Second Semester

Chimie 12/Chimie avancée 12 consists of four units of study:

Unit 1: Thermochemical Changes - explores how heat, a form of energy, is absorbed or released in chemical reactions. Changes in physical and chemical systems are explored;

Unit 2: Equilibrium: Acids and Bases in Chemical Changes – explains that few chemical reactions proceed in only one direction and investigates chemical systems at equilibrium;

Unit 3: Solutions, Kinetics and Equilibrium – focuses to develop the understanding of mixtures, solutions, bonding and the stoichiometry that relates. This investigation leads to factors that affect the rates of chemical reactions, chemical equilibrium and quantitative treatment of reaction systems;

Unit 4: Electrochemical Changes – examines electrochemical systems, analyses of oxidation-reduction systems, and quantifies the matter and energy involved.

Chimie avancée 12

Chimie avancée 12 is an enriched version of Chimie 12 for students with above-average ability, with a particular interest in the subject and who are self-motivated. Topics of study are the same as those for Chimie 12 (Properties of Solutions; Thermochemistry; Kinetics; Solution Equilibria; Acid, Bases and Salts; Oxidation and Reduction Reactions; and, Electrochemistry) but are covered in more depth.
