AP Chemistry Summer Assignment 2002-2003



AP Chemistry Summer Assignment 2015-2016

Mr. Smith

Woodland High School

This is a list of your summer assignments for AP Chemistry next year. AP Chemistry is an extremely fast paced course and it is necessary that you come to this course ready to work from Day 1. It will be very important for you to read each and every chapter several times in order to get the maximum benefit out of this course.

We will begin by reviewing what you have done in Chemistry I. This is basically the first three chapters of the book. I will ask that you thoroughly read and take notes on these chapters this summer, so that you are well prepared to take on even more challenges as the days and weeks go on. This would be a very good time for you to learn how to make note-cards on your reading and class notes. Note-cards can be a valuable tool as you begin to get into college level work. These cards should contain important notes and explanations on one side, with key words on the other. It is important that you be able to explain processes as well as solve problems. Since we cannot go over everything in detail, much of what we do will have to come from the textbook. In addition, you may want to review your Chemistry I notes pertaining to each section and place these on note cards as well (I strongly encourage you to do this, since it will be expected that you remember details that were covered in Chem. I).

The following assignment will be reviewed in class beginning on the first day of school. I will take questions on any problems you may have had from this assignment on the first few days of class. Therefore you need to have your material with you on the first day. Please come prepared. The blue problems in the book have the answers in the back. I encourage you to check your answers to these each and every time.

If you have any questions please feel email me at christophersmith@henry.k12.ga.us. If you are having problems with any of those assigned you are encouraged to do so. Do not wait until the last minute to do these assignments. It will take a while. You will not be able to do all of this the week before school starts. You may want to use the following resources as help for the assignment that follows as well as throughout the year. You may also find some of your own.







Summer Assignment:

1. Read Chap. 1 pg. 1-29. Thoroughly read and take notes. Use note cards where appropriate. Review Chem. I notes over these topics. Work problems pg. 30-33 # 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 25, 27, 30, 34, 36, 39, 43.

2. Read Chap. 2 pg. 37-67. Thoroughly read and take notes. Use note cards where appropriate. Review Chem. I notes over these topics. Work problems pg. 70-77 # 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 20, 21, 22, 23, 30, 31, 42, 43, 51, 52, 54, 56, 60, 61, 62, 66, 68, 75, 76, 77, 78, 90.

3. Read Chapter 3 pg. 79-121. Thoroughly read and take notes. Use note cards where appropriate. Review Chem. I notes over these topics. Work problems pg. 79-106 # 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 24, 27, 33, 49, 51, 54, 57, 63, 66.

4. Review writing net ionic equations. This is a very important part of AP Chemistry and we will have a quiz over equations every week. It is important that you completely understand this process. You are expected to know the Solubility Rules listed on pg. 125 in the textbook issued to you this summer and on the attached page. Memorize them!! We will have a quiz on Friday the first week of school over these.

5. Memorize all polyatomic ion formulas and charges. They are listed on the handout attached to this page. Review these from Chem. I, as well. You will have a test over these on the third day of class. You also need to know the monatomic ions listed on pages 60 (Table 2.4), 62(Table 2.5).

6. Write noble gas electron configurations for the following elements: Ag, Ba, U, Li, Cr, Hg, Er, Se, Br, Hf.

Do your best. Do not panic!! You know how to do all of these things. It may take some review before you feel comfortable with them however. Review your Chem. I notes.
