Am I prepared for AP chem?

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>I am absolutely enamored by chemistry, the whole concept of how us, our food, couches, etc are all made up of near infinite little chunks of matter with some electrons floating around. And all the bizarreness of it, like how pure sodium and pure chlorine by themselves will kill you, but when combined they are a necessary nutrient. Love it.
Anyway, I am a sophomore and currently taking Honors Chem and my school doesn't let you take a science AP until senior year (H bio, chem and physics are your first 3 years) and I am planning on taking AP chem. But I've looked at some of the stuff they do in AP chem, and it looks ridonkulous, which has scared me a little bit.</p>

<p>In my H chem class we mostly have done (other than the very basic stuff like writing equations) stoichiometry,solutions and acids and bases (M1V1=M2V2, mol/liter=Molarity, finding pOH when given pH,etc) , net ionic equations, gas laws (boyle's, charles', PV=nRT, ideal/combined gas formulas), thermochemistry (Hess' Law, q=mcat) and we have touched on chemical equilibrium at the end of the semester and just gone over the gist of it (temp, concentration, etc affect equilibrium, removing a product will shift the equation to the right). We also went over some various concepts like electronegativity.
Is this a decent pre-AP Chem class, or am I in for a rude awakening?</p>

<p>That sounds exactly like my honors chem class last year. You should be fine.</p>

3

<p>That sounds like my honors class.
And I’m an IB student.</p>

<p>No concepts of Bonding?</p>

4

<p>We might have, I just don’t remember what it’s called. What specifically do you mean by bonding?
And can someone explain to me how to quote posts?</p>

<p>You do this

then put your quote here then put <a href=“minus%20the%20space%20between%20the%20bracket%20and%20the%20slash,%20of%20course”> /quote</a></p>

<p>Bonding, as in the nature of how things combine and what not.</p>

<p>Your ionics, covalent, polar, metallic.</p>

<p>The idea of bonding shapes and angles and dipoles and what not.</p>

<p>It’s called Bonding.</p>

Ah yeah, all that stuff completely slipped my mind, we did it back in like September</p>
