A Few Things You Might Want To Know
This is a summary of AP Chemistry material that has a significant likelihood of appearing on the exam. It does not -- by any means -- substitute note-taking and the use of a decent review book. -
AP Chemistry Equations
150 sample problems grouped in 30 sections of 5 questions each. Do all of them. -
Equations in the AP Chemistry Exam
The part of the AP Chem exam that is called "descriptive chemistry" requires you to translate a written description of a reaction into an equation showing the particles involved. This is a guide to help you get started. -
How to balance complex redox reactions
Most redox equations can be balanced by examining the total number of transferred electrons. However, some reactions are pH-dependant and harder to balance. This file shows a step-by-step procedure that is pretty reliable. -
Ideal and real gases
This is a brief derivation of the Van-der-Waals equation of real gases. It explains the deviation of pressure and volume of gases from their predicted ideal behavior. -
Inorganic Nomenclature (Acids and Salts)
Basic inorganic nomenclature, not including the nomenclature of coordination compounds. -
Organic nomenclature
Simple organic nomenclature including nomenclature of carbon-carbon bonds and condensed structural formulas of compounds with heteroatoms. -
Solubility rules
Memorization of this sheet is essential to predict the solubility of simple inorganic ionic substances.Sorry, but it can't be helped. -
Some common cat- and anions
This is a list of common cat- and anions that complements the worksheet on inorganic nomenclature.Memorize it. -
VSEPR description of molecules
A brief overview of how basic bond and molecule geometries depend on the total number of bonding and lone electron pairs. This sheet includes common examples. -
VSEPR Practice Problems
This package includes practice problems re: molecule and electron-domain geometry and the prediction of bond angles and molecule polarities.
