Hacking the Periodic Table I – Inorganic Chemistry video course download and chemistry in Everyday Life, Industry and Science by Udemy. In this course, we will cover various concepts, reactions and applications of chemistry which you might meet in your everyday life or use unknowingly come into contact with. Chemistry infuses our lives on so many levels that it is an essential but demanding task to understand it in depth.
The concept of this course is not to only give textbook explanations to things, explain models. Instead it aims at using your knowledge to understand the bigger picture and apply the knowledge you gained.
To provide an appealing curriculum we combined the three big pillars of chemistry which is scientific research, application in industry and you as a student. By this we want to give scientific explanations to industrially relevant topics and show you how often you might meet certain elements without realizing it.
This curriculum of this course will cover atomic concepts as a foundation to gain an understanding for the reactivity and behavior of elements as well as trends of the periodic table. Subsequently, we will have an in-depth look at the elements of main group 1 to 4 and their most interesting applications.
In this first part of the course we will cover the basics of the atom concept and cover the main group elements of group 1 to 4.
