Course Overview:

In this Honors Chemistry online course, students will discover what chemistry is and how it is used and found all around us. Students will use higher order thinking throughout this two semester course.

Semester 1:  

In Semester A, the importance of the scientific method to solve real-world problems will be investigated. Knowledge will be gained in the following areas: types of matter, atomic structure, chemical periodicity, chemical formula writing and naming, and chemical equations. This course will also stress the important relationship between math and science while studying measurement, the metric system, and stoichiometry.

Semester 2: 

In Semester B, students will investigate chemical bonding, thermochemistry, and acids and bases. The importance of the scientific method to solve real-world problems will be investigated. Knowledge will be gained in the following areas: organic chemistry, biochemistry, and nuclear chemistry. This course will also stress the important relationship between math and science.
