Topics Covered:
1. Periodic Table
2. Atomic Structure & Bonding
3. Chemical Equations
4. Reaction Rates
🔹 PART A: Multiple Choice (10 Marks)
Sample questions included:
● Determining atomic number from protons/neutrons.
● Position of elements in the Periodic Table based on shells & valence electrons.
● Understanding how full electron shells relate to atomic number.
● Identifying types of bonding (ionic, covalent).
● Characteristics of metals and nonmetals.
● Predicting formulas of compounds (e.g., magnesium chloride = MgCl₂).
👉 Tips:
● Groups = vertical columns (indicate valence electrons).
● Periods = horizontal rows (indicate number of shells).
● Noble gases = full outer shells.
