OCR Advanced GCE Chemistry. Specification Chemistry A, H432 Module 1- Development of practical skills in chemistry. This unit develops the practical skills fundamental to understanding the nature of chemistry. Module 2- Foundations in chemistry. This module includes: atomic structure, quantitative chemistry based on the mole, reactions of acids, redox reactions, bonding and structure. Module 3- Periodic table and energy. This module covers: The Periodic Table, enthalpy changes, rates of reaction, yield and sustainability. Module 4- Core organic chemistry. This module is fundamental to the study of organic chemistry and provides learners with an understanding of: nomenclature, aliphatic hydrocarbons, alcohols and haloalkanes, organic synthesis and instrumental analytical techniques. Module 5- Physical chemistry and transition elements. This module builds on the concepts covered in module 3 and includes: rate equations, equilibrium constants, acid-base equilibria, Born-Haber cycles, entropy and free energy, electrochemical cells, redox chemistry and transition elements. Module 6- Organic chemistry and analysis. This module builds on concepts covered in module 4 and introduces new functional groups. The main area of study include: aromatic compounds, carboxylic acids and esters, organic nitrogen compounds, polymerisation, synthesis and modern analytic techniques.
