Chemistry 30

You will learn about chemical properties, bonds and equilibrium, as well as atomic structures, organic chemistry and electrochemistry. You will investigate what makes materials suitable for use in specific household and industrial applications.

Prerequisite

Physical Science 20

Delivered

Online Asynchronous or Synchronous Live
Summer School: Online Asynchronous only

Credits

Science 30 or Elective 30

What Will I Learn?

You will expand your knowledge of matter and its interactions. You will explore the nature of equilibrium in chemical reactions including solution chemistry and acid-base reactions as well as explore oxidation-reduction reactions and the impact of electrochemistry on society and the environment.

This course will prepare students for university level chemistry. You can learn more about Sask DLC's Science pathways here.

Online Live Class OR Asynchronous Course

You have the option to enroll in the Chemistry 30 synchronous live class course OR the Chemistry 30 online asynchronous course.

  • Synchronous Live Class: you attend a live online class taught by your teacher at a specific time, every school day. If you're interested in enrolling in the Chemistry 30 synchronous course, please review the synchronous live class details and schedule.

  • Online Asynchronous: you work through your online course on a flexible learning schedule, with online support from your teacher.
