States of matter
Matter exists in three states : Solid (s) , Liquid (l) ,and Gas(g)
Type of movement Vibrate in fixed postion Move randomly , flow Move randomly , freely ,Very quickly
Cannot move from its place Sliding over each other
Changes of state:
Describe the changes in the energy ,in the arrangement , and movement of the particles :
when a solid is heated to become a liquid
Particles gain kinetic energy , have irregular arrangement , and move randomly .
Boiling point is the temperature at which liquid turns to gas, which is unique for each pure substance
Some very fast particles at the surface of the liquid will have enough energy to break the forces of
attraction between the particles; they will escape to form gas.
Boiling Evaporation
Boiling can only happens when liquid reaches specific temp Evaporation happens over a range of temperatures.
(boiling point)
Volatile liquid: liquid with low boiling point, and so evaporate easily (more quickly) at room temperature.
Sublimation
Sublimation is when a solid changes directly to a gas without passing through liquid state
Iodine I2 (dark grey solid when heated sublimes turns to purple gas)

Data for Pure Water :
Melting point : 0 °C
Working out the physical state of a substance at a given temperature, using the melting point and boiling point
Liquid
Predicted state
Temperature < Melting point Solid
Temperature greater than melting point but less than boiling point
• Note : comparing negative temperatures values. For e.g : - 95°C > - 120°C
- 200 °C is higher than melting point (-218 °C ) , but less than boiling point ( -183 °C).so Oxygen is liquid at- 200 °C
High melting and Boiling points → strong forces of attraction between particles
5
Substance Melting point °C Boiling point °C State at 25 °C State at - 100°C
A ―259 °C ―253 °C
B 0 °C 100 °C
C 3700 °C sublimes
D ―116 °C 34.5 °C
E 801 °C 1413 °C
Diffusion
What is meant by Diffusion?
Diffusion is the random movement of particles
Diffusion occurs in Gases and Liquid only (solids cannot move from its place)
Diffusion is faster in Gases as there very weak forces of attraction between particles in gas, so gas particles can
move freely ,randomly ,and very quickly to fill available space.
6
Factors affecting the rate (speed) of diffusion :
1. Temperature :
as the tempertaure increases ,particles have more kinetic energy and so particles diffuse faster
2. Relative molecular mass Mr: As the mass of particles increases, slower diffusion
ligher gas particles diffuse more quickly and so move further distance than heavier particles.
Observation: White solid of Ammonium chloride NH4Cl (s) is formed where they meet and react.
Ammonia particles diffuse faster than hydrogen chloride ازاي عرفت ؟ و ليه ؟
Ammonia particles have moved further distance in the same amount of time.
NH3 has lower Mr and so diffuse faster than HCl. Ammonia is lighter than Hydrogen chloride
Mr of NH3 = 14+3 =17 Mr of HCl = 1+35.5= 36.5 Mr of NH3 < Mr of HCl
Safety precaution
1. Hydrochloric acid is corrosive (burns ,eat away skin ,mucus membrane and cloth )
so wear Goggles to protect eyes and Gloves to protect skin
Although gas particles move at a speed of hundreds meters per second at room
temperature , yet it took 5 minutes for the white ring to form . Give two reasons :
1. Gas particles collide with air particles
7
Experiment 2: Diffusion in gases e.g Diffusion of Bromine
Bromine gas is a reddish brown gas and toxic (precaution: fume cupboard)
2. Coloured vapour diffuses to fill out the jar as gas particles move freely
Place a Crystal (solid) of Potassium Manganate KMnO4 in a beaker of water . Two process occur
1. The crystal dissolves (Dissolving) : Observation : the crystal get smaller or disappear

Methods of separation
Solid + liquid mixtures:
a) Solid insoluble in liquid
Filter funnel
Examples of solvents : • Water : substance dissolves in water forming aqueous solution ( aq)
Beaker

What is meant by Saturated solution ? جاب اخره, مش هاينفع يدوب اي حاجه تانى
Is the solution that contains maximium amount of solute that dissolves in a given volume of solvent
at particular tempertaure.
How to obtain soluble solid (solute) from solution ? )solvent هضحي بحد فيهم (هطير ال
Solution is heated ,water evaporates completely and leaves the solid behind .
Example : Sodium chloride solution NaCl (aq) is heated ,water is evaporated and the salt appear in the
evaporating dish
Safety precaution :
11
How to obtain soluble solid (solute) from solution ?
1. Heat the solution till crystalisation point or till the solution becomes saturated
The solution is heated to evaporate part of the water. (DO NOT REMOVE ALL THE WATER) .
4. Crystals are dried between filter papers or left in warm place or oven
How to know when the solution reached crystalisation point ? glass rod test
• Dip glass rod in the hot solution and leave in cold air
• If crystals starts to form quickly on tip of glass rod ,then the whole solution ready for crystalisation .
Water vapour enters Condenser ,Water vapour H2O (g) is cooled and condeneses to liquid water H2O (l)
Water is collected in the beaker . Solid sodium chloride(salt) remains in the flask
Water enters near the bottom of the Liebig Condenser and leaves near the top :Why?
To keep the condenser (jacket) full of water for better cooling
Imporatant use of simple distillation : Pure water can be obtained from sea water
12
Fractional distillation:
Used to separate Liquid mixtures
3. At fractionating column : ethanol vapour will continue rising up while any water vapour condenses and drop
back to the flask
4. Ethanol vapour enters the condenser ,where it is cooled and liquid ethanol is collected in the beaker
5. Once the thermometer reading rises above 78°C ,this indicates all ethanol has been separated
(At fractional distillation, the liquid with lower boiling point is collected first)

