Chemistry Concepts Per. 3

Chemistry Concepts is an introductory college preparatory laboratory course that presents the major chemical concepts, but is not as dependent on mathematical calculations as Chemistry I or Chemistry I Honors. Students become familiar with the vocabulary of chemistry and understand the basic concepts of atomic and molecular structure, physical properties related to chemical structure and the fundamentals of chemical reactions. Laboratory experiments are used throughout the course to demonstrate the experimental foundations of the subject matter, to reinforce content, and to teach laboratory techniques and safety. Chemistry Concepts provides a practical understanding of chemistry and of the applications of chemistry in everyday experiences.
