- Atomic structure, bonding and states of matter Subatomic particles; isotopes; electronic configuration with s, p, d orbitals (Cr and Cu exceptions); ionisation energies and their trends; evidence for shells from successive ionisation energies.
- Stoichiometry, energetics and electrochemistry Mole calculations, empirical and molecular formulae, titrations, percentage yield, atom economy, gas volumes.
- Equilibria and reaction kinetics Dynamic equilibrium; Le Chatelier's principle; Kc and Kp expressions and calculations; only temperature changes K.
- Inorganic chemistry Period 3 trends in atomic radius, ionisation energy, electronegativity, melting point and conductivity; reactions of elements with oxygen, chlorine and water; acid–base nature of oxides and chlorides.
- Organic chemistry: basics, hydrocarbons and halogen compounds Formulae (structural, displayed, skeletal), functional groups, nomenclature; isomerism (structural, cis–trans, optical); reaction types (addition, substitution, elimination, hydrolysis, condensation, oxidation, reduction) and mechanisms (homolytic and heterolytic fission; free radicals, electrophiles, nucleophiles).
