This episode will now discuss the content of the AP Chemistry curriculum by describing the nine units outlined in the CED and their connections. Unit 1 starts with the foundation of atomic structure and properties (1:43). In Unit 2, building on the foundation, students will learn about molecular and ionic compound structure and properties (2:27). Unit 3 then focuses on the intermolecular forces and properties (3:03), which are part of physical changes. In Unit 4 students will learn about chemical changes while being introduced to chemical reactions and stoichiometry (3:52). Unit 5 takes a closer look at the rate of a reaction and the which factors influence it (4:33). In Unit 6 the focus shifts towards the big idea of energy when talking about thermodynamics (5:15). Unit 7 lays the foundation for units 8 and 9, since it discusses chemical equilibrium (5:37). Unit 8 is an application of chemical equilibrium using acid-base chemistry (6:25). Unit 9, applications of thermodynamics has especially strong ties to unit 6 and 7 (7:12).Question of the day: Which unit is most heavily weighted on the exam?
