I want to learn chemistry!

If you want practical chemistry, I would rather recommend electrolysis of water..

You can produce hydrogen, oxygen from pure water.

If it's solution of salt, you will be also able to produce chlorine and sodium hydroxide.

From previously made hydrogen and chlorine you will be able to make chloride acid.

 

After using metal electrodes you will be able to produce various oxides, and hydroxides.

This way you can calculate masses of the most common chemical elements.

 

Also ideal gas law is essential thing to learn.

Get yourself a standard textbook and study it yourself in the order presented.

^^This^^

 

I've started doing this myself and if you're coming from a "next to none" knowledge base like me it really helps to go through the basics. I'm working through the Pearson IGCSE Physics, Chemistry and Biology books, relatively cheap and gradually builds on itself definitely worth a look. hope this helps.
