Features: This book is based on the "Basic Chemistry Teaching Syllabus for Senior High School Teachers' Advanced Normal College Biology Education Program" issued by the Department of Normal Education of the State Education Commission. It serves as a foundational textbook for high school biology teachers to study biology major courses. The book is divided into three parts: Part 1 (Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry), Part 2 (Organic Chemistry), and Part 3 (Experiments). Part 1 primarily introduces fundamental theories such as solutions, chemical equilibrium, redox reactions, atomic and molecular structures, as well as basic knowledge on certain elements, compounds, and titration analysis. Part 2 focuses on the structures, nomenclature, properties, and mechanisms of important reactions of various types of organic compounds. Part 3 includes introductions to common laboratory instruments, basic operations, and 14 experiments covering element determination, ion identification, and compound property analysis. The book ensures systematic coverage across disciplines while reflecting, to varying degrees, contemporary knowledge closely related to biology. Each chapter is accompanied by exercises or discussion questions.
