Here is the unit-by-unit breakdown of the core themes and learning outcomes covered across Alberta high school chemistry levels:
Science 10 (Energy and Matter in Chemical Change)
Science 10 establishes the foundational chemical nomenclature and quantitative relationships necessary for senior science courses:
Naming & Writing Compounds
Mastering IUPAC nomenclature, ionic and molecular compounds, and writing balanced chemical equations for various reaction types.
The Mole Concept & Energy
Introduction to the mole as a counting unit, molar mass calculations, and tracking energy changes in chemical reactions.
Chemistry 20
Chemistry 20 dives deeper into solution chemistry, quantitative stoichiometry, bonding theories, and gas laws:
Diversity of Matter & Bonding
Bonding types, electronegativity, molecular shapes, intermolecular forces, and properties of solutions.
Forms of Matter: Gases
Gas laws, pressure-volume-temperature relationships, and the Ideal Gas Law (PV = nRT).
Quantities in Chemistry
Stoichiometry, concentration calculations (mol/L), limiting and excess reagents, and percent yield.
Chemistry 30 (Diploma Course)
A rigorous senior course culminating in the Alberta Provincial Diploma Examination, focusing on thermodynamics, electrochemistry, equilibrium, and organic chemistry:
Thermochemistry
Enthalpy changes, thermochemical equations, Hess's Law, and calorimetry experiments.
Electrochemical Changes
Redox reactions, oxidation numbers, standard reduction potentials, and galvanic/electrolytic cells.
Chemical Equilibrium
Dynamic systems, equilibrium laws (Kc), Le Chatelier's principle, and acid-base ionization (Ka, Kb, pH).
Organic Chemistry
Hydrocarbon structures, functional groups, nomenclature, addition/substitution, and polymerization.
Chemistry 30 Diploma Exam & National Contests
Alberta students preparing for provincial diploma examinations receive targeted practice with past diploma-style questions, multi-variable problem breakdown, and time-management strategies. In addition, Alberta students are fully supported in competing in national events like the Avogadro Exam and the Canadian Chemistry Contest (CCC).
