Content
Electronic structures & periodic properties (atomic radius, ionization energy, electronegativity…) Types of chemical bonds between atoms (ionic, covalent, metallic) and between molecules (dispersion force, dipole-dipole, hydrogen bond) involving molecule polarity (dipole moment, VESPR model…) States of matter: gaseous state (concept of pressure including partial pressure & vapour pressure, ideal gas law, real gases, density, kinetic theory of gases, diffusion, effusion), condensed matter states (in particular crystallographic structures of solids). Aqueous solutions (solubility, different types of concentrations, colligative properties) Chemical equilibrium (advancement table for reversible reactions, equilibrium constant K & quotient of reaction Q, Le Châtelier’s principle, introduction to thermochemistry) Chemical Kinetics (rate of reaction, half-life, orders of reaction & rate laws, Arrhenius equation) Chemical kinetics Chemical equilibrium Application to electrochemistry
