Abstract

This publication offers a comprehensive framework for teaching inorganic chemistry, specifically designed for second-year students in Process and Petrochemical Engineering. It covers the fundamentals of inorganic chemistry, explaining core concepts such as organic and inorganic compounds, chemical symbols, atomic and molecular masses, and chemical formulas. The publication delves into laws governing mass and volume, and calculations of the quantity of matter through concepts like the mole and molar density. It then proceeds to explore crystal structures, explaining molecular, ionic, and covalent crystals in detail, alongside the seven crystal systems and the classification of minerals based on their crystalline structure. Additionally, it examines the properties and applications of chalcogens and halogens. Major metallurgical industries, including the production of iron, copper, ammonia, and sulfuric acid, are also discussed, with an emphasis on the chemical processes involved. This material aims to enhance students' understanding of inorganic chemistry and its industrial applications, while bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and practical applications to assist in solving chemical problems methodically
