Present students with the foundational ideas behind atomic structure, bonding, stoichiometry, nomenclature, kinetic theory, solutions, equilibrium, thermodynamics, acid-base chemistry, electrochemistry, organic and biochemistry, and nuclear chemistry. The text stresses the marvels of design in Creation and promotes the development of organized problem solving.

This curriculum requires lab assignments because chemistry is a laboratory course. Labs are described in the laboratory manual, which is separate from the student text. The suggested teaching schedule designates one class period per chapter as a lab day, although some chapters have more than one lab day.
