Chemistry Honors Academic Library (1st semester)

chemistry honors ONLINE

Welcome to Chemistry Honors. This chemistry course will expand upon that knowledge, further develop the microstructure of substances, and teach the symbolic and mathematical world of formulas, equations, and symbols. The major concepts covered are measurement, atomic structure, chemical formulas and bonding, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, gases, chemical equilibrium, and organic chemistry. 

The rigor of this honors course will require students to exercise well-developed research and analytical skills.
Students should see our statement about these courses which are not authored from a biblical worldview. Students uncomfortable with these courses should enroll in our courses from a biblical worldview ​
