1. Paper Structure and Command Words | 试卷结构与指令词
The AS Unit 1 paper usually lasts 1 hour 30 minutes and is worth 80 marks. It contains a mixture of multiple-choice, short-answer and extended-response questions. Common command words include ‘state’, ‘define’, ‘calculate’, ‘explain’, ‘suggest’ and ‘deduce’. ‘Calculate’ requires a numerical answer with units; ‘explain’ requires scientific reasons linked to the question.
AS Unit 1 试卷通常时长 1 小时 30 分钟,满分 80 分。题型包括选择题、简答题和拓展题。常见指令词有 “state(陈述)” “define(定义)” “calculate(计算)” “explain(解释)” “suggest(建议)” 和 “deduce(推断)”。 “calculate” 要求带单位的数值答案;”explain” 要求给出与题目相关的科学理由。
| Command word | 指令词 | What it means | 含义 |
|---|---|
| State | 陈述 | Give a fact or definition briefly | 简要给出事实或定义 |
| Calculate | 计算 | Work out a value, show working and units | 算出数值,展示步骤和单位 |
| Explain | 解释 | Give reasons using scientific principles | 用科学原理给出原因 |
| Suggest | 建议 | Apply knowledge to a new situation | 将知识应用于新情境 |
2. Atomic Structure and Ionisation Energy | 原子结构与电离能
Atomic structure underpins many Unit 1 questions. Atoms consist of protons and neutrons in the nucleus and electrons arranged in shells or orbitals. The atomic number Z gives the number of protons, while the mass number A gives the total number of protons plus neutrons. Isotopes have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
原子结构是许多 Unit 1 题目的基础。原子由原子核中的质子和中子以及按电子层或轨道排布的电子组成。原子序数 Z 表示质子数,质量数 A 表示质子数与中子数之和。同位素具有相同的质子数,但中子数不同。
| Particle | 粒子 | Relative charge | 相对电荷 | Relative mass | 相对质量 |
|---|---|---|
| Proton | 质子 | +1 | 1 |
| Neutron | 中子 | 0 | 1 |
| Electron | 电子 | −1 | 1/1836 |
First ionisation energy is the energy required to remove one mole of electrons from one mole of gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous 1+ ions. Successive ionisation energies increase because the remaining electrons are held more strongly by the positive nucleus. Large jumps in successive ionisation energies indicate a new shell and therefore the group of the element.
第一电离能是指从 1 摩尔气态原子中移除 1 摩尔电子,形成 1 摩尔气态 +1 离子所需的能量。逐级电离能依次增大,因为剩余电子被正电核更强地吸引。逐级电离能的大幅跳跃表明进入新的电子层,从而可推断元素所在的族。
3. Mass Spectrometry and Relative Atomic Mass | 质谱法与相对原子质量
Mass spectrometry gives relative atomic mass and relative molecular mass. In the electron impact method, an electron gun ionises atoms to form positive ions, which are accelerated, deflected by a magnetic field and detected. The m/z ratio is mass-to-charge ratio; for a 1+ ion it equals the mass of the ion.
质谱法可测定相对原子质量和相对分子质量。电子轰击法中,电子枪将原子电离形成正离子,离子被加速、在磁场中偏转并检测。m/z 比是质荷比;对于 +1 离子,它等于离子的质量。
Relative atomic mass = Σ (isotopic mass × percentage abundance) / 100
When a mass spectrum shows peaks at m/z values for each isotope, multiply each isotopic mass by its relative abundance, add the products and divide by the total abundance. A common exam task is to identify an element from its relative atomic mass and the isotope pattern.
当质谱图显示各同位素的 m/z 峰时,将每个同位素质量乘以其相对丰度,把乘积相加,再除以总丰度。常见的考题是根据相对原子质量和同位素模式推断元素。
4. Amount of Substance and Mole Calculations | 物质的量与摩尔计算
The mole is the SI unit for amount of substance. The key equation n = m / M links mass, molar mass and moles, where n is amount in mol, m is mass in g and M is molar mass in g mol⁻¹. At room temperature and pressure, the molar gas volume is usually 24.0 dm³ mol⁻¹; the ideal gas equation pV = nRT must be used when temperature and pressure are not standard.
