Chemistry 32S (CH 32S)
Chemistry 32S (Advanced Placement Chemistry) is designed to be a rich and rigorous mathematical and conceptual course. It is strongly based on experimental experience. Every student will build a portfolio of laboratory work representing a significant part of their overall evaluation. Topics include: Atomic Structure, Mass & Mole Relationships, Reactions in solution, Gases, Thermochemistry, Introductory Quantum Theory and Chemical Bonding. The pace is often accelerated with topics tending to be either abstract or mathematically challenging. Students are expected to be able to work independently as well as cooperatively. Students will be invited to participate based on their performance in Science 20F or Science 20FH and Pre-Calculus 20S
Chemistry 40S (CH 40S)
The Chemistry 40S course is a rigorous analytical challenge. Topics are increasingly abstract and theoretical – building on a strong foundation of fundamentals from Chemistry 30S. Students must have a strong mathematical background. Topics include: Atomic Structure, Kinetics, Chemical Equilibrium, Acid-Base Equilibria, Solubility Equilibrium and Oxidation Reduction. (Prerequisites: Chemistry 30S and Pre-Calculus Math 30S)
Chemistry 42S (CH 42S)
Chemistry 42S (Advanced Placement Chemistry - level II) is intended to provide students with the equivalent of first year university (college) Chemistry. Significant laboratory work is a requirement. Students will extend the portfolios started in the Chemistry 32S course. This program has both abstract and mathematically demanding topics. Students must be prepared to engage in topics both independently and cooperatively. Topics include: Intermolecular Forces, Properties of Solutions, Kinetics, Equilibrium, Acids and Bases, Electrochemistry, Entropy and Free Energy and miscellaneous topics. One of the desired outcomes is for students to successfully write the Advanced Placement Exam. Students will be invited to participate based on their performance in Chemistry 32S and Pre-Calculus Math Honours 30SH.
