AP Chemistry is a second-year course designed for those students who plan to major in a science or related field at the college level. Students enrolling in this course must also enroll in topics in Advanced Placement Science (4470L). The AP course outline is followed and students are prepared to be successful on the Advanced Placement exam for possible college credit. Through inquiry-based learning, students develop critical thinking and reasoning skills. Students cultivate their understanding of chemistry and science practices as they explore topics such as: atomic structure, intermolecular forces and bonding, chemical reactions, kinetics, thermodynamics, and equilibrium. See Guidelines for Placement of Students in Honors/AP/Dual Enrolled Classes.
