Overview of Grade 12 Chemistry (SCH4U)

Grade 12 Chemistry enables students to deepen their understanding of chemistry through the study of organic chemistry, the structure and properties of matter, energy changes and rates of reaction, equilibrium in chemical systems, and electrochemistry. Students will further develop their problem-solving and investigation skills as they investigate chemical processes, and will refine their ability to communicate scientific information. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of chemistry in everyday life and on evaluating the impact of chemical technology on the environment.

York Region Tutoring urges all students to complete the past tests that we have compiled specifically from YRDSB/YCDSB school teachers. Tests in the Grade 12 maths and sciences tend to follow a very strict layout, and so completing them will give students the opportunity to assess their strengths and weaknesses as well as direct their attention to topics that require more attention. Completing past tests also allows students to approach school evaluations with more confidence as they are familiarized with the organization of the test & general nature of questions asked. *Please note: while there are clear trends in the types of questions asked on tests, it is not guaranteed that past test questions will map perfectly onto school evaluations, since test-making is ultimately a subjective endeavor, meaning teachers can and do exercise their creative liberties when writing tests.

Grade 12 Chemistry Ontario Curriculum (University) Breakdown

Organic Chemistry
Click to expand
  • Organic compounds have predictable chemical and physical properties determined by their respective structures.
  • Organic chemical reactions and their applications have significant implications for society, human health, and the environment.
Structure and Properties of Matter
Click to expand
  • The nature of the attractive forces that exist between particles in a substance determines the properties and limits the uses of that substance.
  • Technological devices that are based on the principles of atomic and molecular structures can have societal benefits and costs.
Energy Changes and Rates of Reaction
Click to expand
  • Energy changes and rates of chemical reactions can be described quantitatively.
  • Efficiency of chemical reactions can be improved by applying optimal conditions.
  • Technologies that transform energy can have societal and environmental costs and benefits.
Chemical Systems and Equilibrium
Click to expand
  • Chemical systems are dynamic and respond to changing conditions in predictable ways.
  • Applications of chemical systems at equilibrium have significant implications for nature and industry.
Electrochemistry
Click to expand
  • Oxidation and reduction are paired chemical reactions in which electrons are transferred from one substance to another in a predictable way.
  • The control and applications of oxidation and reduction reactions have significant implications for industry, health and safety, and the environment

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN OUR LESSONS?

York Region Tutoring Provides

Write Past Tests

If a student is approaching a forthcoming test, we can provide them with a previous test to be completed at home before their upcoming session. Subsequently, during their next class, just before the exam, they can review the test with their tutor. These tests are exclusively sourced from high schools in York Region and other areas in Ontario, serving as the definitive benchmark for students to assess their readiness.

We Come To Class Prepared

York Region Tutors and are equipped with drawing tablets making collaboration simple, efficient and effective. We also offer drawing tablets at a discount for purchase to students who really take to the functionality of the product.

YRDSB-Minded Homework

At the parents' request, following each tutoring session, our tutors can assign homework tailored to address weaknesses and reinforce strengths in students. Additionally, we incorporate homework questions directly extracted from previous tests and quizzes administered by YRDSB school teachers, allowing students to familiarize themselves with potential test questions.
