Course Overview
Course Overview
This course is designed to provide the student interested in enrolling in a college level class, either Chemistry AP at Westlake or later in college, with a strong background in chemical topics. The course will be taught at a rigorous pace, and the curriculum will cover the higher level topics of thermodynamics, equilibrium, kinetics, and electrochemistry. Knowledge of certain topics covered in physical science will be assumed, and if lacking, individual outside preparation will be necessary. The laboratory component of the course will be modeled after a college laboratory. Many of the labs will involve the use of technology in the collection of data. A Chemistry Honors student is expected to have completed geometry and be concurrently enrolled in Algebra II or higher.
