AP® Chemistry
All Genders Course; Prerequisite - Successful completion of one year of high school laboratory science or permission from the administration; Full Year Course
Course Overview
AP® Chemistry is an introductory college-level chemistry course. The course is designed for students interested in an upper-level science course or planning to enter life science or pre-med programs in college. The goal of the course is to develop an understanding of chemistry through inquiry-based investigations. Students explore atomic, molecular, and ionic compound structure and properties; intermolecular forces; chemical reactions; kinetics; thermodynamics and its applications; equilibrium; and acids and bases. By the end of this course, students will be able to design experiments, graph and analyze data, support claims with evidence, explain the structure-function relationship of molecules and compounds, and balance chemical equations. This course is intended to prepare students for the AP® Chemistry Exam in May.
“I think the program is great, especially because AP Chem could be a hard course to take online.”
