Stage 1 chemistry
What Will You Learn?
In this course, you will learn about the fundamental concepts and principles in chemistry through developing, and extending your understanding of how the physical world is chemically constructed, the interaction between human activities and the environment, and the use that human beings make of the planet's resources. Studying chemistry can be an incredibly rewarding experience for you. Not only does it open up new career opportunities and provide a deeper understanding of the world around us, but it also gives you a better appreciation of everyday things like food, air, water, household cleaning chemicals, the chemicals that you use in your garden, drugs and many more. Chemists use their experiments and knowledge to study, develop, and advance different fields of science such as medicines, foods, fabrics, paints, and many more.
