1. Atomic Structure | 原子结构

Atoms consist of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, with electrons arranged in shells around the nucleus. Protons have a relative mass of 1 and charge of +1, neutrons have a relative mass of 1 and charge 0, while electrons have a relative mass of 1/1840 and charge -1.

原子由含质子和中子的原子核以及核外分层排布的电子组成。质子相对质量约为 1、带 1 个正电荷,中子相对质量为 1、不带电,电子相对质量约为 1/1840、带 1 个负电荷。

The atomic number (Z) is the number of protons, defining the element. The mass number (A) is the total number of protons and neutrons. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons and hence different mass numbers. Chemical properties of isotopes are virtually identical due to the same electron configuration.

原子序数(Z)为质子数,决定了元素的种类。质量数(A)是质子数与中子数之和。同位素指质子数相同而中子数不同的原子,因此质量数不同;由于电子构型相同,其化学性质几乎完全一致。

Electrons fill orbitals following the Aufbau principle, filling lower energy sub-levels first: 1s, then 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, etc. The maximum number of electrons in an s sub-shell is 2, in a p sub-shell is 6, and in a d sub-shell is 10. Hund's rule states that electrons occupy degenerate orbitals singly before pairing.

电子按构造原理填充轨道,优先占据低能级:1s、2s、2p、3s、3p、4s、3d 等。s 亚层最多容纳 2 个电子,p 亚层最多 6 个,d 亚层最多 10 个。洪特规则指出,电子在简并轨道上先以自旋平行方式单独占位,再配对。

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. Ionisation energy generally increases across a period due to increasing nuclear charge, and decreases down a group due to increased shielding and atomic radius.

第一电离能指从 1 摩尔气态原子中移去 1 摩尔电子形成 1 摩尔气态 1+ 离子所需的能量。同一周期从左到右电离能总体增大,因为核电荷增强;同一族从上到下电离能减小,因为屏蔽效应增大、原子半径增加。


2. Chemical Bonding and Structure | 化学键与结构

Ionic bonding occurs between metals and non-metals via electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions. Ionic compounds form giant ionic lattices, are hard, brittle, have high melting points, and conduct electricity when molten or dissolved in water because ions become mobile.

金属与非金属之间通过正负离子的静电引力形成离子键。离子化合物构成巨型离子晶格,硬度高但脆,熔沸点高,在熔融或溶于水时因离子可自由移动而导电。

Covalent bonding involves sharing of electron pairs between non-metal atoms. A single covalent bond is one shared pair, a double bond two pairs, and a triple bond three pairs. Co-ordinate (dative) bonds form when both electrons in the shared pair come from the same atom.

非金属原子间通过共用电子对形成共价键。单键共用一对电子,双键共用两对,三键共用三对。配位键(给予键)指共享电子对完全由其中一个原子提供。

Molecules and ions adopt specific shapes predicted by VSEPR theory, which states that electron pairs around a central atom repel each other and arrange themselves to minimise repulsion. For example, CH₄ has a tetrahedral shape with bond angles of 109.5°, NH₃ is pyramidal (107°), and H₂O is bent (104.5°).

VSEPR 理论(价层电子对互斥理论)指出中心原子周围的电子对相互排斥,采取使斥力最小的排列方式,从而决定了分子或离子的空间构型。例如 CH₄ 为正四面体形,键角 109.5°;NH₃ 为三角锥形,键角 107°;H₂O 为角形,键角 104.5°。

Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract the bonding electrons in a covalent bond. A difference in electronegativity produces polar bonds and polar molecules if the bond dipole moments do not cancel. Intermolecular forces include London dispersion forces, permanent dipole–dipole interactions, and hydrogen bonding (when H is bonded to N, O, or F). These forces influence melting and boiling points.

电负性是原子在共价键中吸引成键电子对的能力。电负性差异导致极性键,若分子中键矩不抵消则形成极性分子。分子间作用力包括伦敦色散力、永久偶极-偶极作用和氢键(H 与 N、O、F 相连时)。这些作用力影响物质的熔沸点。


3. Stoichiometry and the Mole Concept | 化学计量与摩尔概念

amount of substance; one mole contains exactly 6.022 × 10²³ elementary entities (Avogadro' substance (g mol⁻¹). The number of moles n can be calculated using n = mass / molar mass.

