General Chemistry II. Chemical Reactions
Proferssor_ Andrei Zagorodni

The course will be taught within the subject "General Chemistry. Basic Chemical Principles". It is complimentary to the first part "General Chemistry I. Matter". These two courses are recommended to be studied as a sequence however the strict requirements is not imposed. The pre-requirements for the students subscribing: successfully complete the course "General Chemistry I. Matter", or complete any other freshmen chemical course, or indicate sufficient knowledge obtained through practical experience. Special cases can be considered. 　　The two courses cover all main chemical principles. A student successfully competed the course will be able to say: "I know and understand what is chemistry, chemical terminology, basic chemical approaches". Would the student wish to continue his or her education in the direction of natural science, he or she will be ready to subscribe and successfully start more specific chemical courses (for example, Analytical Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Chemistry of Elements, Physical Chemistry, etc.).
