Topic 8 – Energetics I (Edexcel)

This course covers the heat energy changes that accompany chemical reactions: exothermic and endothermic reactions, enthalpy level diagrams and activation energy, standard conditions and the standard enthalpy changes of reaction, formation, combustion and neutralisation, measuring enthalpy changes by calorimetry, Hess’s law and enthalpy cycles, and bond enthalpies, aligned with Edexcel A Level Chemistry (9CH0) Topic […]

Topic 2A – Intermolecular Forces (Edexcel)

This course covers the forces that act between molecules and the physical properties they explain: London forces (instantaneous dipole-induced dipole), permanent dipole interactions and hydrogen bonding; the anomalous properties of water including the density of ice; trends in boiling temperature for alkanes, branched isomers, alcohols and the hydrogen halides; and the factors that decide the […]