Chromatography
Before
Lid
Chromatography paper
Spot of ink
After
Solvent front
Dye C
Dye B
Dye A
The solvent gradually rises up the paper, until reaching near the top of paper forming the solvent front.
The solvent gradually moves up the paper, the dyes are carried with it and begin to separate.
Conclusion: 3 spots above baseline appear on chromatogram. This indicates that the ink is composed of 3 dyes
The dyes separate at different heights
Dyes (colours ) separate : because they have different solubilities in the solvent.
The more soluble a substance in a solvent, the further the distance it travels on the paper
15
Dye C is the most soluble dye as it moves the furthest distance from the baseline
Dye A is the least soluble dye ,as it moves the shortest distance from baseline
If ink was used ,it would dissolve and so interferes with the results.
If a substance did not move up (stayed at the baseline) ,then it is insoluble in the used solvent
Steps of chromatography
1. Draw a pencil line near the bottom of the chromatography paper (baseline)
5. the paper is removed from the solvent when the solvent reachs near the top of the paper
Calculating Rf value :
𝐷𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑣𝑒𝑑 𝑏𝑦 𝑑𝑦𝑒 Distance from Baseline to the spot
Rf = 𝐷𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑣𝑒𝑑 𝑏𝑦 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑡
= Distance from Baseline to solvent front

12.28 g solid : 20 g water cross multiplication
61.4 g solid : 100 g water
The maximum mass of solid Copper II sulfate that would dissolve in 50 g of water at
40°C
What will occur if 100 g of saturated solution of copper II sulfate is cooled from 80°C
to 30°C ?
Solubility at 80°C = 58 gram in 100 gram of water
Cool from 80°C to 30°C = 58 ―23 = 35 gram of copper II sulfate crystals will form
20
Which solid A,B ,C has greatest solubility in g per 100 g of water at 40 °C?
State the temperature at which solid A and solid C have same solubility ?
21
Atomic structure (inside the atom)
Atoms are made of Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons (sub atomic particles)
The Protons and Neutrons are found in the center of the atom which is called the Nucleus.
The Electrons are found in Electron Shells at a distance from the nucleus (around the nucleus)
A Proton and a Neutron have the same mass. Electrons have negligible mass (almost zero).
Mass number: total number of Protons and Neutrons in the nucleus of the atom.
So the Number of Electrons for an atom is known from the Atomic Number
Each element has a Certain Symbol and found in a square in Periodic table
Na is Chemical Symbol for Sodium Element. Each element has two numbers.
Bigger number is the Mass number (Relative atomic mass Ar). Smaller number is the Atomic number.
Number of Electrons = 11
22
The arrangement of Electrons in the Electron Shells (Electronic configuration )
1St shell holds up to maximum 2 Electrons

An Elements is identified by its Atomic number (number of Protons). Atomic number is fixed
An element is composed of atoms with same atomic number.
For example, if an atom has 8 protons, it must be Oxygen.
Mass number may vary. An element may have more than one mass number.
23
Isotopes . what is meant by isotopes ?
Atoms of the same element having same atomic number but different mass number.

All hydrogen isotopes contain one proton (and one electron), but they can contain different numbers of neutrons.
Isotopes have same chemical properties (react in a similar way ,do same reactions),
because isotopes have same electronic configuration
Isotopes have slightly different physical properties such as density
24
Relative atomic mass Ar of an element :
It is the average of mass numbers of isotopes, measured on a scale where an atom of Carbon-12
has mass of 12 units
Relative atomic mass Ar takes in consideration the percentage % abundance of each isotope.
Or ratio 3 : 1
Ar of Chlorine = 35 x 75 + 37 x 25 Or 35 x 3 + 37 x 1 = 35.5

Explain why the relative atomic mass (Ar) of some elements is not whole number?
Because some elements have more than one isotope .

Introduction to Periodic table
Elements are identified by their atomic number.
Periodic table is divided into: • Vertical columns are called Groups • Horizontal rows are called Periods.
Elements with similar chemical properties are found in same group. • There are 8 vertical Groups.
Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties as they have same number of electrons in outer
shell
Group zero, or called Noble gases (Inert = do not react) (do not form ions or compounds)
All Noble gases have complete outer shell of electrons
Noble gases are Unreactive as do not easily gain or lose or share electrons
Noble gases have 8 electrons in outer shell except Helium
Helium 2 He→2e→②
Neon 10 Ne→10e→2, ⑧
Argon 18 Ar→18e→2, 8, ⑧
27
Periods (rows) of Periodic table
There are 7 horizontal Periods
Mention an element:
Located at group 4 and Period 4 ………………… ….
Metals are Malleable (can be shaped upon using force)Metals are Ductile (rulled into wires)
28

5 -3 ( gain of 3 electrons) 3
6 -2 ( gain of 2 electrons) 2
7 -1 (gain of 1 electron) 1
0 Do not gain or lose electrons 0
Hydrogen (H) 1
Transition metals Have more than one valency
Valency has to be stated between brackets
When metals form ions, metals lose electrons forming positive ions.
The ion will have the name of metal e.g. Sodium ion Na+, Calcium ion Ca2+, and Aluminum ion Al3+
Nonmetals have larger number of electrons in outer shell 4e, 5e, 6e, or 7e
When non metals form ions, gain electrons forming negative ions
The name of the negative ion ends with ide E.g. Chloride ion Cl- , Oxide ion O2- , Nitride ion N3-

What is meant by “ ionic bond “ ?
Strong Electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions
Metal
+ → Ionic compound Giant ionic structure
Ionic bond
Non Metal
A giant ionic structure contains huge number of positive and negative ions.
Alternating = +-+-+-
This diagram can be drawn to shown the arrangement of ions in any ionic compound
Strong electrostatic forces of attraction between positive and negative ions = Strong ionic bonds
Which requires large amount of heat energy to overcome these forces of attraction between ions
2. Conduction of electricity
For a substance to conduct electricity, it must have Free moving ions or free moving electrons (delocalised electrons)
But when ionic compounds are Molten (heated till melting point) or in aqueous solution (dissolved in water),
the ions can move freely
Ionic compounds conduct electricity only when molten or aqueous solution (at liquid state ) as the ions can move
33
Covalent bond
Co = Company ( Share ) Valent = valency sharing according to valency
Covalent bonding involves Sharing of electrons( no gain or loss of electrons no ion formation ) Equal sharing
When non metals are joined by covalent bond, a Molecule is formed. Molecule = presence of covalent bond
Definition of Molecule: Group of atoms (two or more atoms) joined by covalent bond

