Course Description: Chemistry (Senior One)

WELCOME TO S1 CHEMISTRY, 

This course will involve  four CHEMISTRY concepts . First and foremost,  Chemistry is the study of matter – what it is made of, how it changes, and how it interacts with the world around us. In Senior One, this course introduces learners to the basic ideas of Chemistry that form the foundation for future studies.

Learners will explore:

  • The importance of Chemistry in daily life (food, medicine, agriculture, environment, and industry).

  • Laboratory safety rules and proper handling of chemicals and apparatus.

  • The states of matter (solids, liquids, gases) and how they can change.

  • Elements, mixtures, and compounds, and how to separate them.

By the end of the course, learners should be able to:

  • Understand the role of Chemistry in solving everyday problems.

  • Use basic laboratory skills safely and correctly.

  • Describe and classify matter.                                                                                                                             This course is designed to make Chemistry both interesting and practical, showing learners that it is not just a subject in class, but a science that explains much of the world around them.
