This course is a one-year, college-level chemistry course. Material introduced in the sophomore year chemistry course will serve as the foundation for this in-depth analysis. The syllabus will follow that of the AP Chemistry curriculum, and the students will be prepared for the examination at year’s end. Formal laboratory assignments will accompany each unit, and complex mathematical analysis of each unit will challenge the students’ understanding of concepts. Topics include matter and its properties, stoichiometry, gases, atomic theory, reaction kinematics, equilibrium, thermodynamics, oxidation-reduction, acids & bases, and organic chemistry. Enrolled students are required to take the AP Chemistry exam in May. Prerequisites/co-requisite: Chemistry, departmental recommendation, Pre-Calculus
