Camp will start at the smallest building block for chemistry, the electron. From there, we will understand its relevance to creating atoms. We will link that atoms can represent different elements from the periodic table. Students will learn to calculate the amount of neutrons, protons and electrons in each element. We will understand the relevance of electron orbitals and the reasons why elements bond. Students will create individual atoms, molecules and calculate molar mass of these molecules. They will also identify what elements and quantities make up molecular formulas. Students will be given information to recognize and classify bonds. Finally students will be introduced to balancing chemical equations. This is a highly interactive camp that will help  students understand major concepts in high school and college chemistry.
