Chemistry is a physical science but it also is a lab course so it meets letter D of the A-G requirements. Chemistry will explore the Periodic Table, the atom, reactions, states of matter, thermochemistry, electrochemistry, organic chemistry, and nuclear chemistry. Chemistry is a very rigorous class with high expectations that the students regularly meet. If a student is struggling, I encourage them to seek help as soon as possible. Don't wait because what you learn in the Fall you'll use all year long. You can expect an average of one lab per unit. I look forward to a great year together.
