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. AP
Chemistry is open to all students that have completed a year of chemistry who wish to take part in a
rigorous and academically challenging course. This course is structured around the six big ideas
articulated in the AP Chemistry curriculum framework provided by the College Board. [CR2] A special
emphasis will be placed on the seven science practices, which capture important aspects of the work
that scientists engage in, with learning objectives that combine content with inquiry and reasoning skills.
Emphasis is placed on depth of understanding of a topic, rather than breadth of topics. In addition,
students will spend at least five hours a week studying outside of class.
LABORATORY PROGRAM
The laboratory activities are comprised of “hands-on” labs so the students can accomplish multiple trials
and can use statistical analysis to derive conclusions. Students are required to have a bound
composition book and a three ring binder, which will be used as their lab portfolio. A minimum of 25
percent of instructional time is dedicated to lab activities. [CR5a]
Inquiry is emphasized in many of the experiments that students complete. The labs completed require
following or developing process and procedures, taking observations, and data manipulation. At
minimum, six of the labs are guided-inquiry based. Students will communicate and collaborate in lab
groups; however, each student will submit for grading a typed laboratory report or a written lab report
in a lab notebook for every lab they perform. [CR7]
Every lab assignment must have a lab report including the following in order to receive maximum credit.
We will require two versions of a lab report. Version I will be for all standard labs and Version II will be
for the guided-inquiry labs. All Version I labs will be in a bound, composition book. All Version II labs
will be typed out.

FINAL EXIT ASSESSMENT
AP Chemistry Poster Board Guidelines and Laboratory Binder Portfolio
All students will generate a laboratory binder portfolio, which will contain a table of contents, all typed
laboratory handouts, and copies of all returned laboratory reports with dividers separating each
laboratory experience.
Each designated lab group will perform a 10-minute poster board presentation on the laboratory
experience of their choice. Poster boards can be the standard poster board used at most science fair
competitions. A 3’x4’ (36” x 48”) board is acceptable. The boards should securely stand on a table and
fold/bend into a 4 foot squared section. The Abstract needs to be placed in the top left corner. The
Title, Student’s Name, AP period, and School Name should be placed in the top center. All other slides
can be placed in a logical manner on the board.

Abstract: Summary and Summation of Lab
Review of Literature: Provides past research reported in literature and background information.
Introduces the topic historically and scientifically. Presented in a logical order, which will lead to the
statement of purpose or rationale for the work.
Statement of Purpose/Hypothesis: Identifies a clear prediction or outcome to an event. Identifies the
questions that the research seeks to explain.
Methods and Materials: Lists and/or demonstrates the use of equipment and supplies, and describes
procedures to be used to execute the experiment.
Results: Because the experiment has not been conducted yet, write the results you anticipate that
would support your hypothesis. Data tables and graphs must be included.
Analysis and Discussion: The student explains and interprets the rationale regarding their scientific
research area.
Conclusion: States whether or not the results support the hypothesis, suggests future research, and
discusses the importance this research has to the scientific community or society.
Applications: How is this experiment related to everyday world applications, major societal or
technological components (e.g., concerns, technological advances, innovations) such as how
spectroscopy can be used to distinguish real art from a forgery? [CR4]
