edXChemistry is not abstract—it's the science behind energy systems, climate solutions, and industrial transformation. This course bridges that gap by anchoring concepts like thermodynamics, equilibria, and electrochemistry to real-world challenges.
You'll learn how chemical principles underpin both the problems (fossil fuel combustion, climate change) and the solutions (renewable energy, carbon capture). Acid-base and redox reactivity aren't just laboratory phenomena—they're the basis for battery technology, water treatment, and industrial processes reshaping our world. A course for anyone who wants to understand the chemistry behind the headlines.
Explain the fundamentals of chemistry, energy, and other elemental forces shaping the modern world. ,Describe the evolution of chemistry's role in addressing global challenges. ,Identify core concepts of energy and energy transformations, including thermodynamics, chemical equilibria, acid/base and redox reactivity, and electrochemistry. ,Understand the central role of chemistry in addressing global issues such as energy and climate change.
