  • What do we expect from you in meetings |Chemistry Tuition IGCSE SABIS O A LEVEL K CHEMISTRY

    What are we expecting from you? 1. Do’s Find a clean, quiet space and dress appropriately. Let all household members know when and where you will be in class, and ask them not to disturb you. Make sure your full name shows up appropriately. Be aware of your background, lighting, and noise. Mute until you are required to talk. Use the Zoom functions to communicate if needed (chat, raise your hand, answer yes/no, etc.). Use an appropriate zoom background if you wish. Turn off/silence cell phone and close other windows on your computer. Be on time to class. Communicate with your instructor (via their preferred communication method listed on the syllabus) if you will be late or if you lose your connection during class. Pay attention! Maintain eye contact with the speaker on the screen. Be prepared to take notes (on your computer or in a designated notebook) or to access course material (have textbook, D2L course page, or readings available). 2. Don’ts Enter a zoom that you weren't invited to, share the zoom access information for your class with others, or enter under a different name. Take screenshots, cell phone pictures, or otherwise record the meeting, your classmates, or your instructor without express permission to do so. Change your name or change your zoom background during the meeting. Walk around during the class meeting. Use the chat for side conversations with classmates. Sit in front of a window or bright light, this will make your face too dark to see. Have conversations with household members off camera. Allow household members to walk around behind you during the meeting. Engage in texting, social media, work from other classes, or other distractions while in class Frequently asked questions

  • Chemical energetics

    < Back Previous Next ecessary to know the bonds present in both the reactants and products How to complete bond energy calculations Write a balanced equation if none is present already Optional - draw the displayed formula in order to identify the type and number of bonds more easily Add together all the bond energies for all the bonds in the reactants – this is the ‘energy in’ Add together the bond energies for all the bonds in the products – this is the ‘energy out’ Calculate the enthalpy change: Enthalpy change (Δ H ) = Energy taken in - Energy given out Worked Example Hydrogen and chlorine react to form hydrogen chloride gas: H2 + Cl2 ⟶ 2HCl The bond energies are given in the table below. Bond Energy (kJ) H–H 436 Cl–Cl 242 H–Cl 431 Calculate the overall energy change for this reaction and use this value to explain whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic. Answer: Calculate the energy in 436 + 242 = 678 (kJ) Calculate the energy out 2 x 431 = 862 (kJ) Calculate the energy change 678 - 862 = –184 (kJ) Since the energy change is a negative number, energy is being released (to the surroundings) Therefore, the reaction is exothermic Examiner Tips and Tricks When calculating enthalpy change using bond energies, it is helpful to write down a displayed formula equation for the reaction before identifying the type and number of bonds, to avoid making mistakes. So, the reaction for the above worked example is: H-H + Cl-Cl → H-Cl + H-Cl Worked Example Hydrogen reacts with iodine to form hydrogen iodide. H2 + I2 ⟶ 2HI The relevant bond energies are shown in the table below. Bond Energy (kJ) H–I 295 H–H 436 I–I 151 Calculate the overall energy change for this reaction and use this value to explain why the reaction is exothermic. Answer: Calculate the energy in 436 + 151 = 587 (kJ) Calculate the energy out 2 x 295 = 590 (kJ) Calculate the energy change 587 - 590 = -3 (kJ) The reaction is exothermic because: More energy is released than taken in Worked Example Hydrogen bromide decomposes to form hydrogen and bromine: 2HBr ⟶ H2 + Br2 The overall energy change for this reaction is +103 kJ. The relevant bond energies are shown in the table below. Bond Energy (kJ) H–Br 366 Br–Br H–H 436 Calculate the bond energy of the Br–Br bond. Answer: Calculate the energy in 2 x 366 = 732 (kJ) State the energy out 436 + Br–Br Overall energy change = energy in - energy out +103 = 732 - (436 + Br–Br) +103 = 732 - 436 - Br–Br Calculate the bond energy of the Br–Br bond Br–Br = 732 - 436 - 103 Br–Br = + 193 (kJ) Chemical energetics Next Topic

  • Electricity Lesson 3

    < Back Previous Next 💎🔬 Purification 🔬💎 Purification involves using electrolysis to remove impurities from a metal. For instance, in the purification of copper: The cathode (-ve electrode) is pure copper. The anode (+ve electrode) is impure copper. The electrolyte is aqueous copper (II) sulfate. During electrolysis, copper ions (Cu2+) in the electrolyte are reduced (gain electrons) at the cathode and become solid copper atoms. Meanwhile, solid copper atoms at the anode are oxidized (lose electrons) and become copper ions (Cu2+), entering the electrolyte. This maintains the electrolyte's concentration, as the ions being deposited on the cathode are replaced by the ions from the anode. Any impurities in the anode copper do not dissolve and fall to the bottom. ⚗️🧪 Electroplating 🧪⚗️ Electroplating is a process that uses electrolysis to coat a metal object with a thin layer of another metal. The primary purposes of electroplating are to enhance the object's appearance and to protect it from corrosion. In a typical electroplating process: The cathode (-ve electrode) is the object to be electroplated. The anode (+ve electrode) is the metal used for coating (for example, silver). The electrolyte is a solution containing ions of the metal used for coating (for example, silver nitrate). As electrolysis proceeds, metal ions from the electrolyte are reduced at the cathode and become solid metal atoms, adhering to the object's surface. Meanwhile, at the anode, the metal is oxidized and releases ions into the electrolyte, maintaining its concentration. It's crucial to ensure the object to be electroplated is clean and entirely immersed in the electrolyte. Also, rotating it can help achieve an even coating. Regarding your reference to a past paper question (Specimen 2023, 2, q30), could you provide more context or the actual question? Unfortunately, I can't access specific past papers beyond my knowledge cut-off in September 2021. However, I'd be more than happy to help if you could provide more details about the question!