摩尔是物质的量的 SI 单位。核心公式 n = m / M 将质量、摩尔质量和物质的量联系起来,其中 n 为物质的量(mol),m 为质量(g),M 为摩尔质量(g mol⁻¹)。常温常压下,气体摩尔体积通常为 24.0 dm³ mol⁻¹;当温度、压力非标准时,必须使用理想气体状态方程 pV = nRT。
n = m / M and pV = nRT
Always convert volume units carefully: 1 dm³ = 1000 cm³. In ideal gas calculations, pressure is usually in Pa, volume in m³, and R = 8.31 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹. Temperature must be in kelvin: T = θ + 273.
务必仔细换算体积单位:1 dm³ = 1000 cm³。在理想气体计算中,压力通常用 Pa,体积用 m³,R = 8.31 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹。温度必须用开尔文:T = θ + 273。
5. Empirical and Molecular Formulae | 经验式与分子式
Empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound. Combustion analysis data can give the masses of C, H and O, then moles, then ratio. Molecular formula is a whole-number multiple of the empirical formula, determined by comparing the relative molecular mass with the empirical formula mass.
经验式表示化合物中各原子的最简整数比。燃烧分析数据可给出 C、H、O 的质量,再换算为物质的量,然后得到原子比。分子式是经验式的整数倍,通过比较相对分子质量与经验式质量确定倍数。
For example, if a compound contains 40.0% carbon, 6.7% hydrogen and 53.3% oxygen by mass, divide each percentage by the relative atomic mass: C = 40.0/12.0 = 3.33, H = 6.7/1.0 = 6.7, O = 53.3/16.0 = 3.33. Divide by the smallest value to get C₁H₂O₁, so the empirical formula is CH₂O.
例如,某化合物含碳 40.0%、氢 6.7%、氧 53.3%,将每个百分数除以相对原子质量:C = 40.0/12.0 = 3.33,H = 6.7/1.0 = 6.7,O = 53.3/16.0 = 3.33。除以最小值得到 C₁H₂O₁,因此经验式为 CH₂O。
6. Bonding and Intermolecular Forces | 化学键与分子间作用力
Bonding questions often ask about ionic, covalent and metallic bonding. Ionic bonding involves electron transfer and electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions. Covalent bonding involves shared pairs of electrons. Metallic bonding is the attraction between positive metal ions and a sea of delocalised electrons.
键合题常涉及离子键、共价键和金属键。离子键涉及电子转移和带相反电荷离子之间的静电吸引。共价键涉及共用电子对。金属键是正金属离子与离域电子海之间的吸引力。
Intermolecular forces are weaker than covalent bonds. London dispersion forces occur between all molecules and increase with molecular size. Permanent dipole-dipole forces occur between polar molecules. Hydrogen bonding occurs when H is bonded to N, O or F, and it explains the relatively high boiling points of water, ammonia and alcohols.
分子间作用力弱于共价键。伦敦色散力存在于所有分子之间,并随分子尺寸增大而增强。永久偶极-偶极力存在于极性分子之间。氢键发生在 H 与 N、O 或 F 相连时,它解释了水、氨和醇相对较高的沸点。
7. Energetics: Calorimetry and Hess’s Law | 能量学:量热法与赫斯定律
Calorimetry questions use Q = mcΔT to find heat transferred, where Q is heat energy, m is mass of solution, c is specific heat capacity and ΔT is temperature change. The enthalpy change per mole is ΔH = −Q / n, where the negative sign appears when the temperature rises because the reaction is exothermic.
量热法题目使用 Q = mcΔT 求传递的热量,其中 Q 为热量,m 为溶液质量,c 为比热容,ΔT 为温度变化。每摩尔焓变 ΔH = −Q / n,当温度升高
