Course Outline –Chemical Sciences
Term 1 - 2015
This course will focus on:
Describe the structure of an atom and differentiate between atoms, molecules, elements and compounds.
Using a periodic table, determine the different groups of metals and memorise 30 elements (and their
symbols) of the PT.
Calculate the atomic number, mass number and number of protons, neutrons and electrons of elements.
Draw electron shell diagrams and use the electron configuration.
Determine between cations and anions and describe how they form.
Students write chemical formula and use it to write chemical reactions.
Differentiate between the various acid reactions by determining their products and reactants and
practically test the presence of different gases formed.
Give examples of different reactions (endothermic, exothermic, photosynthesis, respiration &
combustion reactions).
You will be required to bring to each class:
