Overview
Identify the first twenty elements of the periodic table; Write the electronic configuration of atoms of the first 20 elements; Explain the concept. of atomic numbers; Arrange the elements on the periodic table based on their atomic numbers; Differentiate between various types of chemical bonding; Name compounds by their conventional and IUPAC names; Distinguish between solid, liquid and gaseous states of matter; Discuss the kinetic theory and its applications
What you'll learn
- Periodic table (first 20 elements only)
- Electronic configuration of atoms
- Types of bonds - a. Strong bonds e.g. electrovalent (ionic), covalent, coordinate covalent (Dative bonds); metallic bonds b. Weak bonds e.g. hydrogen bond, van-der waals forces
- Systems of naming compounds: - conventional - IUPAC * Any of these 2 naming systems is acceptable at this level
- States of matter: - Solid - Liquid - Gaseous state
- The Kinetic theory and its applications
