Re_Boot Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 how is going? I want start to learn chemistry,where do you recommend to learn? sorry about my english
Rajnish Kaushik Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Since its the basic and by this it will help in atomic structure and chemical equilibrium then thermodynamics and in organic go for GOC first
Sensei Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 If you want practical chemistry, I would rather recommend electrolysis of water.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolysis_of_water You can produce hydrogen, oxygen from pure water. If it's solution of salt, you will be also able to produce chlorine and sodium hydroxide. From previously made hydrogen and chlorine you will be able to make chloride acid. After using metal electrodes you will be able to produce various oxides, and hydroxides. This way you can calculate masses of the most common chemical elements. Also ideal gas law is essential thing to learn. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas_law
Enthalpy Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 What about an experiment kit? It doesn't suffice to become a chemist, but (1) it's fun (2) it gives some practical sense (3) you can build book knowledge over that.
rktpro Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Get yourself a standard textbook and study it yourself in the order presented.
jwlallen Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Get yourself a standard textbook and study it yourself in the order presented. ^^This^^ I've started doing this myself and if you're coming from a "next to none" knowledge base like me it really helps to go through the basics. I'm working through the Pearson IGCSE Physics, Chemistry and Biology books, relatively cheap and gradually builds on itself definitely worth a look. hope this helps.
