This course (16 weeks) will cover the second semester of general high school chemistry. Students will learn chemistry with real-world applications in a fun, exciting way. I set this course up to mirror a general chemistry course using NGSS standards. This will ensure that your student has a cohesive class sequenced in a manner designed to help students make sense of the material and the reasons behind learning this subject matter. Each week will include note sheets, practice problems, and a review. I will have suggestions and examples of chemistry lab activities, but due to the format of this course, it does not include a mandatory laboratory portion. ⭐Unit 5 - Energy and Chemical Reactions Week 1 - Energy Changes in Chemical Reactions (HS-PS1-4, HS-PS1-5, and HS-PS1-6) Lesson #1 - Calculating Bond Energy Lesson #2 - Endothermic and Exothermic Calculations Week 2 - Enthalpy and Entropy(HS-PS1-4, HS-PS1-5, and HS-PS1-6) Lesson #3 - Enthalpy Lesson #4 - Entropy Unit 5 Test - Digital ⭐Unit 6 - Reaction Rates Week 3 -Calculating and Determining Reaction Rates (HS-PS1-4, HS-PS1-5, and HS-PS1-6) Lesson #5 - Calculating Rates Lesson #6 - Factors Affecting Reaction Rates Week 4 - Collision Theory (HS-PS1-4, HS-PS1-5, and HS-PS1-6) Lesson #7 - Collision Theory Lesson #8 - Interpreting Data Week 5 - Catalysts (HS-PS1-4, HS-PS1-5, and HS-PS1-6) Lesson #9 - Catalysts Lesson #10 - Catalysts and Application Week 6 - Chemical Equilibrium (HS-PS1-4, HS-PS1-5, and HS-PS1-6) Lesson #11 - Reversible Reactions Lesson #12 - Factors Affecting Equilibrium and Calculations Week 7 - Acids (HS-PS1-1) Lesson #13 - Introducing Acids and pH Lesson #14 -Strong Acids and pH Calculations Week 8 - Bases (HS-PS1-!)

Learning Goals
As stated by the NGSS:
⭐HS-PS1-1: Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms.
⭐HS-PS1-2: Construct and revise an explanation for the outcome of a simple chemical reaction based on the outermost electron states of atoms, trends in the periodic table, and knowledge of the patterns of chemical properties.
⭐HS-PS1-4: Develop a model to illustrate that the release or absorption of energy from a chemical reaction system depends upon the changes in total bond energy.
⭐HS-PS1-5: Apply scientific principles and evidence to provide an explanation about the effects of changing the temperature or concentration of the reacting particles on the rate at which a reaction occurs.
⭐HS-PS1-6: Refine the design of a chemical system by specifying a change in conditions that would produce increased amounts of products at equilibrium.
⭐HS-PS1-7: Use mathematical representations to support the claim that atoms, and therefore mass, are conserved during a chemical reaction.
⭐HS-PS1-8: Develop models to illustrate the changes in the composition of the nucleus of the atom and the energy released during the processes of fission, fusion, and radioactive decay.
⭐HS-PS2-6: Investigating or designing new systems or structures requires a detailed examination of the properties of different materials, the structures of different components, and connections of components to reveal their function and/or solve a problem.Syllabus

Parental Guidance
**Any lab activities conducted at home are under the student and family's responsibility since there is no lab portion to this class.**
While we discuss specific substances and the chemistry behind them, stringent laboratory safety guidelines need to be followed, which is impossible in this environment.
Supply List
The teacher provided note sheets, supplemental video links, and articles that students will need will be provided the Sunday before class each week.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Indiana Teaching Certificate in Science
Bachelor's Degree in Science from Ball State University
Welcome to my Outschool profile! I'm an enthusiastic science educator with a passion for inspiring young minds. With over a decade of teaching experience, I specialize in middle and high school sciences, including chemistry, physics, and biology.
My approach to teaching is all about making science relatable, exciting, and empowering for students. I focus not just on the facts but on teaching them how to think like scientists, solve problems, and use scientific language effectively. This builds their confidence and helps them see science as a skill they can master, opening doors to further exploration and advanced studies.
Whether you're looking for ongoing classes, one-time sessions, or semester-long courses, I offer a range of options to suit your needs. I'm also available for personalized tutoring and test preparation. If you are still looking for a time or topic that fits your schedule, feel free to reach out, and I'll do my best to accommodate you.
Let's embark on a journey of discovery and learning together! I can't wait to share my love for science with your students. Contact me to discuss how we can make science come alive in a way that's meaningful and fun for them. See you in class!Reviews
