Notes & Summaries for Chemistry

This module introduces concepts and trends in the chemistry of the s-, p-, d- and f- block elements, and their compounds. This module builds on prior learning relating to electronic configuration and oxidation states, molecular structure prediction and bonding models, and provides a foundation for the study of more advanced chemical systems. (This module builds on knowledge from Structure and Bonding notes.)

In this module you will be introduced to fundamental ideas of how structures and concepts in chemistry are represented, i.e. the language with which they are described. This includes standard chemical terminology, notation and diagrams, and use of mathematical representations in chemistry.

These are detailed notes for the linear AQA A-Level Chemistry course in Organic Chemistry for the first year of the A-Level course. These notes are still applicable for all other exam boards with this topic because I used several sources to make them, including the official AQA textbook, and online notes that I found, as well as the CGP revision guide. NOTE: THESE NOTES DO NOT INCLUDE ALL OF THE ORGANIC CHEMISTRY YEAR 2 TOPICS. THE TOPICS NOT INCLUDED ARE AMINO ACIDS, PROTEINS AND DNA; ORGANIC ...

You will be able to: • Describe the quantisation of energy in atoms, handle mathematical representations of the Schrodinger equation and of the wavefunction to determine properties of a quantum system. • Draw atomic orbitals, describe them in terms of quantum numbers and describe them as radial distribution function plots to explain screening effects. • Describe and determine electron configurations, bonding and geometries in simple molecules using a variety of tools and theories • Pred...

A bundle of AS Level and Biology Summary Sheets. The notes that I used to achieve A*AAA at A-Level, with AA in Chemistry and Biology. Hope they help!

These are detailed notes for the linear AQA A-Level Chemistry course in Inorganic Chemistry for the second year of the A-Level course. These notes are still applicable for all other exam boards with this topic because I used several sources to make them, including the official AQA textbook, and online notes that I found, as well as the CGP revision guide.

In this module you will be taking a mechanistic approach to introductory organic chemistry and learning about the major types of reactivity at carbon centres. The module will build on previous modules such as ‘Language of Chemistry’ and incorporate kinetics and spectroscopy, where appropriate, to build your understanding of reactivity at both carbon sp3 and sp2 centres. By the end of the module you will be able to predict and rationalise the outcomes of reactions at sp3 and sp2 centres, incl...

Summary notes of the official OCR A Level Chemistry A OCR Student Book by Rob Ritchie and Dave Gent. Made by an A* student.

NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy(vibrational), Microwave spectroscopy (rotational), Electronic spectroscopy in detail. Additional notes on rotational-vibrational and vibrational-electronic spectroscopies are added.
