Interactions Between Chemical Species
Learning Time: 5-15 hours
Content: Interactions between chemical species is a subject that examines the bonding mechanisms and attractive forces between atoms and molecules. This area covers ionic bonding, covalent bonding, metallic bonding, hydrogen bonding, van der Waals forces, bond energy, and molecular polarity. The TYT focuses on basic bond types, while the AYT focuses on molecular structures and bond angle analysis. The current 2025 curriculum also covers biochemical bonding and materials science applications. Learning this topic is vital for understanding the fundamentals of chemical reactions.
