The course covers fundamental concepts and organizing principles of chemistry that provide the foundation for many aspects of chemical science and related fields. It aims to bring Freshmen students in science and engineering to the same level of command of basic chemistry that is essential to progress to advanced courses. The concepts espoused in the course will be illustrated and connected with real world applications whenever relevant. Practical work is at the heart of chemistry. The laboratory component of this course aims to expose you to chosen experiments which will help you gain familiarity with a variety of skills, laboratory techniques and equipment and instill in you the ability to work independently as well as part of a team.
