Dear all (those who have registered for my online class): https://canvas.swansea.ac.uk/courses/15374

To start…. I have added live links throughout the course (starting from the front page) so you can navigate a little easier. Please feel free to still browse using the MODULES link.

I have opened the modules for this week:

Molecular Structure (which covers covalent molecules and bonding, electronegativity and drawing Lewis structure)
Thermochemistry (which covers DH)
Alkanes and Organic Structures (which covers an introduction to organic and naming, isomers, properties and reactions of alkanes)
Do note that for the last, the quizzes are not quite ready yet. Hopefully by the morning (my term finished on Friday so lots of end-of-term stuff kept me occupied!)
There will be some live ZOOM meetings later in the week. Questions that I will cover on this (always better for you to try questions before coming to “class”) will be released at least 36 hours before.

The sessions will be at 2 pm on WEDNESDAY (Molecular Structure) and noon (Thermochemistry) and 5 pm (Alkanes and Organic Structures) on THURSDAY (Atomic structure). (Ordinarily the last would be on Friday… but not this week for obvious reasons!)

Please e-mail any errors you find. I am trying to put this together around my “real job” so have not had time to double check everything.

Hope you enjoy. Let me know any feelings

Best

Simon

PS for those just joining, you can find e-mails from previous weeks to read if you so like. Please read the whole front page.
