CP Chemistry

This CP level course is taught from a more conceptual view of chemistry with the amount and level of mathematics required minimized. Core topics are taught using real-world examples and applications to put the importance of chemistry into perspective for the student. Major concepts such as atomic structure, bonding, reactions, gases, and acids/bases are covered. Course work, as well as laboratory work, will be performed to reinforce key concepts to better the students’ understanding. Over the course of the year, skills and techniques in handling materials, apparatus, and concepts will be developed. Emphasis is on the application of chemical concepts using labs, demonstrations, hands-on activities, and basic mathematical calculations.
