This document provides a table of specification for a Science 9 exam on the topic of Matter. It outlines 13 learning competencies to be assessed, organized under topics including electronic structure of atoms, chemical bonding, carbon compounds, and the mole concept. For each competency it lists the number of hours of instruction, number of test items, and the percentage of the exam allocated. It then identifies which items assess knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, evaluation and synthesis for each competency. The total exam consists of 50 items testing 38 hours of instruction across the various topics.
