    Study Notes

    End of Year 8 Assessment: Mathematics

    Assessment Overview

    • 55 minutes allowed to complete the assessment
    • Maximum mark for the paper is 50
    • Instructions: use black ink or black ball-point pen, calculator allowed, draw diagrams in pencil, tracing paper is allowed

    Question Analysis

    • 18 questions in total, covering various topics in mathematics
    • Questions are divided into different sections, each with a specific mark allocation
    • Topics covered include equivalent ratios, solving equations, expanding single brackets, parts of a circle, percentage multipliers, and more

    Key Concepts

    • Equivalent ratios: 4:1 is equivalent to 8:2
    • Solving one-step equations: e.g., x + 7 = 9
    • Expanding single brackets: e.g., 4(2x + 3) = 8x + 12
    • Parts of a circle: radius, chord, circumference, and arc
    • Percentage multipliers: e.g., increasing 400 by 20%

    Algebraic Expressions

    • Writing expressions: e.g., Jack sent n texts, Kim sent n + 20 texts, Luke sent 2n texts
    • Solving equations: e.g., 5x = 55, 2y - 3 = 41, 8x - 9 = 6x

    Sequences and Patterns

    • Finding the nth term of a linear sequence: e.g., Sequence A: 2, 5, 8, 11, ...
    • Factorising an expression: e.g., 7x - 7
    • Solving equations involving linear sequences: e.g., 2x + 5 = 11

    Geometry and Measurement

    • Perimeter and area of compound shapes: e.g., Aidan's back garden
    • Circumference and area of a circle: e.g., radius 5 cm
    • Constructing triangles: e.g., using given angles and side lengths
    • Perimeter of a shape involving circles: e.g., a semi-circle with a small semi-circle cut out

    Ratio and Proportion

    • Equivalent ratios: e.g., 4:1 is equivalent to 8:2
    • Percentage multipliers: e.g., increasing 400 by 20%
    • Ratio problems: e.g., Emma has 400 balloons, with a quarter of them being white, and twice as many pink balloons as white balloons

    Prime Factorisation

    • Writing a number as the product of prime factors: e.g., 70 = 2 × 5 × 7
    • Finding the highest common factor (HCF) and least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers: e.g., 84 and 70

    Organic Chemistry

    Definition and Scope

    • Study of carbon-containing compounds and their properties, reactions, and synthesis
    • Involves compounds with carbon, hydrogen, and possibly oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur

    Characteristics of Organic Compounds

    • Covalent bonds between atoms
    • Found naturally or synthesized in a laboratory
    • Can have complex structures and varying properties

    Functional Groups

    • Specific groups of atoms determining chemical properties and reactivity
    • Examples: hydroxyl (-OH), carboxyl (-COOH), amino (-NH2), aldehyde (-CHO), ketone (-CO-)

    Types of Organic Compounds

    • Hydrocarbons: only carbon and hydrogen atoms
      • Saturated: single bonds (e.g. methane, CH4)
      • Unsaturated: double or triple bonds (e.g. ethene, C2H4)
    • Aliphatic compounds: open-chain hydrocarbons
    • Aromatic compounds: ring-shaped with delocalized electrons (e.g. benzene, C6H6)
    • Heterocyclic compounds: ring-shaped with elements other than carbon and hydrogen

    Isomerism

    • Existence of compounds with same molecular formula but different structures
    • Types:
      • Structural: different bond connections
      • Stereoisomerism: same bond connections, different 3D arrangements

    Reaction Mechanisms

    • Breaking and forming of covalent bonds
    • Types:
      • Substitution: replacement of functional groups
      • Elimination: removal of functional groups
      • Addition: addition of functional groups
      • Rearrangement: reorganization of atoms within a molecule

    Synthesis and Analysis

    • Synthesis: creation of compounds from simpler starting materials
    • Analysis: identification and characterization of compounds
    • Techniques:
      • Chromatography: separation and purification
      • Spectroscopy: analysis of molecular structure using electromagnetic radiation (e.g. IR, NMR)
