1.

Isotopes - learn everything about isotopes from how to identify isotopes to uses of isotopes
2. How ionic bond and covalent bond are form* MUST study this topic, learn to write in essay 3. Cooling curve of naphthalene - learn everything about the curve e.g why the temperature is constant, what is the energy change from one phase( solid, liquid or gas) to another, draw the arrangement of particles, explain in kinetic theory of matter 4. Calculation questions from Form4 Chapter 3 and 7 * MUST learn and understand the concept because once you understand the concept, you can answer the questions no matter how the questions is being asked. 5. Periodic Table - all parts can be asked in one question, e.g describe the position of an element, give example of diatomic molecule ..... - learn reactivity of Group 1 and 17 with water - know the chemical equation 6. Contact process/ Haber process/ composite material *MUST learn Go through also glass & ceramic and synthetic polymer if got time 7. Rate of reaction - temperature/ total surface area/ catalyst - learn to explain using collision theory 8. Carbon Compound - alkene/ alcohol - learn all the conversion regarding these two compoung - coagulation of latex - learn the process and draw diagram 9. Oxidation and reduction - U-tube - oxidizing agent - acidified KMnO 4 / acidified K2CrO7/ Cl2/ Br2; reducing agent - KI / FeSO4 ; displacement of halide by halogen 10. Thermochemistry - displacement/precipitation,sketch energy level diagram* MUST learn - learn also combustion, just in case because this heat of combustion never come in calculation for the past 5 years 11. Preparation of soap, explain cleansing action of soap and detergent in hard water/soft water, learn to draw the diagrams as well 12. Electrolysis - type of electrode (copper electrode), compare electrolytic cell and voltaic cell 13. Preparation of salt There is no guarantee that which topics will come out in Paper 2. Anyway, there is no harm for you to focus on the above topics because they are really popular exam topics. 1. Empirical formula study for both CuO and MgO - Precautions when carry out the experiment - Draw set-up of apparatus - Observation - Calculation in determining the empirical formula ( Question No 3 in Paper 2) 2. Periodic Table - Group 1 element both physical and chemical properties (Question No.2 in Paper 2) - Group 18 element physical properties and uses - Transition element special characteristics - Amphoteric

3. Carbon compound - Alkane - Alkene (Question No 4 and No7 Paper 2) ( Alcohol also came out again this year) - how to prepare ester - when an ester is given, you should be able to name the alcohol and carboxylic acid used 4. Chemical bond - Describe formation of ionic and covalent bond - Conductivity of electric and heat - Solubility in water and organic solvent 5. Redox reaction (Experiment about reduction and redox reaction by the transfer of electrons at a distance) (Question No 9 Paper 2) - Explain the process of rusting - Define term of Redox reaction 6. Electrolysis - Chemical cell (Question No 8 Paper 2) (Factor of concentration for electrolytic cell also came out this year) - Define term of chemical cell 7. Soap and detergent - How to make soap - Advantages and disadvantages of soap and detergent - Process of cleansing action 8. Contact process and Haber process - uses of sulphuric aced - uses of ammonia - industrial process of ammonia 9. Thermochemistry ( Heat of neutralisation, I didnt spot this heat because it has came out before. It seems like next time we should cover all the heat. Heat that had come out will come out again and heat that havent come out not necessarily will come out in the following year) (Question No 6 Paper 2) - Heat of displacement/ precipitation same concept in calculation - Heat of combustion 10. Salt - Prepare soluble salt or insoluble salt learn to draw apparatus set up - Indentify anion or cation in a given solution (Question No 10 Paper 2)(Question about acidity came out again this year in this same question) 11. Rate of reaction ( The factor of concentration, I didnt spot this factor because it has came out before. It seems like next time we should cover all the factors. Factor that had come out will come out again and factors that havent come out not necessarily will come out in the following year) ( Question No 5 Paper 2) - Factor of catalyst - Factor of temperature

12. Manufactured substances in industry - Uses of alloy, glass and polymers (Question No.1 in Paper 2) 13. Experiment of vulcanized and unvulcanized rubber 1.
