Course Description:
Please join us for an in-depth exploration of God’s marvelous creation through chemistry where we will study a detailed description of limiting–reagent stoichiometry, atomic and molecular orbitals, intermolecular forces, solutions, equilibria, acids and bases, redox reactions, nuclear chemistry, and an introduction to organic chemistry.   We will be performing experiments to reinforce the theory the book teaches.

Advanced chemistry class is a 1.5 hour class lasting a full year. This course examines the composition of various substances and the changes they go through. The class will consist of both lecture and laboratory experience. During the lab time the students will perform many types of experiments using standard laboratory equipment and basic chemicals.  The students are expected to do 1-1.5 hrs. of homework daily.
