Chemistry is the study of matter, its composition and the changes it undergoes. In Applied Chemistry we explore many different topics including: structure of matter, behaviors of matter, and the properties pertaining to the changes in matter. This course consists of laboratory and learning experiences where we examine the concepts found within the LPS Applied Chemistry Curriculum.
