Chemistry (Period 6)
Course Description
The goal of this course is to build a foundation of scientific reasoning and methodology that will be used throughout students’ academic careers by educating students in the central science of chemistry. Students will learn about atomic theory, how atoms and molecules interact, properties of matter (on macroscopic and atomic levels), and chemical reactions, all while using laboratory experiments to develop skills in data collection, analysis and presentation. By the end of this course, students will understand that science is not just a class that is required for graduation, but a discipline that encompasses every aspect of our lives. Semester 1 will focus on scientific skills, the scientific method, scientific measurement and conversions, properties of matter, states of matter, atomic structure and the periodic table. Semester 2 will focus on chemical nomenclature, chemical bonding, chemical reactions and stoichiometry, solutions, acids and bases ,and a brief introduction to nuclear chemistry.
