Chemistry 11 & 12 · Physics 11 & 12

Science,
sculpted in glass.

Eight ideas from the course, built in 3D and sealed in glass. Scroll to walk past them; drag sideways to turn each one.

Chemistry 11 · Bonding

A crystal of
table salt.

Sodium and chloride ions lock into a perfect cube. Every ion is held by six neighbours of the opposite charge.

Bonding & nomenclature

Chemistry 11 · The mole

Twelve grams
of carbon.

The diamond lattice: each carbon bonded to four others. Twelve grams holds 6.02 × 10²³ of them, one mole.

The mole & stoichiometry

Chemistry 12 · Equilibrium

Busy, but
balanced.

Particles keep crossing both ways. At equilibrium the two rates match, so the amounts stop changing.

Le Chatelier's principle

Chemistry 12 · Redox

Electrons
on the move.

Zinc gives up electrons, copper takes them. Run them through a wire and you've built a battery.

Electrochemical cells

Physics 11 · Forces

Every push,
drawn in.

Applied force, friction, normal force and gravity on one cart. Add them up and Newton tells you what happens next.

Forces & Newton's laws

Physics 12 · Circular motion

Always pulled
to the centre.

A ball on a string never stops turning. The pull points inward; the velocity always points along the circle.

Circular motion

Physics 12 · Circuits

Close the loop,
light the bulb.

Charge flows the moment the circuit is complete. V = IR tells you how much.

Circuits

Physics 12 · Induction

Move a magnet,
make a current.

Push the magnet into the coil and the meter kicks. Pull it out and it kicks the other way.
