Google serratus anterior, then go on to re-test where the soreness is. That's usually it.
You're really just going to have to make due till you get acclimated.

I've found this to be very common and used to effect me aswell. It's hard for most people to feel that the serratus anterior and lats are seperate, and it's actually those muscles acheing.
Within a few weeks you should get used to it, if not, then consider moving Back day to thursday, Leg day on tuesday, and doing biceps on back day. It's not ideal, as you then have triceps by themselves.. but I'm pretty sure you'll adapt soon enough and having ache in that area will no longer be a problem.

Chest and shoulders together is never a good idea

Just google "muscle chart" or "muscle graph" or something like that, some are incredibly detailed, there are many, many muscles many people who train for decades will not even know exist!