摩尔是物质的量的国际单位,1 摩尔含 6.022 × 10²³ 个基本单元(阿伏伽德罗常数)。摩尔质量(M)是 1 摩尔物质的质量(g mol⁻¹)。物质的量 n = 质量 / 摩尔质量。

coefficients in the equation. At room temperature and pressure (rtp), one mole of any gas occupies approximately 24.0 dm³ (molar gas volume). Concentration (c) in mol dm⁻³ is given by c = n / V.

化学计量计算根据配平的化学方程式建立反应物与产物间的量的关系,摩尔比率直接来自方程式的系数。在室温和常压下,1 摩尔任何气体体积约为 24.0 dm³(气体摩尔体积)。浓度(c,单位 mol dm⁻³)用 c = n / V 计算。

es the actual number of atoms. Percentage yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) × 100%. Atom economy = (mass of desired product / total mass of reactants) × 100%, and it is important in sustainable chemistry.

实验式表示化合物中各原子最简整数比,分子式表示实际原子数目。产率(百分产率)= (实际产量 / 理论产量)× 100%。原子经济性 =(目标产物质量 / 各反应物总质量)× 100%,它在绿色化学中尤为重要。


4. Energetics | 能学

Enthalpy change (ΔH) is the heat energy transferred in a reaction at constant pressure. Exothermic reactions release heat (ΔH negative), and endothermic reactions absorb heat (ΔH positive). Standard enthalpy changes (e.g. ΔH°f , ΔH°c ) are measured under standard conditions: 100 kPa and a specified temperature, usually 298 K.

焓变(ΔH)是恒压条件下反应中传递的热量。放热反应放出热量(ΔH 为负),吸热反应吸收热量(ΔH 为正)。标准焓变(如标准生成焓 ΔH°f、标准燃烧焓 ΔH°c)在标准状态下测定:100 kPa、温度通常为 298 K。

Hess's Law states that the total enthalpy change for a reaction is independent of the route taken, provided the initial and final conditions are the same. This allows ΔH to be calculated using enthalpy changes of formation or combustion, or via an enthalpy cycle.

盖斯定律指出,只要始态与终态相同,反应的焓变总值与途径无关。可利用生成焓或燃烧焓的数据,或通过构建焓循环来计算目标反应的 ΔH。

ecules, averaged over different compounds for mean bond enthalpy. ΔH ≈ sum of bonds broken – periments measure temperature change to calculate heat transferred (q = mcΔT) and then ΔH.

键焓指在气态分子中断裂 1 摩尔某化学键所需的能量,平均键焓是对多种化合物取平均值。反应焓变约等于断裂键的总焓减去形成键的总焓。量热实验通过测量温度变化,利用 q = mcΔT 计算热量,进而求得 ΔH。


5. Reaction Kinetics | 反应动力学

The rate of a chemical reaction is defined as the change in concentration of a reactant or product per unit time. According to collision theory, particles must collide with sufficient energy (greater than or equal to the activation energy, Eₐ) and with correct orientation for a reaction to occur.

化学反应速率定义为单位时间内反应物或产物浓度的变化。碰撞理论指出,粒子必须发生有效碰撞,即碰撞能量达到或超过活化能(Eₐ)且取向合适,反应才能发生。

st. Increasing concentration or pressure increases the frequency of collisions. Raising temperature increases both collision frequency and, more importantly, the proportion of particles with energy ≥ Eₐ, as shown by the Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution.

影响反应速率的因素包括浓度(或气体压强)、温度、固体表面积以及催化剂。增加浓度或压强可提高碰撞频率;升高温度不仅提高碰撞频率,更重要的是使能量超过 Eₐ 的分子比例增大,这一点可通过麦克斯韦-玻尔兹曼分布说明。

A catalyst provides an alternative reaction pathway with lower activation energy, thereby increasing the rate without being chemically consumed. Enzymes are biological catalysts. Economic benefits of catalysts include lower energy costs and higher product yields within shorter times.

催化剂通过提供活化能更低的反应途径来加快反应速率,自身在反应前后化学性质不变。酶是生物催化剂。催化剂带来的经济效益包括降低能耗、在更短时间内获得更高的产率。

6. Chemical Equilibria | 化学平衡

Reversible reactions reach a dynamic equilibrium where the forward and reverse rates become equal and the concentrations of reactants and products remain constant. The equilibrium constant Kc is expressed as [products]ⁿ / [reactants]ᵐ, using equilibrium concentrations raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients. Kc is temperature dependent: for an endothermic reaction, Kc increases with temperature; for an exothermic reaction, it decreases.

