About
Hi everyone! This series will help you elevate your understanding of many topics about molecular structures. I will be following the first chapter of "Chemical Structure and Reactivity" by Keeler and Wothers, but you do not need the textbook; just follow along during the session.
You do not need to have any prior experience with chemistry, but if you do, you should still take a look at the session topics and join if you're curious about one.
Bring a pencil and paper for scratch work, along with a calculator (you can use your device's calculator).
While this series does not explicitly follow the AP Chemistry curriculum, the textbook has significant overlap, so I label the sessions as AP Chemistry.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY
If you can make it, I highly recommend that you attend as many sessions as you can. Some parts from later sessions may draw from previous sessions.
However, if you already understand the topic or you are simply unable to make it, I will not penalize you.