What is meant by “ Covalent bond “ or in other words describe Covalent bonding ?
Electrostatic forces of attraction between shared pair of electrons and nuclei of both atoms
involved in the bonding .
How does the covalent bond hold hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms together in water molecule H2O?
There are strong electrostatic forces of attraction between shared pair of electrons and nuclei of
hydrogen and oxygen atoms
Molecule --------------Molecule------------------Molecule
Covalent bond
Properties of Covalent compounds (non metal + non metal) = Simple molecular structures
Examples of covalent compounds : Water H2O ,Carbon dioxide CO2 , Ammonia NH3,and Ethanol C2H5OH
Because there are No delocalised electrons(all the electrons are tightly held in covalent bonds)
Covalent compounds do not contain ions
Covalent compounds only composed of molecules which are neutral (uncharged)
37
Comparison between Ionic compound and covalent compound

Due to Strong electrostatic forces of attraction between Due to weak intermolecular forces of attraction
oppositely charged ions
Poor conductor of electricity at Solid state Poor conductor at Solid and Liquid state
Ions cannot move No ions . composed of Molecules are neutral (not charged)
No delocalised electrons
Good conductor at liquid state
Ions can move freely(ions are mobile)
1. Diamond
Structure of Diamond:
Each Carbon atom is covalently bonded to four other carbon atoms in a tetrahedral shape arrangement
Properties of Diamond :
1. Diamond is very hard and has very high melting point (or Sublimation point) why?
refer to bonding and structure
Diamond has giant covalent structure
Each carbon is covalently bonded to 4 other carbon atoms in a tetrahedral shape arrangement
All the electrons in the outer shells of carbon atoms are tightly held in covalent bonds.
Uses of Diamond:
2. Graphite
Graphite is another form of Carbon element. Graphite has different giant covalent structure.
Structure of Graphite
Properties of Graphite:
2. Graphite is a Soft
because the layers of carbon atoms can slide over each other due to weak forces of attraction
between the layers.
39
Uses of Graphite:
1. Graphite is used as Lubricant to reduce friction as the layers of carbon atoms can slide over each other due to
weak forces of attraction between layers.
2. Graphite is used in making Pencils leave marks on papers
as the layers of carbon atoms can slide over each other due to weak forces of attraction between layers.
3. Graphite is used to make electrodes in electrolysis as it is good conductor of electricity due to the presence
of delocalised electrons
Compare between diamond and graphite, referring to the structure and bonding of each
substance, explain why diamond is used in cutting tools and graphite is used in making pencils.

40
C60 Fullerene Sublimes at lower temperature, compared to diamond and graphite Why??
In melting , Diamond or graphite Covalent bonds are broken (Covalent bonds are Strong )
Heat energy required to break covalent bonds in diamond or graphite is greater than intermolecular forces in C60
Each Silicon atom is bonded to 4 Oxygen atoms Each Oxygen is bonded to 2 Silicon atoms
41
②Metallic structure and Metallic bonding
Describe the Structure of Metals:
Positive ion
1. Most metals have high melting point and are Hard . Why ??
Due to strong electrostatic forces of attraction between positive ions and delocalised electrons
②Alloys
What is meant by an Alloy ?
Most of the metals are used in the form of Alloys not pure metals
(as Alloy are harder than pure metal and more resistant to corrosion )
Structure of an alloy
42
Why are alloys harder and less malleable than pure metals?
In pure metal ,the metal ions are the same size ,(regular arrangement)
In an alloy, the metal ions have different sizes , this disrupts the arrangement of the ions
So it will be more difficult for the layers of ions to slide over each other.
Types of bonding:
1. Ionic bond (between metal and non metal)
2. Covalent bond (between non metal and non metal)
3. Metallic bond found in metals only
4. Weak intermolecular forces of attraction between molecules (simple molecular structure)
↑ Melting point = strong forces of attraction ↓ Melting point = weak forces of attraction
Metal + Non metal → ionic compound 2. High melting and boiling point
Examples : Sodium chloride NaCl , Lithium fluoride LiF ,and Calcium Oxide CaO
Strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions = Strong ionic bond
Composed of molecules
Examples: (Nitrogen N2, Hydrogen H2, Chlorine Cl2, Bromine Br2, Iodine I2, CO2, H2O, NH3, CH4, , Ethanol C2H5OH
PCl3 , SCl2 and C60 Fullerene → Non metals in the formula + low M.P and B.P
Weak intermolecular forces of attraction In melting and boiling, theses weak forces of attraction are broken
NO covalent bonds are broken
3. Insoluble
Except graphite
Carbon dioxide CO2 and Silicon dioxide SiO2 Both are covalent structures
CO2 has weak intermolecular forces of attraction, which require little amount of heat energy to overcome.
SiO2 has giant covalent structure, covalent bonds are strong bonds ,many covalent bonds must be broken ,
large amount of heat energy is required to break the covalent bonds
Both CO2 and SiO2 do not conduct electricity due to absence of delocalised electrons
3. Malleable

Work across the equation from left to right ,checking one element after one another
Count the total number of atoms of each element in the reactants and products
If you have a group of atoms (like sulfate SO4), which is unchanged from one side of the equation to the other.
Count it as a whole group rather than counting individual sulfurs and oxygens. It saves time .

Group I elements (Alkali metals)
Electronic configuration
All elements in group one have one electron in outer shell and so they have similar chemial properties
4K + O2 2K2O
Rubidium ( Rb) + Oxygen → Rubidium oxide
4Rb + O2 2Rb2O
2. Reaction with cold water H2O (l) :
Lithium + water :
Lithium floats on the surface of water as lithium has lower denisty than water.
50
Sodium + water :
Sodium more reactive than lithium ,so it reacts more vigorous than lithium
Observations :
1. Sodium floats and moves. 2.Bubbles. 3. Sodium get smaller /disappear
4. Sodium melts and forms a ball. Sodium melts because its melting point is low and a lot of heat is produced.
Potassium + water :
Observations :
1. Potassium floats and moves. 2. Bubbles 3. Potassium get smaller or disappear 4. Melts and form a ball.
5. White trail of Potassium hydroxide 6. Potassium Catchs fire (lilac flame produced )
Group I metals are called Alkali metals because when they react with water they produce metal hydroxide
solution , which is alkaline. (Metal hydroxide = alkali solution ,as contains hydroxide ionOH- ) PH = 13
51
Group I metals are highly reactive metals, and so they are stored under oil (Parafin or Kerosine) to prevent
contact with air and water.
Safety precaution : care must be taken to touch these metals with bare fingers.
Wear gloves : as your skin may be wet ,or enough sweat on your skin will react with these metals to produce
metal hydroxides (corrosive = burns the skin) and heat is produced.
All compounds (salts) of group I are soluble in water forming colourless solutions
When group I salts exist in solid state they are white solids
الشدة بتكون اضعف و بيكون سهل اجري, كل لما ابعد, عايز اجرى و في حبل ماسكني
K > Na > Li Why is Potassium more reactive than Sodium and Lithium ?
Group one metals react by losing one electron forming ion with charge +1
Easier to lose an electron = more reactive
there is attraction force between nuclues (+) AND electron (-) in outer shell
Li
3Li → → 2,①
11Na → N → 2 ,8 ,①
a
19K → K → 2,8,8,①
Potassium has weaker attraction between the nucleus and the electron in outer shell
as a result ,the electron in outer shell can be more easily lost in Potassium.

