School Type:
High School
School Max Description:
Online Advanced Placement Chemistry
Content Area:
MVLO Science
Description:
AP Chemistry builds students’ understanding of the nature and reactivity of matter. After studying the structure of atoms, molecules, and ions, students move on to solve quantitative chemical problems and explore how molecular structure relates to chemical and physical properties. Students will examine the molecular composition of common substances and learn to predictably transform them through chemical reactions. The equivalent of an introductory college-level chemistry course, AP Chemistry prepares students for the AP Exam and for further study in science, health sciences, or engineering. The content aligns to the scope and sequence specified by the College Board and to widely used textbooks. Students may take the first semester of the course without taking the second semester but may not take semester 2 without taking semester 1. Required resources: The majority of the required instructional material for this course is available to students online and is equivalent to a college-level textbook. Students will need a lab supervisor and materials specified in the course. Each laboratory activity is self-contained; no manual is needed. A collection of lab reports is comparable to a lab manual or notebook
