• 3101 Advanced Placement Chemistry

    (27 weeks, 1.5 credits)

    Advanced Placement Chemistry differs from Academic Chemistry in respect to the kind of textbook used, the depth of topics covered, the emphasis on calculations, the mathematical formulation of principles, and the type of laboratory work expected. Topics include matter’s structure and states, reaction types, equilibrium, kinetics, thermodynamics, and descriptive chemistry beyond that covered in Academic Chemistry.

    Advanced Placement Chemistry provides an opportunity for interested students to engage in an in-depth study of college-level chemical concepts. It is specifically designed to stimulate secondary students to higher achievement and eliminate duplication later in college. College credit or advanced standing may be obtained from many institutions for students who score 3 or higher on the Advanced Placement Test.