Group VII exist as diatomic molecule e.g F2 , Cl2 , Br2 , I2 , and At2 (simple molecular strctrue )
1. Gradual change in the state of matter at room tempertaure Gas then liquid then Solid
3. Colour darkens : Halogen with Palest colur ( ) فاتح: Flourine Halogen with Darkest colour : Astatine
Sodium + Fluorine →
53
Calcium + Bromine →
2. Halogens + Hydrogen :
Halogens react with Hydrogen ,they share electrons(covalent bonding ) forming Hydrogen halides
H2 (g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl (g) Hydrogen chloride HCl (g) gas is a colourless gas.
H2 + Br2 → 2HBr
3. Displacement reaction involing halogens :
The higher reactive halogen will displace the lower reactive halogen F
Cl
Br
( Colourless ) ( Orange)
Chlorine is more reactive than bromine ( higher up in the group) , so chlorine displaces bromine
54
Br2 (l) + 2NaI (aq) 2NaBr(aq) + I2(aq)
Bromine Sodium iodide Sodium bromide Iodine
Colourless brown
I2 + NaBr No reaction.
Iodine is less reactive than bromine ,so iodine cannot displace bromine
A halogen cannot displace another more reactive halogen. → Br2 + NaCl → No reaction
9 F→ 2,⑦
17Cl→2, 8, ⑦
35Br→2, 8, 18, ⑦
Why bromine is less reactive than chlorine and fluorine in terms of electronic configuration ?
Group seven elements react through gaining an electron forming ion with charge -1
Bromine atom has more electron shells than Chlorine and Fluorine
Bromine has weaker attraction between the nucleus and outer shell electrons than Cl and F
So as a result Bromine has less tendency to gain an electron and so less reactive than Cl and F
55
As you go down across group
Group 1 : it will be easier to lose an electron Group 7 : it will be more difficult to gain an electron
Group one , Group two , Aluminium , Zinc , and ammonium compounds : are White solids (s)
e.g Calcium oxide CaO (s) , Magnesium oxide MgO: white solid
e.g Zinc sulfate solution ZnSO4 (aq) , Magnesium sulfate solution MgSO4 (aq) : Coloruless solution

Acids and Bases
What is an Acid?
Three common Acids: Hydrochloric acid HCl (aq), Nitric acid HNO3(aq), and Sulfuric acid H2SO4 (aq)
What is a Base?
PH scale: Scale from 0 to 14, used to show if the solution is acidic, or basic, or neutral
PH Example
0-3 Strong acidic Hydrochloric acid HCl
4-6 Weak acidic Carbonic acid H2CO3
7 Neutral Sodium chloride NaCl , Water
8-10 Weak alkaline Ammonia NH3
11-14 Strong alkaline Sodium hydroxide NaOH
Hydrogen chloride gas HCl (g) dissolved in water→ Hydrochloric acid HCl (aq)
Examples of indicators
Acid turns blue litmus paper red Alkali turns red litmus paper blue
and universal indicator measures the PH, so it shows if the solution is strong or weak acidic.
Strong acids and strong alkalis are corrosive (burn, irritant, can eat away skin, and cloth), Wear goggles to
protect eye. Wear gloves and lab coat ( protective cloth ). Also in heating, gentle and careful heating
61
Acid reactions:
1. Acid + Metal → Salt + Hydrogen
62
3. Metal hydroxide + Acid → Salt + Water
Neutralisation reaction
Examples : Examples :
Sodium oxide Na2O Carbon dioxide CO2
Calcium oxide CaO Sulfur dioxide SO2
Copper II oxide CuO Silicon dioxide SiO2
Metal oxide + Water → Metal hydroxide Non metal oxide + Water → Acidic solution
MgO (s) + H2O (l) → Mg(OH )2(aq) alkaline solution PH > 7 turns universal indicator blue
Carbon dioxide gas CO2 (g) is an acidic oxide when reacts with water to form acidic solution
CO2(g) + H2O (l) → H2CO3 (aq) acidic solution PH < 7 turns universal indicator red
Preparation of Salts
Salt is an ionic compound composed of Positive ion and Negative ion
The positive ion (+) is either metal ion or ammonium ion NH4+
Solubility of salts
All Chlorides are soluble except( lead (II) chloride PbCl2 (s) , Silver chloride AgCl (s) )

