Academic Year 2008-2009 • Grade 11 and above • Science Sequence
For reference only; see current year course listing for course availability and details.Chemistry
Sections and Teachers
Section 1: Instructor: Christe McMenomy
Starts: September 4, 2008
Ends: May 29, 2009

Tuition: $450.00
There is more information at the teacher's course Website: Chemistry
Introduction to the concepts of matter, atomic structure, electron configuration, the nature of chemical bonds, aspects of acid-base and precipitation reactions, simple solution preparation, chemical equilibria, ane energy. Additional topics may include organic chemistry, biochemistry, and the characteristics of chemical families.
Textbooks for this course will be announced in spring, 2008.Prerequisites
Students should have completed a first year algebra and a year geometry course or their equivalent, and be taking a second year algebra course. They must be able to factor algebraic expressions and be able to solve the quadratic equation. Use of scientific notation and logarithmic expressions will be covered during the course.
Recommended background
A junior high school level course in physical science is highly recommended. Students taking this accerated Chemistry course in preparation for the SAT II and/or AP examinations in chemistry should also have completed ScholarsOnline Natural Science (especially Year II), Biology, or Astronomy.
Teacher's notes:
Attendance at both weekly sessions is required for all students. AP option students will have additional meetings during late fall and spring in preparation for the AP examination in May.
