Unit 1: Matter, Trends in chemistry and Bonding
This unit will introduce students to a deeper understanding of matter, atoms, atomic composition and various properties of the atom. From here elements are introduced along with the periodic table of elements. This leads to understanding how elements come together to make different compounds, for different bonds and what accounts for the differences in both physical and chemical properties in various compounds.