All Carbonates are insoluble except (Sodium carbonate , Potassium carbonate , Ammonium carbonate )
All metal oxides are insoluble except ( Sodium oxide and Potassium oxide )
all metal hydroxides are insoluble except ( Sodium hydroxide NaOH (aq) and potassium hydroxide KOH (aq) )
64
Preparation of Salts: (Three methods of preparation)
Soluble salts apart from Na, K ,NH4 salts Na, K, NH4 salts
Magnesium sulfate is a soluble salt., we can directly react solid Magnesium Mg(s) with an acid to make the salt.
You can use Magnesium oxide MgO (s), or Magnesium hydroxide Mg(OH)2 (s) ,or Magnesium carbonate MgCO3(s)
Sulfate so we use Sulfuric acid The following reaction below occurs between Magnesium and Sulfuric acid:
Mg(s) + H2SO4 (aq) → MgSO4 (aq) + H2 (g)
Steps :
1. In a beaker put Sulfuric acid • Heat the acid to speed up the reaction
Add solid Magnesium to the acid using a Spatula (one spatula at a time) and Stir by glass rod after each addition.
What will you observe when Magnesium is added to dilute sulfuric acid?
2. Solid Magnesium is added until it is in excess Excess : means more than enough to react كبشه او زيادة
• Why excess of solid Magnesium was added to the acid?
How will you know that all the acid has been used up? Or When can you decide that excess solid is added ?
Mg (s)
Now you have Magnesium sulfate aqueous solution MgSO4 (aq) + Excess of solid Magnesium Mg(s)
65
3 Excess of solid Magnesium is removed by filtration
Excess magnesium =residue Magnesium sulfate solution = filtrate
How to obtain pure dry Magnesium sulfate crystals from Magnesium sulfate solution?
4 Heat magnesium sulfate solution(filtrate) till crystallisation point or till solution becomes saturated
to evaprate part of water DO NOT heat till till dryness (do not remove all the water)
5 Leave the the solution to cool
Notes:
Stirring is essential for mixing reacting substances and allows the solid to dissolve more quickly
Why was the acid heated? To speed up the reaction (to increase the rate of reaction)
Because the reaction between metal carbonate with acid is rapid at room temperature
(no need to warm the acid as the reaction is rapid with cold acid)
Because the solid is added in excess or in other words all the acid is used up
How could you know if excess of solid or excess of acid is present in solution?
If excess of solid: remains at the bottom of beaker as solid (Solid stops dissolving)
If excess of acid: measure PH of the solution, blue litmus paper turns red
Heat the filtrate till crystallisation point (till crystals starts to form)
66
How will you know the crystallisation point is reached ?
To see when crystals form and indicates crystallisation point (when solution is saturated) and to know when to
stop heating
Solubility decreases with temperature ,crystals are less soluble in cold water than hot water
Water of crystallisation
When many salts form their crystals , some water molecules from the solution are part of the salt crystal
structure this called water of crystallisation.
Direct strong heating (evaporate all the water ) produces anhydrous solid (powder)
Key steps for preparation of soluble salt using a Solid and Acid
Heat the acid
Note : if the solid is Metal Carbonate + Acid no need to heat the acid
The solid (Metal or Metal oxide or Metal hydroxide or Metal carbonate ) is added until it is
in excess and stir
Filtration to remove excess solid
Heat the filtrate till crystallisation point
Leave to cool
Filtration to obtain crystals
Crystals are dried using filter paper.
67
Preparation of pure dry sample of Hydrated Copper II sulfate crystals from solid Copper II oxide CuO (s) and
Sulfuric acid H2SO4 (aq)
You get could use solid Copper II Carbonate CuCO3(s) or solid Copper II Hydroxide Cu(OH)2 (S) + Sulfuric acid
Copper Cu (s) could not be used as copper is less reactive than hydrogen ,so does not react with sulfuric acid
White anhydrous copper sulfate powder Blue hydrated copper sulfate crystal
How to prepare hydrated Zinc chloride crystals from solid zinc carbonate ZnCO3 (s) added to an acid
Write the formula of the acid :
68
Calcium carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid but does not react with sulfuric acid
In reality, the calcium carbonate reacts normally with hydrochloric acid, fizzing of carbon dioxide gas occurs.
When calcium carbonate reacts with the sulfuric acid, insoluble calcium sulfate forms
Which forms a layer or coating on calcium carbonate, which prevents the acid from getting to
the calcium carbonate and reacting with it (stopping the reaction )
69
②Titration
Making Sodium, Potassium, and Ammonium salts
The need for a different method why?
The problem here is that all sodium, potassium, ammonium compounds are Soluble in water.
The solid you added to the acid would react with the acid and any excess of the solid will dissolve in water so
nothing will be filtered
1. Measure 25 cm3of Sodium hydroxide NaOH (aq) using pipette and add to a conical flask.
(known measured volume of alkali in a flask)
2. Few drops of indicator are added to the flask. Indicator used could be Phenolphthalein or Methyl orange
3. Fill burette with Hydrochloric acid HCl (aq). Add the acid from the burette slowly and swirl(shake) the flask
carefully to help the acid and alkali mix
70
4. The acid is added till indicator changes colour
Phenolphthalein turns from Pink to Colourless. = end point = neutralisation =All the alkali has been used up.
Heat the solution from the flask to evaporate part of water (till crystallisation point) .
Leave the solution to cool and filter the crystals. Crystals are dried by filter paper or left in warm place .
Notes :
Universal indicator shows gradual colour change .No sharp or clear colour change at the end point
After addition of each drop of acid from burette to the flask swirling Why?
So as not to add more acid than is needed (so as not to overshoot the end point )علشان متعديش
71
A white tile is put under the flask To see the colour change more easily
1. to increase reliability of the results (to increase accuracy ) to identify anomalous results
Measure alkali using a pipette into a conical flask and place flask on a white tile.
Add a few drops of indicator/suitable named indicator, e.g. methyl orange.
Fill the burette with acid and read volume of acid in the burette.
Add acid from the burette to the flask slowly, swirling the flask until indicator just changes colour.
Read the volume of acid in the burette at the end of titration.
Repeat experiment until you get concordant results.
Mix the same volume of alkali with the volume of acid determined from the titration but without indicator
Pour neutralised solution into an evaporating dish then heat solution to evaporate part of water and
then the solution to cool . Filter off the crystals and Dry crystals using filter paper.

Test for gases
Hydrogen gas H2 : • Hydrogen is colourless, and has low density (less dense than air )
Carbon dioxide gas CO2 : • Carbon dioxide gas is Denser than air and does not support combustion
Test for Carbon dioxide gas : pass through lime water Ca(OH)2 (aq)
Change in appearance of lime water : lime water turns from Colourless to milky
CO2 reacts with Ca(OH)2 to form Calcium Carbonate CaCO3(s) (White ppt) and water
Reaction between CO2 and Ca(OH)2 is Neutralisation reaction (as CO2 is an acidic oxide and Ca(OH)2 is a base)
Safety preacution :
Halogens (Chlorine ,Bromine ,and Iodine) and Ammonia are toxic gases : use fume cupboard

Test for ions
A salt is an ionic compound composed of Positive ion (Cation) and Negative ion(Anion)
The positive ion is either Metal ion or Ammonium ion NH4+
1. Flame test :
Some positive metal ions such as (Group one) are tested by changing the colour of the flame.
Steps of flame test: How is flame test done? Done on solid salt or solution
The wire is approached near to the non luminous flame (blue or roaring )and observe colour of the flame
Luminous flame (is already coloured) mask the colour change of the flame
76
2. Precipitation reaction
To test for the rest of positive metal ions
If you add Sodium hydroxide solution NaOH (aq) or ammonia solution (introducing OH-) to a solution containing
metal ion, a Precipitate of metal hydroxide is formed.

