Learning objectives
At the end of the course the student will be able to solve problems of various complexity concerning General Chemistry. The course also aims to provide the student with an adequate level of culture to profitably deal with subsequent courses such as Organic Chemistry (2nd year), Drug Analysis I (2nd year) and General Biochemistry (2nd year).
The student will be able to understand the basic properties of matter from an electronic, structural and chemical reactivity point of view.
The student must be able to apply this knowledge at the molecular level in the study of new drugs or health products in a defined biological system.
