1 AP Chemistry Syllabus Primary Text: Chemistry: The Central Science, 9 th Ed. Brown, Theodore L., H. Eugene Lemay, Jr., Bruce E Bursten, and Julia R. Burdge. Upper Saddle River, New Jersey: Pearson Education, Inc., ISBN Supplemental Text: The Princeton Review: Cracking the AP Chemistry Exam. Foglino, Paul. New York: Random House, Inc., (Students purchase a copy of this book and use it to review for their test at the end of each chapter of Chemistry: The Central Science.) ISBN A TI-83 Graphing calculator is used in this course. All labs are wet labs. A written lab report in a special lab notebook is required for each lab, and includes a complete purpose, procedure, data, calculations, and conclusions with an analysis of at least three sources of error. Several labs involve graphing. The actual hands-on lab time is included in this syllabus. Students are expected to do the lab report at home, and this makes the time spent on labs equal to one double period per week. (We are on block scheduling, so every class is the equivalent of a double period!) Students work in groups of two or three to complete the lab, and discuss their calculations and conclusions with their lab partners. The lab reports, however, must be written individually. Students practice released AP Chemistry Exam questions (Both Essay and Multiple Choice) for every topic listed. Tests are made directly from released questions and similar questions so that students are better prepared to take the AP Chemistry Exam. Students write corrections on the test questions they missed. For questions involving concepts they must explain the correct answer, and for math questions they must show all their work. This will prepare them to answer essay questions on the AP Chemistry Exam. Chemistry II Honors Companion Course, Fall Semester: Day: Topics: 1 Welcome, Review Ions from Chem. I 2-6 Atomic Structure: Isotopes, electron configurations and rules, orbital diagrams, paramagnetism, the 4 quantum numbers, calculation of energy released when electron changes energy levels, c= and E=h, history of the atom, de Broglie equation and matter waves, Heisenberg uncertainty principle 7 Ions Test, Practice old AP questions, Miss Mess demo (safety)
