Nicee 🔥 . That means SS1 is locked in.
Let’s keep going with the SS2 Chemistry Full Note
(Visual Notebook Style).
SS2 Chemistry Notes
1. States of Matter & Gas Laws
📌 Diffusion:
Movement of gas/liquid molecules from region of high concentration → low concentration.
● Lighter gases diffuse faster (e.g., H₂ diffuses faster than O₂).
📌 Gas Laws:
1. Boyle’s Law (constant T):
(Pressure inversely proportional to Volume).
2. Charles’s Law (constant P):
(Volume directly proportional to Temperature in Kelvin).
3. Pressure Law (constant V):
(Pressure directly proportional to Temperature in Kelvin).
4. Ideal Gas Equation:
(Sketch: Graph of Boyle’s law – hyperbola; Graph of Charles’s law – straight line through origin.)
2. Chemical Calculations
📌 Empirical Formula:
● Simplest ratio of atoms in a compound.
📌 Molecular Formula:
● Actual number of atoms.
● Formula: Molecular mass ÷ Empirical mass
📌 Percentage Composition:
\% \text{Element} = \frac{\text{Mass of element}}{\text{Mass of compound}} \times 100
📌 Stoichiometry:
● Uses balanced equations for mole calculations.
Example:
Find the moles of O₂ needed to burn 8g of methane (CH₄).
Equation:
Moles of CH₄ = 8 ÷ 16 = 0.5 mol.
✅
From equation: 1 mol CH₄ needs 2 mol O₂.
So, 0.5 mol CH₄ needs 1.0 mol O₂.
3. Electrochemistry
📌 Electrolysis:
Decomposition of a substance using electricity.
📌 Electrodes:
● Anode (+): attracts anions (Cl⁻, SO₄²⁻).
● Cathode (-): attracts cations (Na⁺, Cu²⁺).
📌 Applications:
● Electroplating metals (e.g., gold, silver).
● Purification of copper.
● Extraction of metals (e.g., Na from molten NaCl).
(Sketch: Electrolysis cell – battery connected to anode & cathode in electrolyte solution.)
4. Oxidation & Reduction
📌 Definitions:
● Oxidation: loss of electrons, addition of oxygen.
● Reduction: gain of electrons, removal of oxygen.
📌 Mnemonic:
OIL RIG = Oxidation Is Loss, Reduction Is Gain (of electrons).
📌 Redox Reaction Example:
Zn + CuSO₄ → ZnSO₄ + Cu
5. Organic Chemistry Basics
📌 Hydrocarbons: compounds made of C & H only.
● Alkanes (C H₂ ₊₂): saturated, single bonds (e.g., CH₄).
● Alkenes (C H₂ ): unsaturated, double bonds (e.g., C₂H₄).
● Alkynes (C H₂ ₋₂): unsaturated, triple bonds (e.g., C₂H₂).
📌 Functional Groups:
● Alcohol = –OH
● Carboxylic acid = –COOH
● Aldehyde = –CHO
● Ketone = C=O
📌 Naming (IUPAC Rules):
1. Longest carbon chain.
2. Number chain from nearest functional group.
3. Add prefix/suffix.
(Example: CH₃CH₂OH = Ethanol)
6. Types of Organic Reactions
● Addition: C=C double bond breaks, atoms add (e.g., H₂ + C₂H₄ → C₂H₆).
● Substitution: Atom replaced (e.g., CH₄ + Cl₂ → CH₃Cl + HCl).
● Elimination: Atoms removed (e.g., alcohol → alkene + H₂O).
● Combustion: Hydrocarbon + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O.
● Esterification: Acid + Alcohol → Ester + Water.
7. Solutions
📌 Definitions:
● Solute: substance dissolved.
● Solvent: liquid dissolving solute.
● Solution: homogeneous mixture of solute + solvent.
📌 Types:
● Saturated: cannot dissolve more solute.
● Unsaturated: can still dissolve more solute.
● Supersaturated: contains more solute than it should at that temperature.
📌 Concentration Formula:
C = \frac{\text{Amount of solute}}{\text{Volume of solvent}}
🔥 That’s SS2 Chemistry Note done, in the same visual notebook style.
👉 Next, I’ll prepare the SS3 Chemistry Note (full).
Do you want me to drop SS3 now straight up, or should I pause here for you to check SS2
first like we did for SS1?
