【课程简介】

本课程主要是为了准备参加AP化学考试的高中生准备的，主要课程内容如下：

Lesson​ ​1​ ​​ ​Stoichiometry We​ ​will​ ​focus​ ​on​ ​the​ ​use​ ​of​ ​chemical​ ​formulas​ ​to​ ​represent​ ​reactants​ ​and​ ​on​ ​the​ ​use​ ​of quantitative​ ​information​ ​to​ ​obtain​ ​about​ ​the​ ​amounts​ ​of​ ​substances​ ​involved​ ​in​ ​the​ ​reaction.

Stoichiometry​ ​is​ ​built​ ​on​ ​an​ ​understanding​ ​of​ ​atomic​ ​masses,​ ​chemical​ ​formulas,​ ​and​ ​the​ ​law​ ​of conservation​ ​of​ ​mass.

Lesson​ ​2​ ​​ ​Gases We​ ​will​ ​focus​ ​on​ ​the​ ​physical​ ​properties​ ​of​ ​gases,​ ​understand​ ​the​ ​ideal​ ​gas​ ​law​ ​and​ ​the​ ​molecular theory​ ​of​ ​gases.

Will​ ​also​ ​practice​ ​on​ ​how​ ​to​ ​find​ ​out​ ​density,​ ​effusion​ ​rate,​ ​average​ ​rate.

Lesson​ ​3​ ​​ ​Electron​ ​structures​ ​of​ ​atoms We​ ​will​ ​discuss​ ​the​ ​quantum​ ​theory​ ​and​ ​use​ ​quantum​ ​theory​ ​to​ ​describe​ ​the​ ​arrangement​ ​of electrons​ ​in​ ​atoms.

Lesson​ ​4​ ​​ ​Molecular​ ​Geometry​ ​and​ ​Bonding​ ​Theory We​ ​will​ ​focus​ ​on​ ​studying​ ​the​ ​relationship​ ​between​ ​two-dimensional​ ​Lewis​ ​structures​ ​and three-dimensional​ ​molecular​ ​shapes.​ ​​ ​Examine​ ​more​ ​closely​ ​the​ ​nature​ ​of​ ​covalent​ ​bonds.

Lesson​ ​5+6​ ​Thermodynamics We​ ​will​ ​examine​ ​the​ ​relationship​ ​between​ ​chemical​ ​reactions​ ​and​ ​energy​ ​changes​ ​involving​ ​heat. Will​ ​discuss​ ​all​ ​three​ ​thermodynamic​ ​laws.

Lesson​ ​7​ ​​ ​Liquid​ ​and​ ​Solid/Intermolecular​ ​Forces The​ ​physical​ ​properties​ ​of​ ​molecular​ ​liquids​ ​and​ ​solids​ ​are​ ​largely​ ​due​ ​to​ ​intermolecular​ ​forces. We​ ​will​ ​focus​ ​on​ ​intermolecular​ ​forces,​ ​different​ ​type​ ​of​ ​solids,​ ​phase​ ​diagrams,​ ​and​ ​the colligative​ ​properties​ ​of​ ​liquids.

Lesson​ ​8+9​ ​​ ​Kinetics Understand​ ​how​ ​to​ ​determine​ ​the​ ​rates​ ​at​ ​which​ ​reactions​ ​occur​ ​and​ ​to​ ​consider​ ​the​ ​factors​ ​that control​ ​these​ ​rates.​ ​​ ​Understand​ ​first,​ ​second,​ ​and​ ​zero​ ​order​ ​rate​ ​law​ ​and​ ​their​ ​corresponding half​ ​lives.

Lesson​ ​10​ ​​ ​Chemical​ ​Equilibrium Focus​ ​on​ ​how​ ​to​ ​express​ ​the​ ​equilibrium​ ​position​ ​of​ ​a​ ​reaction​ ​in​ ​quantitative​ ​terms.​ ​​ ​Study​ ​the factors​ ​that​ ​determine​ ​the​ ​relative​ ​concentration​ ​of​ ​reactants​ ​and​ ​products​ ​in​ ​equilibrium​ ​mixture.

Lesson​ ​11​ ​​ ​Acids​ ​and​ ​Bases We​ ​will​ ​study​ ​the​ ​different​ ​definition​ ​of​ ​acids​ ​and​ ​bases,​ ​acid​ ​strength​ ​(pH),​ ​and​ ​percent dissociation.

Lesson​ ​12​ ​Buffered​ ​Solutions Will​ ​focus​ ​on​ ​understanding​ ​aqueous​ ​solutions​ ​by​ ​looking​ ​at​ ​applications​ ​of​ ​acid-base equilibrium.​ ​​ ​Will​ ​practice​ ​calculating​ ​pH​ ​for​ ​buffered​ ​solutions.​ ​​ ​Will​ ​also​ ​discuss​ ​complex​ ​ions and​ ​solubility​ ​of​ ​slightly​ ​soluble​ ​salts.

Lesson​ ​13​ ​​ ​Electrochemistry Will​ ​focus​ ​on​ ​the​ ​relationship​ ​between​ ​electricity​ ​and​ ​chemical​ ​reactions.

Lesson​ ​14​ ​Organic​ ​Chemistry Review​ ​nomenclature​ ​of​ ​basic​ ​organic​ ​compounds,​ ​such​ ​as​ ​alkanes,​ ​alkenes,​ ​alcohols,​ ​aldehydes, ketones​ ​and​ ​carboxylic​ ​acids.​ ​​ ​Review​ ​basic​ ​reactions.

Lesson​ ​15​ ​TBD I​ ​would​ ​like​ ​to​ ​reserve​ ​one​ ​class​ ​time​ ​to​ ​help​ ​students​ ​review​ ​or,​ ​if​ ​needed,​ ​help​ ​students comprehend​ ​equilibrium/buffered​ ​solutions​ ​or​ ​electrochemistry​ ​more​ ​thoroughly.​ ​​ ​If​ ​each​ ​student understands​ ​all​ ​of​ ​the​ ​topics,​ ​we​ ​will​ ​take​ ​an​ ​AP​ ​practice​ ​exam.
