Virginia Chemistry Practice Tests
These full-length tests are written to match the Chemistry Standards of Learning (SOL) End-of-Course Test, same question styles, same balance of topics, with a timer and full explanations.
Each test has 80 questions and a 100-minute timer you can switch off. Multiple choice, select-all, numerical fill-in, ordered-response and hot-spot questions are all included, and every question comes back with a worked explanation. Tests open right here on the page.
Virginia Chemistry Study Tools
Two free tools that open right here on the page. Use them between practice tests to close the gaps the score report shows you.
Chemistry Flashcards
194 cards across all nine units, every term, formula and rule a high-school chemistry course expects you to recall on sight. Shuffle, flip, and star the ones you miss.
Chemistry Quick Review
64 cards of big ideas, must-know facts, easy-to-confuse pairs and exam traps. Built for the night before, when you need the whole course in one pass.
Both tools are the same for every state, because the chemistry is. What changes state to state is the exam wrapped around it. That is what the practice tests above handle.
Join students who study with a clearer path
This online center is part of the Effortless Math library for high-school chemistry. We connect lessons, worksheets, practice tests, books, and tools so students can study with a clearer next step.

Virginia Chemistry Standards and Assessment
Virginia takes a chemistry-specific state exam, the Chemistry Standards of Learning (SOL) End-of-Course Test.
| Standards | Virginia Standards of Learning – 2018 Science Standards of Learning (the 2018 Chemistry blueprint takes effect with the spring 2026 administration, replacing the 2010 version) |
|---|---|
| Course name | Chemistry |
| State exam | Chemistry Standards of Learning (SOL) End-of-Course Test |
| Chemistry-specific exam | Yes |
| Question types | multiple choice technology-sharper items |
| Reference materials | Periodic Table of Elements – shipped with secure paper/pencil materials and available on the TestNav toolbar for online testers |
| Required to graduate | No |
What this means for you
Virginia is the one state in this batch with a live chemistry-only state exam: an end-of-course Chemistry SOL, newly re-blueprinted against the 2018 Science SOL for spring 2026. Item count and time limit could not be verified – the 2018 Chemistry blueprint is published as a.docx that could not be parsed, and VDOE does not publish SOL time limits (SOL tests are effectively untimed within the school day); for scale only, the comparable 2010 Biology blueprint used 50 operational plus 10 field-test items. The item types listed are the general SOL program formats rather than a chemistry-specific statement. Chemistry is not itself required: Virginia diploma rules let students earn a science verified credit from any course with a corresponding EOC SOL test, so Chemistry is one option among Biology and Earth Science.
Virginia Chemistry FAQ
Does Virginia have a state chemistry exam?
Yes. Virginia gives the Chemistry Standards of Learning (SOL) End-of-Course Test, a chemistry-specific exam.
What is on these practice tests?
Each test has 80 questions drawn from the full high-school chemistry course, measurement and significant figures, atomic structure and periodic trends, bonding and molecular shape, the mole and stoichiometry, reactions and solutions, thermochemistry, kinetics and equilibrium, gases, acids and bases, electrochemistry, and lab practice. Question types include multiple choice, select-all, numerical fill-in, ordered response and hot spot.
How long does a test take?
About 100 minutes if you use the timer. You can also take it untimed, which is the better choice the first time. You learn more from working a problem through than from running out of clock.
Are the 2 tests different from each other?
Yes. No question is shared between them, so a second test is a real second measurement rather than a memory check.
Do I need an account?
No. Every test, the flashcards and the quick review are free and open, with no login and nothing to install. They open in a window on this page, your answers stay put while it is open, and your score and explanations appear the moment you submit.
What reference materials are provided?
Periodic Table of Elements – shipped with secure paper/pencil materials and available on the TestNav toolbar for online testers
Chemistry in Other States
Explore chemistry standards, practice tests and study tools for every state.
Make This Your Virginia Chemistry Starting Point
Take a practice test, find the unit that pulled your score down, and study it with the flashcards and quick review. Then take the second test and see the difference.
