Chemistry Honors is a rigorous course that involves the study of matter and energy. Topics of study include: matter and measurement, atoms, molecules, and Ions, stoichiometry, periodic properties, chemical bonding, molecular geometry, properties of solutions, chemical equilibrium, acids and bases, thermodynamics, and electrochemistry. Many of these units involve a large amount of mathematical calculations and manipulations. Students must have completed Algebra 1. Students are encouraged to sit for the CLEP exam at the end of the course to demonstrate their levels of understanding and mastery.
Students should expect an hour of work, 4-5 days a week outside of class.
