It???s ok to do a chest and biceps workout even if your back is still sore.
If a muscle is sore it has not fully recovered it can take up to 72 hours for a muscle to fully recover most don???t take this long but this is when your muscles get bigger.

So if your back is sore rest it but just workout any other muscle groups that don???t involve moving the back .

Personally, I have had the greatest gains by merely putting chest and back together consecutively, and leaving arms on the last day, being they are the smallest muscles on the body. I have increased my bicep/tricep ratio size by doing this alone.

I've worked out sore plenty of times. I always seem to progress nonetheless.

If your sore the muscle has not recovered
So your cutting down on your progress

in addition to what bob said,

its ok to workout when your muscle is sore. Just do not work the muscle that is sore. Doing otherwise will slow / stun your growth.

I still believe you should work chest/back, shoulders/hams-abs, quads/calves, arms
