  • Intermolecular Forces

Unit 2: Chemical Reactions

This unit introduces different reaction types and emphasizes balancing and safety.
Lessons include:
  • Types of Chemical Reactions

  • Balancing Chemical Equations

  • The Activity Series

  • Reactions in Everyday Life

  • Safety in Chemical Handling

Unit 3: Quantities in Chemical Reactions

Students perform mole-based calculations and investigate quantitative relationships.
Lessons include:
  • The Mole Concept

  • Molar Mass and Avogadro’s Number

  • Empirical and Molecular Formulas

  • Percent Composition

  • Stoichiometry and Limiting Reactants

  • Yield and Efficiency

Unit 4: Solutions and Solubility
