Detailed Ontario Curriculum Breakdown

Unlike our universal national summaries, here is the exact unit-by-unit breakdown of the curriculum strands covered in Ontario high school courses:

Grade 10

Science (SNC2D - Academic)

This course enables students to enhance their understanding of concepts in biology, chemistry, earth and space science, and physics. The chemistry component focuses on:

Chemical Reactions & Nomenclature

Writing formulas and naming ionic, molecular, and acid compounds; balancing synthesis, decomposition, displacement, and combustion equations.

Acids and Bases

Investigating the properties of acids and bases, the pH scale, neutralization reactions, and practical environmental applications.

Grade 11

Chemistry (SCH3U - University Preparation)

This course focuses on the concepts and theories that form the basis of chemistry. Students develop analytical skills and study quantitative chemistry:

Matter & Bonding

Periodic trends, atomic structure, Lewis structures, VSEPR molecular shapes, and intermolecular forces.

Stoichiometry

The mole concept, molar mass, percentage composition, empirical and molecular formulas, limiting reagents, and percent yield calculations.

Solutions & Gases

Concentration calculations (mol/L), dilutions, aqueous solutions, and gas laws (PV = nRT).

Grade 12

Chemistry (SCH4U - University Preparation)

This rigorous course deepens students' scientific understanding of chemistry through advanced theoretical study and complex laboratory-style problem solving:

Organic Chemistry

Hydrocarbons, functional groups, nomenclature, structural isomerism, organic reaction mechanisms, and polymers.

Equilibrium & Kinetics

Reaction rates, rate laws, dynamic equilibrium, equilibrium constants (Kc, Kp), Le Chatelier's principle, and acid-base buffers (Ka, Kb).

Electrochemistry

Oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions, half-cell potentials, galvanic cells, standard cell potentials, and electrolytic cells.

Academic Enrichment

Ontario Contest Opportunities: Avogadro & Chem-13

Ontario students have direct local access to premier provincial and national competitions hosted by the University of Waterloo, including the Avogadro Exam (for Grade 11 students) and the Chem-13 News Exam (for Grade 12 students). I provide dedicated coaching to help students tackle these challenging exams with top scores.
