General Chemistry, studied in Academic High Schools and Secondary Schools, is a comprehensive course that includes both the traditional sections of General Chemistry - fundamental concepts and laws, with model concepts of atomic structure and chemical bonding, energy and chemical reaction rate, chemical equilibrium, solutions and electrolytic dissociation, as well as elements of analytical, physical and colloid chemistry.The text-book involves carrying out experiments with chemical reagents and is carried out in a specially equipped laboratory. In order to prepare a text-book, a student must first independently work out theoretical material, understand the aims and objectives of the work, and familiarise himself with the methods of chemical experiments.The "General Chemistry" manual is intended for students of academic lyceums to master and consolidate theoretical material and to use the knowledge gained in laboratory classes.
