INTRODUCTION
Chemistry is a discipline that is special,
one of the areas is contains concepts that are abstract, but actually chemistry
is closely related and very useful in our lives. on the other hand more students assume that
study of chemistry is not applicable but just theory and theory. the
cause of it, learning methods commonly used are not varied. Therefore, students
sometimes feel tired, especially if confronted with materials which are more
difficult and confusing. Self confidence especially in communication is as one of the attitude
which should be applied students since now. The attitude is one of the
qualities who not materialized of someone.
Character

the patterns able to inculcate good things, so students become understand of
which is good and wrong, which the appropriate and not appropriate, and can
feel good values and want to do it.
Science

aspects of reasoning. Included in the reasoning is logical, rational thinking,
