What Others Are Saying About Exploring Creation with Chemistry, 3rd Edition:

“I have used your fantastic curriculum for biology, advanced biology, chemistry, advanced chemistry, and physics. These books have allowed me to pursue my goal to become a medical doctor. I’m currently using your advanced biology to study for the MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test). Thanks so much!”

College Student

“Our family enjoys Apologia’s conversational style, familiar to students raised on Charlotte Mason-style living books. We also appreciate the seamless addition of Scripture and Creation information in Exploring Creation with Chemistry; it better prepares us to give solid scientific answers to support our Biblical beliefs without compromising our faith or scientific integrity. Ultimately, there is no better reason to study chemistry, and this is where Apologia excels. Overall, we appreciate how well Apologia’s award-winning chemistry program plucks panicked parents out of the quicksand and sets them on solid Biblical and scientific ground.”

Christy Bagasao, The Old Schoolhouse Magazine

“The authors have done a great job constructing lab activities with low-cost equipment while providing enough experience for a solid college-prep course.”

Review of Exploring Creation with Chemistry, 3rd Edition

Overview of Apologia’s Exploring Creation with Chemistry, 3rd Edition, Softcover Textbook

High school students who study chemistry with Apologia are equipped not only for future college studies but more importantly, life! We aren’t just an academically rigorous textbook. Using a conversational tone, we present challenging science concepts and thought-provoking experiments in an easily navigated, personalized format to help students methodically learn, self-check, and master difficult concepts before moving on. We keep science relevant as well as in its proper place as the means to explore creation!

We recommend that students taking this course be proficient at an algebra math level. Topics include significant figures, units, classification, the mole concept, stoichiometry, thermochemistry, thermodynamics, kinetics, acids and basics, redox reactions, solutions, atomic structure, Lewis structures, molecular geometry, gas laws, and equilibrium. Experiments include measuring specific heat, discovering the electrical conductivity of compounds dissolved in water, measuring the width of a molecule, exploring freezing, point depression, using the ideal gas equation, recognizing the effects of catalysts, and much more.

Exploring Creation with Chemistry, 3rd Edition, provides a detailed introduction to the methods and concepts of general chemistry, as well as a multitude of chemistry lab experiments that develop the concepts further.

The 16 modules and their experiments in this course cover:

• • Measurement, Units, and the Scientific Method.
  • Atoms and Molecules
  • Atomic Structure
  • Molecular Structure
  • Polyatomic Ions and Molecular Geometry
  • Changes in Matter and Chemical Reactions
  • Describing Chemical Reactions
  • Stoichiometry
  • Acid-Base Chemistry
  • The Chemistry of Solutions
  • The Gas Phase
  • Energy, Heat, and Temperature
  • Thermodynamics
  • Kinetics
  • Chemical Equilibrium
  • Reduction-Oxidation Reaction

The experiments in this chemistry course require mostly common household materials in addition to the Chemistry Glassware Set, which contains the tools and utensils to complete the experiments. You can find a complete Lab Supply List by clicking here.
