Leaving Cert Chemistry Bundle

This lesson covers the atomic chemistry section of leaving cert chemistry, which includes atomic structure, electrons & orbitals, trends in the periodic table, bonding and radioactivity. This is a broad topic with a lot of content and every year it makes up question 5 of the exam paper, as well as various other smaller questions. After completing this lesson, you'll have a much better understanding of these topics and how to answer questions on them. In this lesson we will cover Higher Level Leaving Cert Chemistry Atomic Chemistry. This lesson will cover:

• Atomic Structure
• Electron Configurations
• Trends in the Periodic Table
• Bonding
• Intermolecular Forces
• Radioactivity
• Exam Questions

With lessons, tests, hotspots, games and interactive videos, improve your knowledge of Chemistry in the topic of Atomic Chemistry!

This lesson will cover the stoichiometry section of Leaving Cert Chemistry. This is the maths side of chemistry and for this lesson, you'll need a periodic table and a calculator! We will cover moles and how to convert from moles to mass, number of molecules, gas volume and concentration, and then how to apply these skills to working out different bits of information about a reaction. After completing this course, you'll have a much better understanding of how to answer all the different kinds of stoichiometry questions in leaving cert chemistry papers. In this lesson we will cover Higher Level Leaving Cert Chemistry Stoichiometry. This lesson will cover:

• The Mole, Mass, Molecules, Volume and Concentration
• Two-Part Questions
• Three-Part Questions
• Reactants in Excess
• Percentage Yield
• Empirical Formula
• Exam Paper

With lessons, tests, hotspots, games and interactive videos, improve your knowledge of Chemistry in the topic of Stoichiometry!

A titration is an experiment carried out to determine the concentration of a solution. There are 6 titrations on the leaving cert chemistry course, and each year one of them will make up question 1 on the exam paper. In this lesson, we will look at the theory behind each of these 6 titrations, how to carry out the experiment and how to calculate the concentration of a solution using stoichiometry. In this lesson we will cover Higher Level Leaving Cert Chemistry Titrations. This lesson will cover:

• Titration Basics
• Hydrochloric Acid and Sodium Carbonate
• Ethanoic Acid and Sodium Hydroxide
• Potassium Permanganate and Iron
• Sodium Thiosulphate and Iodine
• Hardness of Water
• Dissolved Oxygen Content in Water
• Exam Questions

With lessons, tests, hotspots, games and interactive videos, improve your knowledge of Chemistry in the topic of Titrations!

Equilibrium is the point in a reversible reaction where the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the backward reaction - or, more simply, the point at which the reaction settles down. Equilibrium is like the reset point for the reaction, and it will always return to this point. In this lesson we will gain a better understanding of chemical equilibrium. We will also look at how to calculate the equilibrium point and how to predict how the reaction will respond to different changes. In this lesson we will cover Higher Level Leaving Cert Chemistry Equilibrium. This lesson will cover:

• Dynamic Equilibrium
• Equilibrium Constant Expression
• Calculating the Equilibrium Constant
• Le Chatelier's Principle
• Exam Questions

With lessons, tests, hotspots, games and interactive videos, improve your knowledge of Chemistry in the topic of Equilibrium!

This course is an Annual Subscription. In this lesson, you will learn all about the two main theories of acids and bases - Bronsted-Lowry and Arrhenius - and how acids and bases react with each other. We will also cover the concept of pH and how to calculate the pH value for a strong acid, a strong base, a weak acid and a weak base. In this lesson we will cover Higher Level Leaving Cert Chemistry Acids & Bases and pH. This lesson will cover:

• Acids and Bases
• Arrhenius Theory
• Bronsted-Lowry Theory
• Calculating pH
• Indicators
• Exam Questions

With lessons, tests, hotspots, games and interactive videos, improve your knowledge of Chemistry in the topic of Acids & Bases and pH!

A true understanding of water as a compound is really central to chemistry and will help you with other topics like pH and titrations. In this lesson we will focus on hardness in water, drinking water treatment and waste water treatment. We will also go through the three important water experiments - how to test a water sample for total hardness, for dissolved oxygen content and for the concentration of free chlorine. In this lesson we will cover Higher Level Leaving Cert Chemistry Water. This lesson will cover:

• Characteristics of Water
• Water and Sewage Treatment
• Experiment 1: Hardness of Water
• Experiment 2: Dissolved Oxygen Content in Water
• Experiment 3: Free Chlorine in Swimming Pool
• Exam Questions

With lessons, tests, hotspots, games and interactive videos, improve your knowledge of Chemistry in the topic of Water!

Thermochemistry involves studying how heat and temperature change in chemical reactions. We need to understand the two main types of reactions - endothermic and exothermic reactions - as well as a few definitions, and how to calculate the total change of heat in a reaction.We'll then learn about how fuels are produced and processed and what makes one fuel more efficient than another. Together, these will take up question 6 on the exam paper. In this lesson we will cover Higher Level Leaving Cert Chemistry Thermochemistry and Fuels. This lesson will cover:

• Heat
• Heat of Combustion
• Calculating the Heat of Reaction
• Crude Oil Extraction
• Octane Number
• Exam Questions

With lessons, tests, hotspots, games and interactive videos, improve your knowledge of Chemistry in the topic of Thermochemistry and Fuels!

Organic chemistry is an important topic which makes up a large portion of the leaving cert paper. In this lesson, we will first discuss 8 families of chemical compounds called homologous series - the alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and esters. We will then describe the different types of chemical reactions that these compounds can take part in, and how members from one family can be converted to members of another. In this lesson we will cover Higher Level Leaving Cert Chemistry Organic Chemistry. This lesson will cover:

• Organic Compounds
• Naming and Drawing Organic Compounds
• Hydrocarbons
• Alcohols, Aldehydes, Ketones, Carboxylic Acids and Esters
• Reaction Types
• Organic Synthesis
• Exam Questions

With lessons, tests, hotspots, games and interactive videos, improve your knowledge of Chemistry in the topic of Organic Chemistry!