Halides Test :add dilute nitric acid and Silver nitrate solution AgNO3
Precipitation reaction
Silver nitrate is acidified using Nitric acid ,why hydrochloric acid cannot be used
Because hydrochloric acid HCl already has chloride ions .

②Electrolysis
What is meant by Electrolysis ?
Hints on Electrolysis :
― +
1. Power source ( Battery ) source of electricity
2. Electric wires
Electric wires
Copper is excellent conductor of electricity, ductile and has high melting point
Electrolyte
Two electrodes
Electrodes are made of substances which must have the following properties:
The electricity is passed into an out of the electrolyte via two electrodes.
Covalent compounds have no delocalised electrons (all the electrons are tightly held in covalent bonding )
79
1. Electrolysis of molten electrolyte Example: Electrolysis of molten lead (II) bromide PbBr2 (l)
Bulb -+
Heating
Nothing occurs till Lead (II) Bromide melts, where ions are free to move.
Solid ionic compounds do not conduct electricity as ions cannot move.
The ions present are Pb2+ and Br- . The ions move to the electrode of opposite charge.
What occurs at (-) cathode and anode (+)? (ion is discharged = ion changes to neutral atom)
Products: Lead (Pb) at the negative electrode and Bromine (Br2) at the positive electrode
80
Observations
1. Bulb lights up: showing electrons are flowing in the external circuit
from anode to cathode.
If you stop heating : the bulb goes out as ions stop moving .
No gain or lose of electrons at electrodes
Negative ions move to anode called Anions Positive ions move to the cathode called Cations
Molten ionic compound → Metal at Cathode + Non metal at Anode
𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐬
Oxidation at the Anode and Reduction at the Cathode Both products are elements

81
Equal volumes of two gases should be collected Why ?
For every 2 electrons that flow around the cirrcuit , you get 1 mole (or molecule) of chlorine
The volume of chorine is less than expected why ? as some chlorine is dissolved in water

List of elements (mainly metals) in order of decreasing reactivity the more reactive element (higher up in the
series) can displace lower reactive element from its compound.
Reaction between Magnesium (Mg) and Copper (II) Sulfate (CuSO4) solution:
so Magnesium displaces Copper. Copper has been pushed out of its compound by the more reactive magnesium.
Observations:
1 Colour of solution changes from blue to colourless
84
Reaction between Magnesium (Mg) and Zinc oxide (ZnO):
Heating Magnesium with zinc oxide gives magnesium oxide and zinc.
Magnesium is more reactive than zinc ,so magnesium displaces zinc from its oxide
Reaction between Hydrogen H2 (g) and heated solid Copper II Oxide CuO (s)
Hydrogen is more reactive than Copper ,so hydrogen displaces Copper from its oxide .
Safety precaution :
Wait for a short period of time before heating solid copper II oxide

The following reaction occurs when Chromium III oxide Cr2O3 heated with Aluminum Al
Cr2O3 (s) + 2Al (s) 2Cr (s) + Al2O3 (s)
Which metal Aluminum or Chromium is more reactive ? and why ?
85
Titanium > Tin
Calcium is most reactive ,titanium is the second most reactive ,tin is the least reactive
86
Metals can be arranged in a reactivity series based on their reactions with
1. Water
Copper, silver, and gold do not react with water or acid (less reactive than hydrogen)
Group I metals are too reactive metals : reacts explosively and vigorously with acids and water (dangerous)
② Extraction of Metals
Most of metals are found in the earth combined with other elements not free , exist in compound form
Metal ore: naturally existing rock from which pure metal is extracted.
Unreactive metals such as gold , silver are found in their ores as elements
To obtain the metal from metal oxide ,you have to remove the oxygen. Removal of oxygen is called Reduction.
87
Metals above Carbon in reactivity series :
Cannot be extracted from their ores through heating with Carbon
C +Al2O3 No reaction
Aluminum is more reactive than Carbon ,so carbon cannot displace aluminum from its oxide
Aluminum is extracted from its ore ,through electrolysis of molten electrolyte
Lot of electricity is required for this process of extraction, this is major expense
Aluminum oxide is an ionic compound. When it is melted the ions are free to move. Ions are : Al3+ and O2-
Negative electrode half ionic equation : Al3+is positive ion and so moves to negative electrode(cathode)
Positive electrode half ionic equation: O2- is negative ion and so moves to positive electrode (anode),
C + O2 → CO2
Products at the positive electrode (anode) are Oxygen gas and Carbon dioxide gas
88
Properties of Aluminum metal:
Aluminum has low density • Aluminum resists corrosion , Aluminum is non toxic ,it does not react with food
②Uses of Aluminum:
1. Aluminum is used for areoplanes, as it has low density and strong
3. Aluminum is used for cooking utensils (pans) as it resists corrosion ,good conductor of heat and has low
density
as it is non toxic , (does not react with food or drinks) ,resists corrosion
low density
malleable
②Uses of Copper:
1. Copper is used for making electric wires
as it is good conductor of electricity, ductile, and has high melting point.
89
②Extraction of iron : Iron ore is Iron (III) oxideFe2O3
Iron is extracted from its ore through heating with Carbon Why?
Iron is less reactive than Carbon ,so Carbon an displace iron from its oxide
3C + 2Fe2O3(s) 3CO2(g) + 4Fe(l)
So Iron III oxide could be reduced to iron by heating with Carbon

