Diploma Food Technology
Food chemistry Two Chemistry
Course Outline
Module Purpose
To
provide introductory level skills and concepts of classes of organic and
physical chemistry and provide essentials skills in naming and classifying
organic compounds and predicting their reactions and o
provide background concepts necessary to describe the physical properties of
classes of substances and the chemical theories necessary to explain these
properties

completion of this module Learners will be able to:
1)
Describe the nature of organic compounds and define
important terms relating to organic chemistry
2) Interconvert
names and molecular structures of organic compounds
3) Recall and
apply functional group reactions
4) Link
physical properties of organic compounds to their structure
5) List and
