- Activation energy, Ea, is the minimum energy required for a reaction to take place.
- Enthalpy profile diagrams – a diagram that shows the relative enthalpies of the reactants and the products and the enthalpy change ΔH .
- Enthalpy – H - is the measure of the heat energy in a chemical system.
- Standard pressure – 100 kPa
- Standard temperature – 298K
- Standard Enthalpy change of Reaction - ΔrHϴ - the enthalpy change that accompanies the reaction in the molar quantities shown in a chemical equation, under standard conditions, with all their reactants and products in their standard states.
- Standard Enthalpy change of formation - ΔfHϴ - the enthalpy change that takes place when one mole of a compound is formed from elements, under standard conditions, with all their reactants and products in their standard states.
- Standard Enthalpy change of combustion - ΔcHϴ - the enthalpy change that takes place when one mole of a substance reacts completely with oxygen, under standard conditions, with all their reactants and products in their standard states.
- Standard Enthalpy change of neutralisation - ΔneutHϴ - is the energy change that accompanies the reaction of an acid by a base to form one mole of H2O (l), under standard conditions, with all their reactants and products in their standard states.

- First ionisation energy – the energy required to remove one electron from each atom in one mole of gaseous atoms of an element to form one mole of gaseous 1+ ions.
- Second Ionisation Energy - is the energy required to remove one electron from each atom in one mole of gaseous 1+ ions of an element to form one mole of gaseous 2+ ions.
- Metallic bonding – fixed lattice of cations (positive ions) surrounded by a sea of delocalised electrons to create a giant metallic lattice.

Due 2nd December 2015
Finish off the worksheet started in lesson as revision before VIMAII. (example questions relating to amount of substance).
Due Wednesday 25th November (a.k.a - THE DAY OF VIMAII)
Complete ALL of the worksheet attached, with past paper questions. These questions will be most similar to the actual questions you will be answering in your A-level exams, so this is one of the most important worksheets you will have completed to date. Make sure you put in as much effort as possible. We will go through this as revision for the first 30 minutes on Wednesday, then your VIMAII is 1.5hrs.
Due 18th November 2015 (set 11/11/2015)

The worksheet from class on Monday also has to be completed if not done so in lesson. (Link to worksheet here if needed)
Due - Wednesday 11th November (Set 04/11/2015) - 2 pieces of h/wk
1. Page 67 in textbook - complete question 3 (if you want to push yourself, try 4 and 5 as well)
2. Copy out each definition 10 times each. (This is to help you learn the definitions word for word, so DO NOT write...
'Ionic
Ionic
Ionic' etc.
as it will not help you remember the definition and will be a waste of your time and not beneficial!
- Ionic bonding is the electrostatic attraction between positive and negative ions. It holds together cations and anions in ionic compounds.
- Covalent bonding – is the strong electrostatic attraction between a shared pair of electrons and the nuclei of the bonded atoms.
- Dative covalent bond (or co-ordinate bond) is a covalent bond in which the shared pair of electrons has been supplied by one of the bonding atoms only.
- Polar – with charges at different ends of the molecule caused by electronegative atoms
- Electronegative – a measure of the attraction of a bonded atom for the pair of electrons in a covalent bond.
- Salt – a product where the H+ ions in an acid are replaced by metal or ammonium ions.
- Base – a compound that neutralises an acid and acts as a proton acceptor.
- Acid – a species that donates/releases H+ ions in aqueous solution.
