This resource includes all the content (in Google Slides) that your students need to know to master Unit 2: Compound Structure and Properties.

This product is for Google Slides. You can find a PowerPoint (.pptx) version here: AP Chemistry Lessons for Unit 2: Compound Structure and Properties (PowerPoint)

This product includes eight google slides lessons for each of the topics of Unit 2: Compound Structures and Properties:

Topic 1 – Types of Chemical Bonds

Topic 2 – Intramolecular Force and Potential Energy

Topic 3 – Structure of Ionic Solids

Topic 4 – Structure of Metals and Alloys

Topic 5 – Lewis Diagrams

Topic 6 – Resonance and Formal Charge

Topic 7 – VSEPR and Hybridization

How does it work?

Each Google Slides and topic are aligned to the Learning Objectives and the Essential Knowledges, as outlined by the AP Chemistry course guide*. Each Slides can be edited to make it unique for YOUR classroom!

How much class time will this unit take?

The unit will take approximately twelve to thirteen to 50-minute classes. The pace of the unit will depend on the class and their prior knowledge of chemistry.

How can I implement this product into my class?

There are many ways to incorporate this resource into your class. I use all of these methods every year! 

• Traditional lesson: Guide students through the topics as a whole class. With breakpoints for questions, teacher-led examples, and practice problems for the class, you can work together to help to clear up or clarify any misconceptions right away.
• Flipped Classroom: Students can review the notes as a homework assignment, and class time can be used  to complete an activity, complete a worksheet or problem set, complete a lab or activity, practice FRQs, or work on a project. 
• Test and Exam Review: Students can review the slides as they review for a unit test or the AP Exam. These lessons will pair very well with the daily videos and practice problems available on College Board’s AP Classroom.
