everything you will need to know as you prepare for possible future exams.  It doesn't matter how much, or how little, prior knowledge of Chemistry you've got as this course will take you through all the necessary stages.

The content is based on the International GCSE specification as followed by thousands of students around the world, and will prepare you thoroughly for progression to advanced programmes.

In Section 1, The Principles of Chemistry, there are five video lessons, each one lasting about 20 minutes. The first lesson introduces the states of matter and atomic structure.  In the next lesson we progress to relative formula mass and chemical equations - don't be put off by these as everything is very carefully explained!  Lesson 3 covers chemical formulae, and we progress in lesson four to look at reacting masses, ionic bonding and covalent bonding.  Lesson five wraps up this part of the course with metallic crystals and electrolysis.