Reactions Comments
Carbon dioxide (from burning of Coke) reacts with Carbon to give Carbon monoxide
CO2 (g) + C(s) 2CO (g)
It is a Redox reaction
• Limestone breaks down by heat form Calcium oxide and Carbon dioxide
It is an Endothermic reaction
CaCO3 (s) CaO(s) + CO2(g) Thermal decomposition
5. Calcium oxide reacts with Silicon dioxide acidic oxide( non metal oxide)
Calcium oxide + Silicon IV oxide → Calcium silicate
CaO + SiO2 CaSiO3
Neutralisation reaction
Basic oxide Acidic oxide Calcium Silicate Salt Calcium silicate (slag) is a Salt
Calcium silicate forms slag, which floats on the surface of molten iron.
Slag has lower density than molten iron
90
Another method for extraction of Iron from ore : Electrolysis (expensive)
Rusting of iron
Iron rusts in presence of Water and Oxygen (both have to be present)
91
How to protect iron from rusting?
To prevent iron rusting, you have to prevent oxygen (from air) and water from reaching the metal surface.
1. Painting
3. Plastic coating which prevent air and water from reaching iron
But once the barrier (coat) is scratched or damaged, iron will rust as oxygen and water get in contact with iron
5. Sacrificial protection: using a metal which is more reactive than iron such as Zinc or Magnesium ,
the more reactive metal corrodes instead of iron
Zinc acts as a barrier preventing oxygen and water from reaching iron. Advantage of this process:
If the coating of zinc is damaged or scratched, the exposed iron is still protected and does not rust. Why?
92
Air
Air is a mixture of different gases
Carbon dioxide CO2 is found in air and represents 0.04 % of air composition
Air has no chemical formula as Air is a mixture of gases (not a single substance)
100 Cm3 of air is pushed out of this syringe into this Gas syringe
Copper turns black, due to formation of Copper II oxide (which is black solid)
93
% Oxygen in air can be determined by burning Phosphorus in air and measuring the volume change
11.5
% of Oxygen in air = x 100 = 23.7 %
48.5
As the phosphorus burns it uses up the oxygen inside the apparatus and as a result the water level rises
By making careful measurements of water levels before and after the experiment you can determine the percentage of oxygen in the air
94
Volume of oxygen = 100 ―25 = 75 cm3
Total volume of air in the apparatus at the start = 265 + 100 = 365
75
% of Oxygen in air = x 100 = 20.5
365
Sulfur dioxide gas SO2 (g) and Nitrogen oxides gases NO (g), and NO2 (g) cause acid rain.
Acid rain is formed when Sulfur dioxide gas reacts with water to produce Sulfuric acid (acidic solution)
SO2 + H2O H2SO3 react with Oxygen in air → H2SO4 sulfuric acid
Nitrogen N2 and Oxygen O2 from air react at high temperature in car engine forming Nitrogen oxides
Acid rain is formed when Nitrogen oxides react with water to produce Nitric acid
Kill trees • Kill fish in lakes • Dissolves Limestone (CaCO3) (reacts with calcium carbonate)
Increase in level of Carbon dioxide gas causes environmental problem which is global warming
Burn = + O2

Burning reaction of Hydrogen in air
Observations:
Magnesium oxide MgO ,when dissolved in water form Magnesium hydroxide solution Mg(OH)2 (alkaline PH > 7 )
S + O2 → SO2

Energy
Reactions are classified into two different types according to energy change
Exothermic reaction releases heat (or thermal)energy Endothermic reaction absorbs heat energy
②Energy diagrams

Activation energy Ea:Is the minimum amount of energy required for a reaction
Activation energy acts as a barrier for the reaction.

99
Calculate the Enthalpy change for this reaction:
3 O = O = 3 x 498 = 1494
Total = 4728 KJ
4 C= O = 4 x 805 = 3220
Total = 6004 KJ
Enthalpy change for complete combustion of ethanol = 4728 – 6004 = - 1276 KJ / mol exothermic
100
Using energy change of reaction to calculate bond energy
Let N―N = x
Bond broken of Reactants Bonds formed of Products
X – 253 = - 95
X = 158 KJ/mol
Why burning of hydrogen in air is an exothermic reaction in terms of bonds breaking and bonds
formation ? Bonds formation > Breaking of bonds
Breaking bonds absorbs energy (endothermic)
In an exothermic reaction :
Energy released in formation of new bonds of products is greater than energy absorbed to break bonds of reactants
In an endothermic reaction :
Energy absorbed to break bonds of reactants is greater than energy released in formation of new bonds of products
101
Rate of chemical reaction
Rate of a chemical reaction =speed of a chemical reaction
Fireworks explode in the sky very quickly, while rusting happens much slower.
Collision theory : For a reaction to occur, the reacting particles must collide.
A collision that has enough energy (greater than Activation energy EA ) to result in a chemical reaction is an
effective collision (successful collision)
Activation energy : minimum amount of energy required for particles to react at collision
When excess calcium carbonate (marble chips) reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl limited reagent= )هو المهم
1. Measuring rate of chemical reaction through measuring volume of gas produced at regular time
interval e.g. every 30 seconds.
Stopper (rubber bung) to prevent escape of gas .
Stop watch
Graph of the results showing the volume of carbon dioxide gas produced over time
102
How does the rate of reaction changes as the reaction proceeds?
At the start of the reaction, highest concentration of hydrochloric acid(H+ Hydrogen ions )so greatest number of
successful collisions per second between calcium carbonate (solid marble chip) and acid.
2. After a period time, the curve becomes less steep),showing that the reaction is slowing down.
As the reaction goes on, the concentration of acid decreases and so fewer successful collisions per second
3. Finally: The graph levels off (stops rising); gradient is zero, showing no more carbon dioxide produced.
The reaction has stopped (rate is zero) as all the acid has been used up
When can you know that the reaction has finished ? When the curve starts to be horizontal .
Rate of reaction decreases with time, till reaction stops (rate is zero).
103
Second method
2. Measure the rate of reaction, through measuring the decrease in mass of reaction mixture
across regular time interval.
The mass of the flask and contents decrease because carbon dioxide gas escape from flask .
2. Allow only carbon dioxide gas to escape and so the decrease in mass is due to escape of gas
Increasing surface area of a solid will increase the rate of the reaction
Powdered calcium carbonate has greater total surface area and so greater
number of successful collisions per second and so higher rate of reaction.
104
Lumps (large pieces) Powdered
Particles cannot get at the particles hidden in the middle of the solid fewer particles are now hidden away
A lump of coal will burn slowly in air, while coal dust can react explosively why?
The mass of the flask and contents is measured across regular time interval
Powder
Increase particle size Lumps = decrease surface area = low rate of reaction.
Smaller particle size Powder = large surface area = high rate of reaction
↑ Rate = curve shifts to the left, near to Y-axis ,steeper curve, and reaction ends sooner
↓ Rate = curve shifts to the right, far from Y-axis , less steep curve, and reaction ends later.
105
Effect of Concentration (of a solution) on rate of chemical reaction
Excess of CaCO3 is added to Hydrochloric acid HCl (aq) HCl is limited reagent
Experiment I: 100 cm3 of 1 mol/dm3 HCl (aq) cm3 = volume mol/dm3 = concentration
Double the final volume of CO2 is produced with 2 mol/dm3 HCl(as double the moles of HCl is used)
Why increasing the concentration, increases the rate of reaction, in terms of particles
collision theory?
1. More acid particles in same volume
The experiment is repeated using same mass of magnesium ribbon with 10cm3 of 0.25 mol/dm3 sulfuric acid
106
Effect of Temperature on rate of chemical reaction
As the temperature increases, the rate of chemical reaction increases
Why increasing the temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction, in terms of
particles collision theory?
Particles gain kinetic enery(Particles move faster)
Using a Catalyst:
What is meant by a Catalyst?
Catalyst is chemical substance which increases the rate of a reaction without being used up.
Hydrogen peroxide decomposes to form Water and Oxygen. The rate of decomposition at room temperature is
very slow. Manganese (IV) oxide MnO2 (black solid)can be used as catalyst to speed up this reaction.
When the Manganese (IV) oxide MnO2 is added to the hydrogen peroxide solution, we can visibly see more
bubbling of oxygen gas, visibly showing that it has increased the rate of reaction.
107
Show that Manganese (IV) oxide is unchanged at the end of the reaction (it is not a reactant)
Manganese IV oxide was weighed Before the reaction(before adding to the flask)
After the reaction, the manganese oxide was filtered (to remove the solid), dried (to remove water)
and then reweighed,
The mass was found to be the same, mass unchanged after the reaction.
Weigh before and after the reaction The mass is the same
Using powdered catalyst will show increase in reaction rate but same volume of oxygen gas.
Why using a Catalyst increases the rate of chemical reaction? Or how does catalyst work?
Catalyst provides an alternative reaction pathway with lower activation energy ( )طريق بديل مختصر