可逆反应达到动态平衡时,正逆反应速率相等,各组分浓度保持不变。平衡常数 Kc 等于产物浓度幂的乘积比上反应物浓度幂的乘积,幂指数为化学方程式的系数。Kc 受温度影响:吸热反应升温 Kc 增大,放热反应升温 Kc 减小。

Le Chatelier's principle states that if a system at equilibrium is subjected to a change in concentration, pressure, or temperature, the equilibrium position shifts to counteract that change. Increasing a reactant's concentration shifts equilibrium to the right; decreasing pressure shifts equilibrium towards the side with more gas moles. Catalysts have no effect on the equilibrium position; they only speed up the approach to equilibrium.

勒夏特列原理指出,若改变平衡体系的浓度、压强或温度,平衡将向减弱这种改变的方向移动。增大反应物浓度,平衡右移;减小压强,平衡向气体摩尔数增多的方向移动。催化剂不影响平衡位置,仅加快到达平衡的速率。


7. Acid–Base Equilibria | 酸碱平衡

Brønsted–Lowry theory defines an acid as a proton (H⁺) donor and a base as a proton acceptor. In aqueous solution, an acid–base reaction involves transfer of a proton from the acid to the base, producing a conjugate base and a conjugate acid. Water itself can act as both an acid and a base (amphoteric).

Brønsted–Lowry 理论中,酸是质子(H⁺)给予体,碱是质子接受体。在水溶液中,酸碱反应是质子从酸转移到碱的过程,生成共轭碱和共轭酸。水既可作酸也可作碱,属于两性物质。

. Weak acids (e.g. CH₃COOH) partially dissociate, resulting in a dynamic equilibrium. pH = –log₁₀[H⁺]; a low pH indicates high acidity. At 298 K, the ionic product of water Kw = [H⁺][OH⁻] = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁴ mol² dm⁻⁶.

强酸(如 HCl、HNO₃、H₂SO₄)在水中完全解离,[H⁺] 等于酸的初始浓度。弱酸(如 CH₃COOH)部分解离,存在解离平衡。pH = –log₁₀[H⁺],pH 越低酸性越强。298 K 时水的离子积 Kw = [H⁺][OH⁻] = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁴ mol² dm⁻⁶。

nals the end point, which is controlled by choosing an indicator whose pH range matches the rapid pH change near the equivalence point. The titre volumes allow calculation of unknown concentration using c₁V₁/n₁ = c₂V₂/n₂.

滴定通过酸碱中和反应测定酸或碱的浓度。指示剂如酚酞或甲基橙用于指示终点,应选择变色范围与滴定突跃相符的指示剂。根据滴定体积,利用 c₁V₁/n₁ = c₂V₂/n₂ 可计算出未知溶液的浓度。


8. Redox Reactions | 氧化还原反应

Oxidation originally referred to gain of oxygen and reduction to loss of oxygen. In terms of electrons, oxidation is loss of electrons and reduction is gain of electrons (OIL RIG). A more general modern definition uses oxidation numbers: oxidation is an increase in oxidation number, reduction is a decrease.

氧化最初指加氧反应,还原指失氧反应。从电子得失角度,氧化是失电子,还原是得电子。更通用的现代定义基于氧化数:氧化数升高为氧化,降低为还原。

Oxidation numbers are assigned to atoms in a compound or ion according to rules: free elements have an oxidation number of 0; for simple ions it equals the charge; in compounds, hydrogen is usually +1, oxygen is -2 (except in peroxides), and the sum of oxidation numbers equals the overall charge. Redox reactions involve simultaneous oxidation and reduction; the reducing agent is itself oxidised, and the oxidising agent is reduced.

氧化数依照规则分配给化合物或离子中的原子:游离态元素为 0;简单离子等于其电荷数;化合物中氢通常为 +1,氧通常为 -2(过氧化物除外),各原子氧化数代数和等于体系总电荷。氧化还原反应中氧化与还原同时发生,还原剂本身被氧化,氧化剂本身被还原。

Half-equations separate the oxidation and reduction processes. They are balanced by mass and charge, adding electrons, H⁺ ions (in acidic solution) or OH⁻ ions (in alkaline solution), and H₂O as needed to balance atoms. Combining half-equations yields the full redox equation.

