Description

AP Chemistry/AP Chemistry Laboratory is a daily course equivalent to the first year of college-level Introductory Chemistry.Upon successful completion of the AP Exam, students may receive up to two semesters of college credit.Instruction is focused on conceptual understanding that allows students to develop and the scientific reasoning skills necessary for designing and planning data collection, analysis, applying mathematical routines, and making connections across concepts.Topics of study include structure of matter, bonding and intermolecular forces, chemical reactions, kinetics, thermodynamics, and chemical equilibrium.This course includes a strong emphasis on laboratory investigations.Mathematic applications are a large component of the course.Students who have passed Functions/Trigonometry or are co-enrolled in Functions/Trigonometry tend to be more successful.

Biology is also highly recommended.
