Course Description:

The purpose of Chemistry 1 is to develop an understanding of the periodic table and the composition of matter to produce the wide variety of substances that make up the physical universe. Students will utilize science and engineering practices to investigate matter and its composition, bonding, formulas, equations, stoichiometry, solutions, behavior of matter, and acid-base chemistry. This course is designed for the college or technical school bound student who may or may not be planning a career within a scientific field. Students will gain a comprehensive foundation for problem solving, laboratory procedures, material composition and real-world applications of science. Critical thinking and problem-solving skills are used to demonstrate comprehension of the chemical composition of the world. Within the Chemistry 1 course, guided instruction will be used to introduce or expand on chemistry concepts.
