Interpretation: Characteristics that former chemistry student find most important to their success needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction: Chemistry is a fundamental science that investigates and studies molecules. It is known that all matter is made of chemicals. The importance of chemistry is that it is the study of everything.
Answer to Problem 2RQ
The important characteristics to former chemistry students that made them successful depends upon their strong communication, team management, subjective knowledge, right selection of team, etc. In above mentioned characteristics, strong communication is the easiest and right selection of team is the most difficult way.
Explanation of Solution
Chemistry is all about how it interacts to affect the structure, composition, as well as properties of substances. There are many resources available in learning chemistry such as textbooks, team learning, learning from trusted websites, etc.
The meaning of Learning chemistry involves questions- how to be objective, how to reason, and solve problems. The important characteristics of former chemistry students that made them successful are mentioned below:
- Through knowledge of their fields.
- Self-awareness at the team level.
- Ability to choose right person in team.
- Ability to communicate effectively.
- Ability to recognize problems and answer them too.
- High level of motivation.
In above mentioned characteristics, strong communication (Ability to communicate effectively) is the easiest way because one can convey information/ details to others in a very simple and unambiguous way.
In above mentioned characteristics, right selection of team is most difficult because it selection of members in a team requires a lots of effort.
