The main objectives are the knowledge of the fundamental concepts of general chemistry and the skill to address numerical exercises relevant to the application of these concepts.
More specific objectives are the knowledge and application of fundamental concepts concerning the atomic structure, the chemical bond, the geometry and structure of molecules, the states of matter and their properties, the transitions phase, the main laws of thermodynamics and kinetics, the equilibria in solution and in the gas phase, the acids, bases and titration, the solubility equilibria, the electrochemistry and its application.
Further objectives are the ability to connect the acquired knowledge, the ability to communicate what the student has learnt, the ability to understand the contents of the following chemistry courses.

The main objective of the course is the acquisition of knowledge relating to:
- structure and properties of matter and its chemical transformations
- thermodynamics and its application to chemical equilibria, phase transformations and solutions
- redox reactions
- acid-base equilibria
- basics of electrochemistry
