AP Chemistry is a college-level course that dives deep into the molecular and atomic structure of matter. It’s ideal for students planning to pursue science, engineering, or medical fields in the future.
This subject is more than just chemical reactions—it’s about understanding how matter behaves, how energy moves through systems, and how to analyze real-world chemical phenomena using logic and data. Here’s a structured view of the syllabus, designed to help you plan your preparation efficiently.
Here’s a unit-wise breakdown with estimated hours and exam weightage to help you prioritize your preparation:
| Unit No. | Unit Title | Estimated Hours | Exam Weighting (MCQ) | Key Topics Covered |
| 1 | Atomic Structure and Properties | 10 hours | 7–9% | Atomic models, electron configuration, periodic trends, photoelectron spectroscopy (PES), Coulomb’s Law |
| 2 | Molecular and Ionic Compound Structure and Properties | 12 hours | 7–9% | Lewis structures, VSEPR theory, molecular polarity, resonance, lattice energy |
| 3 | Intermolecular Forces and Properties | 12 hours | 18–22% | States of matter, phase changes, heating curves, solubility, vapor pressure, chromatography, IMF strength |
| 4 | Chemical Reactions | 10 hours | 7–9% | Synthesis, decomposition, acid-base, redox reactions, net ionic equations, reaction balancing |
| 5 | Kinetics | 12 hours | 7–9% | Reaction rates, rate laws, reaction mechanisms, collision theory, catalysts, graph analysis |
| 6 | Thermodynamics | 12 hours | 7–9% | Enthalpy, calorimetry, Hess’s Law, endo/exothermic reactions |
| 7 | Equilibrium | 14 hours | 7–9% | Dynamic equilibrium, Le Chatelier’s Principle, equilibrium constants (Kc, Kp), ICE tables |
| 8 | Acids and Bases | 14 hours | 11–15% | pH, pOH, Ka/Kb, weak and strong acids and bases, buffers, titrations, indicators, polyprotic acids |
| 9 | Applications of Thermodynamics | 14 hours | 7–9% | Entropy, Gibbs free energy (ΔG), spontaneity, coupling of reactions, electrochemistry, voltaic cells |
Along with the syllabus, we are also giving you a bonus TestprepKart eBook. This is not an academic textbook. It’s more of a helpful guide that answers many common questions students have about AP exams.
If you’re an NRI student, or if you’re not sure how AP scores work, or you’re confused between AP, IB, and A-Levels, this eBook will really help you.
