Chemistry

This course is a general introduction into Chemistry that will build on material covered in Integrated Science as well as introduce new topics such as chemical equilibrium, thermodynamics, gases, acids/bases, reaction rates, oxidation/reduction, and nuclear chemistry. This course is also a foundational course for AP Biology and AP Chemistry. The course incorporates many hands-on laboratory experiments, and will allow a deeper understanding of our environment and the basic mechanisms underlying both inorganic and organic chemistry.
