Biology, Algebra ICourse description
Chemistry gives students a deeper understanding of the world around them as they investigate how chemistry is involved in everyday life. Students explore fundamental chemistry content and concepts, including the metric system, the periodic table, atomic structures, bonding, chemical reactions, and nuclear reactions. They apply their knowledge and science process skills through labs that use common, household objects in order to explore the practicality of chemistry. This course requires students to use fundamental algebra skills to solve problems. Course topics include the atom, defining matter, acids and bases, polar bonds and molecules, solutions, ionic bonding, thermochemistry, and nuclear reactions. Chemistry is a textbook-free course.
