GENERAL CHEMISTRY 101
CHEMICAL REACTIONS
"BASICS"
AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS
In this section, we shall discuss the major types of chemical reactions.
Many chemical reactions and virtually all biological processes take place in
an aqueous environment. Some of the most important reactions involves ions,
all of which can be represented as chemical equations. Our focus will be
aqueous solutions in which the initial solute is a solid or a liquid and the
solvent is water. [..see
syllabus]...(Its important that you complete the
"self-
.......exercises in each section!)

In addition to the regular homework assignments of problems from the text,
self paced exercises, activities, quizzes, and virtual/practicals are
incorporated in each major section of this course. It is important, to
the extent possible, that each student take maximum advantage of these
study aids!
