It highlights the metric system's establishment in France in 1795 and its international adoption in 1960, emphasizing its decimal structure. The International System of Units (SI) is outlined, detailing its seven base units used across scientific disciplines, particularly chemistry.

It highlights the importance of the arrangement of groups around a tetrahedral center and distinguishes between prochiral faces (which can lead to chiral products) and achiral molecules. Understanding prochirality is essential for predicting reaction outcomes in organic synthesis and designing enantioselective reactions.