半反应式分别表示氧化过程和还原过程。配平时先质量守恒,再电荷守恒,酸性介质中加水、H⁺ 和电子,碱性介质中加水、OH⁻ 和电子。两个半反应式合并即得完整的氧化还原方程式。


9. Introduction to Organic Chemistry | 有机化学入门

Organic chemistry focuses on compounds containing carbon. A homologous series is a family of organic compounds with the same functional group, each successive member differing by a –CH₂– unit. They share similar chemical properties and show gradual trends in physical properties such as boiling points.

有机化学研究含碳化合物。同系物是一类官能团相同、分子组成相差一个 –CH₂– 单元的有机物系列,化学性质相似,物理性质(如沸点)呈现规律性的渐变。

e/triple bonds, and naming substituents as prefixes. Key functional groups covered include alkanes (C–C single bonds), alkenes (C=C), alcohols (–OH), aldehydes (–CHO), ketones (C=O), carboxylic acids (–COOH), and haloalkanes (R–X).

IUPAC 命名法首先选取最长碳链为主链,从离官能团或重键最近的一端开始编号,并将取代基作为前缀写出。AS 阶段需掌握的官能团包括烷烃(C–C 单键)、烯烃(C=C)、醇(–OH)、醛(–CHO)、酮(C=O)、羧酸(–COOH)和卤代烃(R–X)。

hain, position, and functional group isomers. Stereoisomerism in alkenes gives rise to cis– d the C=C double bond and two different groups attached to each carbon of the double bond.

同分异构体中,结构异构指分子式相同而结构式不同的现象,包括碳链异构、位置异构和官能团异构。烯烃因碳碳双键不能自由旋转以及每个双键碳上连有两个不同基团,可产生顺反(E/Z)立体异构。

Key reactions include: combustion of alkanes and alkenes; free-radical substitution of alkanes with halogens (initiation, propagation, termination); electrophilic addition of alkenes with H₂, HX, halogens, and steam; oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes and then carboxylic acids; and acid–base reactions of carboxylic acids. Reaction conditions, reagents, and mechanisms are assessed regularly.

主要反应包括:烷烃和烯烃的燃烧;烷烃与卤素在光照下的自由基取代(引发、传递、终止);烯烃与 H₂、HX、卤素、水蒸气等发生亲电加成;伯醇先被氧化成醛再氧化成羧酸;以及羧酸的酸碱反应。考试中常考察反应条件、试剂及机理。


10. Analytical Techniques | 分析技术

Mass spectrometry (MS) determines relative atomic and molecular masses by ionising sample particles and separating ions according to their mass-to-charge ratio (m/z). The molecular ion peak (M⁺) indicates the relative molecular mass, while fragmentation patterns provide structural information. High-resolution mass spectrometry can distinguish between compounds with the same nominal mass but different exact molecular masses, confirming molecular formula.

质谱(MS)通过将样品粒子离子化并按质荷比(m/z)分离离子,测定相对原子质量和相对分子质量。分子离子峰(M⁺)指示相对分子质量,碎片离子峰提供结构信息。高分辨率质谱可区分名义质量相同但精确质量不同的化合物,从而确定分子式。

ncies, and the spectrum shows absorption bands expressed as wavenumbers (cm⁻¹). For example, O–H in alcohols gives a broad peak around 3200–3550 cm⁻¹, C=O in carbonyl compounds absorbs strongly around 1680–1750 cm⁻¹, and the fingerprint region below 1500 cm⁻¹ is unique to each compound.

红外光谱(IR)通过官能团对红外光的特征吸收进行鉴定。共价键的振动对应特定频率,谱图以波数(cm⁻¹)显示吸收带。例如醇的 O–H 在 3200–3550 cm⁻¹ 呈宽峰,羰基化合物中的 C=O 在 1680–1750 cm⁻¹ 强吸收,1500 cm⁻¹ 以下的指纹区对每种化合物独一无二。

Chromatography, including paper, thin-layer (TLC), and gas–liquid chromatography (GLC), separates components of a mixture based on relative affinity to a stationary phase and a mobile phase. Rf values from TLC or retention times from GLC assist in identification. Integration of peaks in GLC can indicate relative amounts.

色谱技术包括纸色谱、薄层色谱(TLC)和气液色谱(GLC),利用组分在固定相与流动相之间分配系数的差异实现分离。TLC 的 Rf 值或 GLC 的保留时间有助于物质鉴别;GLC 中峰面积积分可反映相对含量。
