Chemistry

Chemistry uses Discovering Design with Chemistry and is a high school chemistry course designed for students who have completed Algebra I. The course covers fundamental aspects of chemistry such as the classification of matter, atomic structure, spectroscopy, chemical bonding, molecular geometry, physical change, chemical change, stoichiometry, solutions, ideal gases, acid/base chemistry, reduction/oxidation reactions, thermochemistry, thermodynamics, kinetics, and chemical equilibrium. Weaving together concepts and their mathematical applications, the course teaches students how to think like a chemist so they can analyze the major changes that occur in matter. The course will be 20 weeks of in person teaching with 6 weeks of video presentations for a total of 26 weeks of instruction. Class time will focus on reviewing important concepts, covering sample problems with students to ensure understanding, and review games when time allows. 

Supply fee $25
