Chemistry

About the Class:

Welcome to Chemistry, the study of the properties of matter and its transformations. This challenging class will provide you with an introduction to basic chemistry in preparation for further study at the college or university level. Consequently, the organization of the class is similar to college chemistry courses, with heavy emphasis on laboratory and test performance. In this class, we will be studying the following topics:

  • Matter and energy
  • Periodicity
  • Chemical equations
  • Entropy and enthalpy
  • Solutions
  • Acids and bases
  • Thermodynamics
  • Atomic structure
  • Ionic and covalent bonds
  • Stoichiometry
  • Gases
  • Chemical equilibrium
  • Reaction rates
  • Organic chemistry
  • Scientific Inquiry
