I think it's weird and mind altering... Does it get better as the year progresses?

Don't stress too much.
At first - because it is completely new, there will be some terminology which is very foreign and it might come across as quite daunting.. but soon enough your understanding will adapt and it will become much easier. In saying that, year 11 chemistry is very foundational and thus you will go through a number of new things and the "basics" of chem which can sometimes be difficult to "wrap your head around".
In terms of year 12 chem, with hardly any year 11 knowledge it's still quite easy to achieve high marks.. so don't worry too much right now as a prelim student.

More easy than alright.
I've done no study other than completing the homework that my teacher has set.

Not sure - I guess I could try. We use Conquering Chemistry, though the homework I've done so far hasn't been from that. What's the question?
