  1. Briefing Seminar on the Revised Sixth Form Chemistry Curriculum Highlight of Major Changes (From Section 8 to 14) (March 19, 2005)

  2. Periodic Properties of the Elements in the Periodic Table Existing 8.2 Periodic relationship among the oxides, chlorides and simple hydrides of the elements Li to Cl Revised 7.2 Periodic relationship among the oxides of the elements Li to Cl

  3. The s-Block Elements • Revised • 8.2 • Reactions of the elements with oxygen and water. • Reactions of the oxides with water, dilute acids and dilute alkalis. • ------- • Existing • 9.2 • Reactions of the elements with hydrogen, oxygen, chlorine and water. • Reactions of the oxides, hydrides and chlorides with water, acids and alkalis. • 9.3 Uses of the compounds • of the s-block elements

  4. The p-Block Elements • Existing • 10.1 • Uses of halogens and halogen containing compounds • 10.2 Nitrogen and its Compounds • 10.3 Sulphur and its Compounds • Revised • ------- • ------- • ------- • 9.2 Group IV elements • to bring out the differences between elements in a particular group • To illustrate the structure-property relationship through the study of silicates

  5. The d-Block Elements • Existing • 11.2(b) • Studies limited to complexes of Fe(II), Fe(III), Co(II) and Cu(II) with the following ligands: …. • Stereo-structures of 4- and 6-coordinated complexes • 11.2(c) Coloured ions Revised 10.2(b) - Formation of transition metal complexes as with monodentate ligands (H2O, NH3, Cl–and CN–), bidentate ligands (H2NCH2CH2NH2 and C2O42–) and multidentate ligands (EDTA). ------- -------

  6. Fundamentals of Organic Chemistry New Features 11.1 Bonding and structure 11.5 Organic acids and organic bases 11.6 Reaction mechanism

  7. Chemistry of Organic Compounds • Link up the class of compounds with their major type of reactions • Place emphasis on the mechanistic aspects • Reduce the number of reactions • Add a separated section of redox reactions (Section 12.7) • Introduce structure • determination by modern • spectroscopic methods • (IR and MS) (Section 12.8)

  8. Chemistry in Action • A completely new section to replace Chemistry and Society • Link up Chemistry with STS elements (Polymers and Drugs) (Sections 13.1-13.2) • e.g. effect of structure on properties of polymers, • key stages of drug development • - With contemporary topics such as Green Chemistry (Section 13.3)
