Sharing my CIE A-level Chemistry notes [AS chapters completed]

[Allison]

Thanks soo much! Notes were really helpful

 

[Ayesha.Rauf]

Can any you PLEASE share AS level physics notes which thoroughly explains the chapter? Would be REALLY REALLY grateful to you.

Can any you PLEASE share AS level physics notes which thoroughly explains the chapter? Would be REALLY REALLY grateful to you.

Sorry I don't make any notes for physics

 

[Loodynagy]

Hello!
These notes would definitely come in handy ! Thank You!
Hope I'm not disturbing, but I wanted to ask if you perhaps have a link to the Edexcel AS Chemistry hodder publisher book..
Many thanks.

Sorry I don't make any notes for physics

You have to complete Organic.Please Please. Just 16-19 because they are tricky chapters.
Chap 14 and 15 is not a problem because it covers basic organic things.

Try to complete it before March because most of the people will be having mocks in that month

 

[Maysum]

Plz Complete AS Organic

 

[slisjunknown]

Thanks a lot....these notes are extremely helpful

Hi! I've decided to share the notes that I made for AS Chemistry so that everyone can benefit. I'm currently still working on it, I will upload more and more chapters as time goes on. So, please keep yourself updated(if you wanna!).

About the sources:
1) Well, I basically just compiled information from various sources(webs and books) and
arranged it according to CIE exam specification. Most of the texts and pictures/diagrams
came from the Internet, I do not own any of them.
2) I've referred to many sources so it's not possible for me to list them all. However, I do want
to list some major ones:
i. Chemguide: http://www.chemguide.co.uk/index.html#top
ii. Cambridge International AS/A Level Chemistry Coursebook
iii. Step-by-step A-Level Study Guide Chemistry
iv. 2015 syallabus for Cambridge International AS/A Level Chemistry 9701

I have decided to exclude most calculation examples, so you should find another source to practice the calculations, which are very essential indeed. My aim of making these notes is to provide you a REVISION source. If you are first time learning a topic, learn it from your teacher or the excellent Chemguide website(link provided above). After you have mastered the topic, read my notes to reinforce the main points.

And finally...
If you found any mistakes in my notes, do let me know. Even if it's a spelling error, I am willing to correct it.

[Dodo XD]

Thank u for the notes!
Can u please upload the organic chemistry topics a little bit faster? I have been waiting for them for about a week. Thank you

 

[chemhead]

THANKS A LOT !!!!

 

[robinhoodmustafa]

Nope not yet, perhaps I will, depends on whether I'm free to do so or not.

thankyou again!

Just 2 more chapter notes remain. please complete it by march!

A grades in progress

thnx for ur notes.... btw when will u upload the last 2 chapters for as levels??

 

[Dodo XD]

But what aboout the other 2 chapters in organic chem??? please upload them

 

[robinhoodmustafa]

Nope not yet, perhaps I will, depends on whether I'm free to do so or not.

Waiting for hydroxy and carbonyl.
Final prelims in coming weeks !

It stresses me when you say that, but at the same time I'm very happy. I'm currently working on it, stay tuned.

 

[Farhad221]

By what time do you think you will be done.

Is it possible for you to make a short revision booklet for organic chemistry ?
All the possible reaction explained in the concised form, Just for a quick revision before the exams.

 

[Jassim]

Does anyone know where to get notes for Ionic Equilibria??
