These Question Topics Have Occurred in Module 1 Past Papers I Have Examined

These question topics have occurred in module 1 past papers:

This is not a full list, it’s just to give you an idea for what has been in previous module 1 papers.

Topics you are doing with Mr. Barnett:

What measurements do we obtain from MS (lots of times) including molecular ion and base peak, but not fragmentation

MS – principles, 4 or 5 processes, what can we adjust, decoding plots, what determines deflection? (lots of times)

Equations of first and second ionisation energy (lots of times)

Describe AND explain trends of first ionisation energy across period 2 or 3(lots of times)
ORcomparisons like: “why 1st i.e. for Kr is > 1st i.e. for Br or 2nd i.e. for Be is > first i.e.”

Electronic configurations of elements (lots of times)

Including strange electronic configurations of Cr, Cu and ions of transition metals (weird facts 1 & 2 in your notes)

Isotopes – defined or explained (lots of times)

Calculating Ar (lots of times)

Definition of Ar and / orMr

Concentrations from moles / Moles from concentrations (lots of times)

Masses from moles and moles from masses (lots of times)

Empirical formulae – defined and calculated (lots of times)

Equations – balancing and writing your own

Ideal gas equation (lots of times)

Gas volume from grams of solid or volume of solution or similar

Multi-step moles to grams to concentration to moles to volumes

Titration

Electronegativity – definition (lots of times)

Electronegativity – trends in period 2 or 3 across periodic table (lots of times)

Other trends in period 2 and 3 – atomic radius, ionic radius, formulas of oxides and chlorides, melting points. (need to explain these trends)

Topics you are doing with Mrs. Bates :

Bond angles and shapes of molecules (lots of times) e.g. BCl2, CCl2, BF3, NF3, ClF3, SF4, XeF4, SO2,

All bond types and why they form

Lone pairs to be drawn or explained

Bonding in iodine / iodine crystals

Intermolecular forces – strengths (lots of times)

Hydrogen bonds – draw or explain + diagrams (lots of times)

Dipoles in covalent bonds, polarisation of bonds – ionic and covalent

Dative bonds (again and again)

G1 metals reacting with water

Melting points of ionic and covalent compounds including NaCl and graphite

Why certain compounds need more or less energy to melt than certain others

Why certain compounds are good conductors/insulators/strong/brittle etc.

Alkanes, alkenes, nomenclature, simple reactions like polymerisation, cracking and addition.
