Dr. K's Introductory Organic Chemistry

This course covers most of the basics of a first semester Organic Chemistry course that one might take as a nursing student, science major or pre-med student. Ideally, students should have taken a year of General Chemistry as a prerequisite, although just completing first semester of General Chemistry should be sufficient. Students in this course have access to ample supplemental material, all of which will be found in the Resource Folders.

In addition to the 18. 5 hours of lectures, downloadable audio mp3 files of each lecture are included. For nearly all lectures, a Practice Assignment where you can test your understanding of the material can be found in the Resource Folder.

Also included is an answer key for each Practice Assignment. Any graphs, figures or tables presented in the lectures are also available as downloadable files. The content of this course is as extensive as both of my General Chemistry courses that are also available on Udemy.

This course assumes that you have completed General Chemistry I and ideally General Chemistry II college courses. While you will not need to be familiar with all topics covered in those courses, you should have a good understanding of atomic structure, electron configuration, covalent bonding, electronegativity, Lewis Dot Structures, molecular geometry and hybridization. Being familiar with acid-base chemistry and equilibrium as it applies to acids and bases is a plus.
