Chemistry, Grade 11 (University Preparation)

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Uncovering the Secrets of Matter

In this course, you’ll dive deeper into the fascinating world of chemistry and explore the properties of chemicals and chemical bonds.

You’ll study and investigate a range of topics, including:

•  The properties of chemicals and how they interact with each other
•  Chemical reactions and how to quantify and analyze them
•  Solutions and solubility: how substances dissolve and interact in different environments
•  Atmospheric chemistry: the behavior of gases and how they impact our planet
•  The impact of common chemical reactions on society and the environment

Through hands-on investigations and analytical activities, you’ll develop critical thinking skills and learn to investigate the qualitative and quantitative properties of matter.

You’ll gain a deeper understanding of the chemical world and how it affects our daily lives.
