IGCSE Chemistry 0620

Chemistry is the scientific discipline that investigates the properties, composition, structure, and transformations of matter. It is a fundamental branch of science that explores the interactions between atoms, molecules, and various substances, as well as the energy changes that occur during these interactions. Chemistry plays a crucial role in understanding the world around us, from the composition of the air we breathe to the complex reactions happening within our bodies. In this IGCSE Chemistry course, you will learn about the atom, how chemical reactions occur at the quantum scale, how energy is transferred during chemical reactions, and finally, learn about the most up-to-date field in chemisty, organic chemistry.

States of matter

The Nature of matter composes the root studies of chemistry, understanding how physical properties relate to each other.

Experimental Techniques

You will learn about the apparatus and procedures used in chemistry. You will learn the usage of each tool, regarding when, how and why. You will also learn how we can combine apparatus and measurements to gather specific information.

Atoms, Molecules and Compounds

You will explore the rudimentary concepts of matter’s structure and how it is manipulated to form different substances from the same set of fundamental building blocks. We also indulge into why specific substances exhibit certain properties.

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is the study of the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in chemical reactions, including mass and mole ratios.

Electrochemistry

You will investigate the relationship between electricity and chemical reactions, including the study of redox reactions, electrolysis, and electrochemical cells.

Chemical Energetics

You will learn about the energy changes associated with chemical reactions and how to calculate them.

Chemical Reactions

Chemical reactions involve the transformation of substances, where atoms are rearranged, bonds are broken and formed, resulting in new products.

Acids and bases

You will undsertand the difference between acids and bases, and know how they play a crucial role in pH, neutralization, and chemical equilibrium.

The Periodic Table Of Elements

Using the periodic table is the most essential practice in chemistry, this unit explains the structure of the periodic table and the trends present across it.

Metals

In this unit we look at what metals are and what gives them their special properties, as well as how to extract, manipulate and predict reactivities of metals.

Environmental Chemistry

Chemistry is crucial for maintaining our environemnt, we look at all the different ways we use to ensure that our planet stays habitable.

Organic Chemistry

Organic chemistry considers basic carbon-based compounds, from learning how to name them and predict their properties to learning how to synthesize them for bulletproof uses.
