NOTE: AP Chemistry is best suited for students with well-developed critical thinking, problem-solving, and study skills and/or students who wish to improve their academic skills through hard work. Students should expect 75 minutes of homework most nights.
How can color be used to determine the mass percent of copper in brass? How long will that marble statue last? How much acid is in fruit juice and soda? We’ll answer these questions and more through guided inquiry-based experiments. This college-level course, conforming with the College Board’s AP Chemistry curriculum, will challenge students to synthesize concepts, enabling them to problem-solve at even higher levels. Concepts include, but are not limited to, equilibrium, kinetics, thermodynamics, atomic structure and theory, states of matter, reaction rates, and chemical bonding. At year-end, you will be ready to tackle the AP Chemistry exam.
