Chemistry

This course begins with a revision on acids, reinforcing their properties, types, and reactions. It then covers bases and salts, exploring their characteristics, formation, and applications in real-life scenarios.

The study of carbon and its properties follows, examining its allotropes, chemical behavior, and significance. This leads to an in-depth discussion on oxides of carbon, including carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, their formation, uses, and environmental impact.

Students will explore coal and fuel gases, their sources, uses, and role in energy production. The course also includes trioxocarbonate (IV) acid (H₂CO₃), its formation, properties, and reactions.

An introduction to hydrocarbons covers alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes, emphasizing their structures, properties, and industrial relevance. Finally, applied chemistry explores practical applications of chemical principles in industries such as pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and manufacturing.
