Course Description: AP Chemistry (Columbine High School)

Specific topics include: the use of bonding theories to explain the relationships between atomic structure, molecular shape, and macroscopic properties of matter including boiling point, vapor pressure, surface tension, viscosity, and capillarity; the understanding of molecular structure to explain the energetics of solution formation as well as vapor pressures of pure liquids and solutions; the application of rates of reactions to define the state of equilibrium; the application of problem solving techniques for systems at equilibrium to acid/base and solubility chemistry; and the thermodynamic underpinnings of chemical reaction rates and the spontaneous conversion of chemical species to attain a state of dynamic equilibrium. Laboratory course designed to accompany Chem 2061. Topics include colligative properties, spectroscopic analysis, kinetics, equilibrium, acid-base chemistry, titrations, and qualitative analysis of metal cations. GT: Course is approved by the Colorado Dept of Higher Education for statewide guaranteed transfer, GT-SC2.
