About the Real AP Chemistry Exam

The AP Chemistry exam is a college-level test administered by the College Board. Scoring a 3 or higher (on a 1-5 scale) can earn you college credit at thousands of universities, saving you time and tuition money. Over 3 million students take AP exams each year.

Our AP Chemistry Practice Test

Our AP Chemistry practice test contains 52 original multiple-choice questions matching the current AP Chemistry exam format. Questions are aligned to the College Board's course description and reflect the same topic weighting, difficulty distribution, and question styles found on the real exam.

What to Expect

Try a Sample Question

AP Chemistry — Sample
An atom of an element has an atomic number of 27. What is the ground-state electron configuration of its most common ion with a +3 charge?
A \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^6\)
B \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^2 3d^4\)
C \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^7\)
D \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^1 3d^5\)
Explanation. The correct answer is A. To determine the ground-state electron configuration of an ion, you first write the configuration for the neutral atom and then remove electrons. For an atom with atomic number 27 (Cobalt), the neutral electron configuration is \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^2 3d^7\). When forming a positive ion, electrons are removed from the orbitals with the highest principal quantum num
