Foundations in Chemistry – Module 2

This module is designed to build upon the fundamental concepts learned in GCSE Chemistry.

Models that were sufficient to explain and predict the chemistry at GCSE level are modified and extended to be able to explain the properties and reactions of a wider range of chemical species that are encountered at Advanced Level.

Examples of this include:

  • refining the model of electronic structure of atoms and ions to explain the formation of compounds where atoms expand their octet.
  • development of the ideal gas equation for the calculation of the amount of gases under non-standard conditions.
  • introduction of the oxidation numbers model to allow students to identify REDOX reactions for more challenging examples that don’t involve simple ions.
  • explanation and application of electronegativity to allow students to appreciate the non-binary nature of bonding, i.e. ionic ‘v’ covalent. Also, electronegativity is used to explain the polarity of bonds and the resulting strength of intermolecular forces.

Foundations in Chemisty

Period Table & Energy – Module 3

This module focuses mainly on the inorganic and physical branches of chemistry. Many topics within this module will be familiar to students from GCSE but those foundations will be built open.

Skills developed in Module 2: Foundations in Chemistry, will be necessary to underpin the learning in the module.

Examples of concept developed in the module include:

  • the concept of periodicity will be studied from several perspectives including the variation in the sizes of atoms, first ionization energies as evidence for electronic structure, and the nature of bonding within elements across a period.
  • study of the chemistry of Group 2 and a comparison with Group 1, studied at GCSE.
  • further study of the chemistry of Group 7 to demonstrate the ability of the halogens to form higher oxidation states in compounds.
  • more sophisticated explanations of the effect of conditions on reaction rates by the use of Maxwell-Bolzman distribution profiles.
  • a more quantitative approach to the description of equilibrium position through the calculation of equilibrium constant, Kc.
  • the simple understanding of energy changes in chemical reactions, introduced in GCSE, will be strengthened by defining several specific enthalpy changes and by the application of Hess’s Law.

Period Table & Energy

Core Organic Chemistry – Module 4

  • This module extends some of the physical chemistry topics that were introduced in Module 3. These include:
    • a quantitative approach will be taken towards the explanation of the factors affecting rate including concentration and temperature.
    • rate equations will be developed for chemical processes to predict the effect of a change in concentration of a reactant upon the rate of reaction and to allow reaction mechanisms to be suggested.
    • equilibrium position will be further quantified and extended to cover the equilibrium constant, Kp.
    • equilibrium position in acid-base equilibria will be quantified using equilibrium constant Ka. This will be applied to estimate the pH of strong and weak acids, and partially neutralised weak acids (buffers)
    • lattice enthalpies will be explained and calculated using Born-Haber Cycles.
    • thermodynamics will be studied at a basic level so that reaction feasibility can be predicted at varied temperatures. The topic will include the concept of entropy and Gibbs (free) Energy.
    • electrochemistry will be covered so that the function of disposable, rechargeable and fuel cells can be understood.
    This module also introduces some new concepts associated with the chemistry of transition elements. In order to explain some of the aspects of transition metal chemistry, the application of REDOX understanding will be further developed.

Physical Chemistry & Transition Elements

Organic Chemistry & Analysis – Module 6

In this module, more organic families with new functional groups will be introduced. General principles of organic chemistry, learned in Module 4, will be applied to help name, explain and predict the chemistry of these new organic families. The new families include:

  • aromatic molecules (arenes)
  • carboxylic acids their derivatives (esters, anhydrides, acyl chlorides)
  • nitrogen containing groups; amines, amides and amino acids

The concept of polymerisation, first introduced at GCSE, will be expanded to cover addition and condensation polymerisation (polyesters and polyamides).

Organic synthesis will be extended to cover reaction sequences covering several steps.

The analytical technique of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy will be introduced as a sensitive technique for identifying the arrangement of atoms in organic chemical structures. Interpretation of NMR, IR and Mass Spectra, will be used in combination to confirm the identity of organic molecules.

OCR Flash Cards

These Revision Flash-Cards are specific to the OCR A Chemistry Specification. 

Each Module (2-6) is presented in a different colour to make them easier to sort.

OCR Topic Titles have been filled in for you so that they match the OCR specification order.

It’s up to you what questions/answers you write on the cards!  

The cards should be folded carefully down the bold black line in the middle of each sheet.

The sheets should be glued on the blank back with a glue stick so that the questions are all on one side and the answers on the other. You may want to lay them under a heavy stack of books to make sure that they are flattened while the glue dries.

Each sheet of 4 questions and answers can then be cut into 4 separate cards. 

Test yourself or get other people to test you on them. Practice, practice, practice!
