This course delves into the foundational concepts of chemistry, focusing on the mole concept, stoichiometry, and various chemical calculations. It starts by explaining the laws of chemical combinations and Dalton’s atomic theory with simple, easy-to-understand examples. Students then learn the definitions and applications of the mole, Avogadro’s number, and molar mass, which are essential for quantitative chemistry.

The course emphasizes stoichiometry, teaching learners how to convert between moles, grams, and molecules, and how to use mole ratios to solve chemical equations. Key concepts such as limiting and excess reactants, theoretical yield, and percent yield are covered with practical examples to strengthen problem-solving skills. Additionally, students will explore differences between molarity and molality, calculation of molality, normality, and equivalent weight for a variety of compounds.

By the end of this course, learners will have a solid grasp of essential chemical calculations, enabling them to tackle quantitative problems confidently. This course is ideal for high school, JAMB, PUTME, and introductory college students preparing for exams or practical applications in chemistry.