The reaction between sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid
This can be done by placing a conical flask containing the reaction mixture on to a cross on a piece of paper.
As the precipitate of sulfur forms, the cross is obscured and finally disappears from view. The time taken for the
cross to be obscured a measure of the rate of this reaction.
When the most concentrated sodium thiosulfate solution was used ,the reaction was at its fastest rate
This is shown by the shortest time taken for the cross to be obscured.

1) Changing temperature
Exothermic = ↑ temperature Endothermic = ↓ temperature
High temperature shifts position of equilibrium to the left as Backward reaction is endothermic
Low temperature shifts position of equilibrium to the right as Forward reaction is exothermic
113
2) Effect of changing pressure
For gases only
Difference in the number of moles of gas between Right side and Left side
Higher number of moles of gas = high pressure Lower number of moles of gas = low pressure
Low pressure shifts position of equilibrium to the Left as higher number of moles of gas on Left hand side
If there is no difference in number of moles of gas, change in pressure does not affect position of equilibrium.

Calculating Percentage yield % yield
The yield is the amount of product you obtain from a reaction.
A theoretical yield is the maximum possible amount of a product that can be made in a chemical reaction.
Theoretical yield is the predicted amount or mass of product (should be produced) نظري علي الورق بالحسابات
An actual yield is the amount a product actually obtained from the reaction.
If you calculate how much of a product you might get during a reaction, in real life you rarely get as much as
you expected.

Cracking of Alkanes
What is meant by Cracking?
Cracking is the decomposition of large Alkane by heat into smaller Alkane and Alkene
Cracking is an example of Thermal decomposition reaction
Cracking produces a mixture of Alkanes and Alkenes (NOT a single product)
Conditions of Cracking:
the forces of attraction between molecules(intermolecular forces) get stronger كل لما بكبربكون اقوي
1. Boling point increases. 2. The liquid becomes more Viscous (do not flow easily ). 3. Colour darkens
The hydrocarbons of crude oil are separated by Fractional Distillation accordindg to difference in boiling points
As you go down :
the number of Carbon atoms increases ,boiling point increases, more viscous ,darker colour , less flammable
The column is hotter at the bottom and cooler at the top (temperature gradient at the column)
Fractions condense (or collected) when temperature in the column is lower than their boiling point
Liquid Boiling point Gas
liquids are led out of the column at different heights due to difference in B.Ps
Heavier fractions (bigger molecules ) with high boiling points collected near the bottom of the column
Lighter fractions (smaller molecules ) with lower boling points collected near the top of the column.
The most viscous fraction is Bitumen. • The fraction with darkest colour is Bitumen
Compare between Gasoline and Diesel regarding chain length, boiling point, viscosity, colour and flammability
150
Why is Cracking useful in oil industry ?
1. Cracking produces smaller (or shorter chain )hydrocarbon molecules
smaller molecules are more useful as fuels. Smaller molecules are used to make more petrol
Polymers
Polymer is a long chain molecule formed from many small molecules called monomers joined together.
Polymerisation :Is the process where many small molecules (monomer)s are joined together to form a long
chain molecule (polymer).
Types of Polymerisation :
1. Addtion Polymerisation → form Addtion polymers
Addtion Polymerisation :
Only one product is produced in the reaction which is the polymer
Monomers must contain C=C (Monomers are unsaturated ). Alkenesundergo addtion polymerisation.
―A―A―A―A―A―A― A= monomer
151
Examples of Addtion Polymerisation :
1. Addtion Polymerisation of Ethene :
lots of Ethene molecules (monomers) are joined together where double bond is broken and neighbouring
molecules are joined to form large molecule called Poly(Ethene) (polymer)
Monomer: Ethene (g) Polymer: Poly (ethene) (s) Repeated unit of Poly(ethene)
n= represents a large number The structure in the brackets repeats itself many times .
