- State that matter is made up of particles, between which there is nothing but empty space.
- Define an element as a substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances.
- State that compounds are made when atoms of different elements combine.
- Explain the difference between an oxygen atom and an oxygen molecule.
- Use chemical symbols correctly.
- Recall the mass, charge and location of electrons, protons and neutrons.
- Describe Rutherford’s model of the atom.
- Define the terms isotope, atomic number, mass number and ion.
- State the number of protons, neutrons and electrons in a given particle given its charge, atomic number and mass number.
- Write electron configurations for given atoms and ions from the first 20 elements of the periodic table.
- Name covalent and ionic compounds given their formulae, and write formulae for given compounds. (A table of ions will NOT be provided in exams.)

(See Chapter 2) - Recall the structure of the modern periodic table.
- Relate the similar chemical properties of a group of elements within the periodic table to their similar electron arrangements.
- Predict the electron arrangement of an element from its position in the periodic table and vice versa.
(See Chapter 3) - Recall general equations for common reactions.
- Recall the names and formulae of common laboratory reagents.
- Write balanced formula equations.
- For a given equation, state the number of each species present as reactant or product.
