Course Description: The purpose of Advanced Placement Chemistry is to provide a college level course in chemistry and to prepare the student to seek credit and/or appropriate placement in college chemistry courses. There is one section of AP chemistry each year with juniors and seniors. All students have had one year of chemistry I prior to taking AP Chemistry. This course meets five times per week for a single 45 minute period and a 90 minute laboratory period. Total class time each week will be 315 minutes, which will include 90 minutes of lab time. Little time is spent on lecture since it is my philosophy that learning is active not passive. Students are engaged in hands -on laboratory work, integrated throughout the course that accounts for more than 25% of the class time. 2 [CR5a] Emphasis is placed on depth of understanding of a topic, rather than breadth of topics. One day per week is spent in study groups using old AP Chemistry Free Response questions/Study Guides for review. Objectives: Students will: 1. Learn the inquiry process through numerous laboratory investigations. 2. Gain an understanding of the six big ideas as articulated in the AP Chemistry Curriculum Framework. [CR2] 3. Apply mathematical and scientific knowledge and skills to solve quantitative, qualitative, spatial, and analytic problems. 4. Apply basic arithmetic, algebraic, and geometric concepts. 5. Formulate strategies for the development and testing of hypotheses. 6. Use basic statistical concepts to draw both inferences and conclusions from data. 7. Identify implications and consequences of drawn conclusions. 8. Use manipulative and technological tools. 9. Measure, compare, order, scale, locate, and code accurately. 10. Do scientific research and report and display the results of this research. 11. Learn to think critically in order to solve problems.

Summer Assignment - Each student completed a summer assignment that was designed to review chemistry I and identify what students needed to learn before the start of AP Chemistry. The assignment covered chapters 1-5, and parts of chapters 8 and 9. It was designed to include between 5 – 10 questions per topic. Students will be tested on material approximately two weeks into the year. 2. Classes – Every class period is designed to be interactive with the students. The types of classes are lecture, questions and answers, use of the Smart Board, video clips, demonstrations, and group activities. 3. Working Together - During all types of class time, students are encouraged to participate and help in the process. Students are also encouraged to collaborate with each other. It is expected that the students work cooperatively to analyze problems systematically. 4. Homework – Each chapter will have a set of problems that are required for each student to complete. Students will also be required to complete chapter reviews that will include questions from past AP Chemistry test to help prepare them for the test. 5. Quizzes – Every chapter will include one quiz (two for the long chapters). The quizzes will include both multiple choice and free response questions from old AP exams. 6. Tests – Each Unit will end with a multiple-choice test, students will have 90 minutes to complete the test. A comprehensive, standardized semester exam is administered at the end of 1 st semester and a final exam at the end of the year. 7. Labs – All of the laboratory experiments in this course are hands-on. One double period a week will be used for labs. All students will complete at least 16 of the suggested 22 labs. They will work with a lab partner, and when needed, two lab groups will work together. They will follow all safety rules and lab directions to collect, process, manipulate, and graph both quantitative and qualitative data. Students will keep a lab notebook, where they will set up the lab, record all observations, do calculations, error analysis, and write their conclusion. Formal lab reports will be typed after the labs are completed for 6 labs. The back of the lab notebook will have a chemical reference; students will add one of the chemicals used in the lab experiment. Inquiry is emphasized in many of the experiments that students complete. The laboratory work requires students to design, carry out, and analyze data using guided inquiry principles. For all labs, students are required to report the purpose, procedure, all data, data analysis, error analysis, results, and conclusions in a lab report that is submitted for grading. [CR7] All laboratory experiments are intended to be completed in one double period (95 minutes) except the following guided-inquiry labs that require two days of work or two double lab periods: 1. Determination of the Formula of a Compound 2. Finding the Ratio of Moles of Reactants in a Chemical Reaction 3. Progressive Precipitation 4. Relationship Between the Spectrum and Absorbance of Light 5. Conductivity of Solids & Metals 6. Factors that affect reaction rates and determining reaction rates and reaction mechanisms 7. E q u i l i b r i u m P os i t i o n 8. H ydrol ysis of Salt s 9. El ect roch em i cal C el l s All other labs: 10. Determination of Molar Volume of a Gas 11. Standardization of a Solution using a Primary Standard 12.Determination of Concentration by Oxidation-Reduction Titration 13. Determination of Molar Volume of a Gas 14. Determination of Enthalpy Change associated with a Reaction 15. Determination of Electrochemical Series 16. Electroplating 17. Freezing Point Depression to Determine Molar Mass 18. Determination of Molar Mass by Vapor Density 19. Preparation and the Properties of Buffer Solutions 20. Preparation of Aspirin and Analysis of Product Purity 8. Grading System – Student’s grades are based on categories. Total points earned divided by points offered for type of assignment then multiplied by the following percentage: Homework 5%, Classwork 10%, Projects 10%, Lab 25%, Tests/Quizzes 20%, and Midterm/Final 30%. Projects will be an analysis of an old chemical apparatus in quarter 1, a 5-page Research Paper in quarter 2, a poster on a chemist using the Chemical Heritage website for quarter 3, and a group lesson/powerpoint on one of the types of organic compounds for quarter 4. 9. AP review sessions - are held every Tuesday for the school year. Two full AP Practice exams will be taken, one in February and one in April. The students will also take three Multiple Choice practice exams through out the school year. In class review will begin 3 weeks before the exam, where students will complete one free response and 5 multiple choice questions daily and review the topic of the day. 10. AP Exam – all students taking the AP Chemistry class are expected to take the AP Chemistry Exam in May. 11. After the AP exam – We will work on Organic Chemistry. Students will have a combination of lecture, group work, and labs for Organic Chemistry. 12. Technology – Students will use Scientific Calculators in both their class work and laboratory work. Graphs are produced using excel. Students will have access to the internet and computers for work both in and outside of class. Edmodo and the class website will be used by the students and teacher to communicate. 13. Lab Notebook - A laboratory notebook is required for the course. All completed lab reports documenting all lab experiences must be included in the notebook. The notebook is checked every three weeks with a final check at the end of the course. [CR7] 14. Quartly Assingments - This course provides students with the opportunity to connect their knowledge of chemistry and science to major societal or technological components by looking at the concerns, technological advances, and innovations to help them become scientifically literate citizens. Quarter 1 Project: Students will identify older chemistry apparatuses; determine the uses, who discovered it, and the technological advancements in this chemistry apparatuses. Quarter 2 Project: Students will write a 5 page research paper on an everyday object. In the research paper students will identify who invented this object, how the innovation was discovered, what was the purpose of the invention, any new improvements, and the chemistry behind it. Quarter 3 Project: Students will create a poster on a chemist using the Chemical Heritage Society website. They will include background on the chemist, what the discovery was, and how and when it was discovered. Quarter 4 Project: Students will work in small groups to research and present one of the functional groups of Organic Chemistry to their classmates.
