L2 Chemistry: Bonding, structure & energy changes

Course Overview

The course will look at types of bonding and resulting structures and how the properties of solids are related to their structure. Energy maybe absorbed or released in chemical reactions and stoichiometry will be used to calculate heats of reaction.
