H2 CHEMISTRY PRACTICAL
We provide A-Level / H2 and O-Level Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Science (Physics/Chemistry/Biology) Practical training for private / school candidates and homeschoolers, for both local (eg. H2, Singapore-Cambridge) and international exams (CIE, IGCSE). School candidates are also welcome.
NEW!
H2 CHEMISTRY HANDS-ON PRACTICAL CRASH COURSE
H2 BIOLOGY HANDS-ON PRACTICAL CRASH COURSE
H2 PHYSICS HANDS-ON PRACTICAL CRASH COURSE
MOE/SEAB SYLLABUS FOR H2 CHEMISTRY PRACTICAL
Paper 4 (Practical) is weighted to 20% of the Higher 2 assessment.
Candidates are expected to have been exposed to a range of topics and experimental techniques such as:
- Titration, e.g. acid-base titration (using suitable indicators such as methyl orange, screened methyl orange, thymolphthalein, and thymol blue), redox titration, iodimetric titration, indirect titration, including the preparation of standard solutions. Other types of titrations may also be required.
- Gravimetric analysis, e.g. volatilization gravimetry
- Gas collection
- Thermochemistry, including thermometric titration
- Chemical kinetics, e.g. continuous and initial rate methods
- Qualitative Inorganic analysis involving an element, a compound or a mixture. Systematic analysis will not be required. Candidates should be familiar with the reactions of cations, anions, and tests of gases as detailed in the Qualitative Analysis Notes. Reactions involving ions not included in the QA notes may be tested: in such cases, candidates will not be expected to identify the ions but only to draw conclusions of a general nature. Candidates should not attempt tests, other than those specified, on substances, except when it is appropriate to test for a gas.
- Qualitative inorganic analysis requiring a knowledge of simple organic reactions e.g. test-tube reactions indicating the presence of unsaturation ( C = C), alcoholic, phenolic, carbonyl, carboxyl and amino groups, may be tested, but this would be for the testing of observation skills and drawing general conclusions only
- Simple organic synthesis and purification, including use of water bath, setting up and the use of reflux and distillation apparatus
OUR STRUCTURED PRACTICAL TRAINING SYSTEM
Based on the above syllabus, we have several structured programs for you, depending on whether you are a Beginner or a Reviser.
You are at the Beginner level if you have never done any Chemistry Practical work before, or your last Chemistry Practical session was more than 2 years ago.
You are at the Reviser level if you have completed the Beginner practicals, or you are re-taking your Chemistry Practical exam, or you are a school candidate who has completed JC1/Y5.
NEW! – 5pm – 7pm time slots on Mon and Wed for students who can only come after school. For advance booking, Whatsapp Admin at 87762711 (https://wa.link/rey2dv)
