Course Description<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

AP Chemistry is designed to be the equivalent of a first year college general chemistry course. The course will place special emphasis on applying mathematics to problem solving and as a means of expressing and modeling scientific inquiry. The course will provide an in depth treatment of atomic structure, gas laws, thermodynamics, stoichiometry, kinetics, equilibria, oxidation-reduction and electrochemistry.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
COURSE OBJECTIVES:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Develop students\u2019 problem solving skills<\/div>\n
Provide laboratory experience that enables students to analyze collected data and arrive at logical conclusions<\/div>\n
Give students background necessary to score well on the AP exam<\/div>\n
Prepare students for additional courses in science<\/div>\n
Develop students\u2019 ability for independent and logical thought<\/div>\n
Increase students\u2019 ability to apply math to physical sciences<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The AP Chemistry course is designed to be the equivalent of a two-semester college introductory chemistry course usually taken by chemistry majors during their first year.\u00a0 After showing themselves to be qualified on the AP Exam, some students, in their first year of college, are permitted to take upper-level courses in chemistry or register for courses for which chemistry is a prerequisite.\u00a0 Other students may have fulfilled a basic requirement for a laboratory-science course and will be able to undertake other courses to pursue their majors.\u00a0 Speak with a counselor or check with the universities for specific details.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Students are evaluated on regular homework assignments, laboratory activities as well as quizzes and tests. Quizzes and tests count for a greater proportion of the overall mark.\u00a0 An in class final exam will be written by all students registered in this course.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Students with a strong personal interest in Chemistry, strong math skills as well as strong work and study habits will do well in Chemistry courses.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Honours and AP courses are especially challenging so students must be prepared to spend considerable time working outside of class. Students should expect to spend 30 \u2013 60 minutes previewing, reviewing, studying and completing homework assignments for each scheduled class. It is easy to fall behind in this course so regular attendance and regular studying are required.<\/div>\n
