Chemistry · Grade 11 · Week 30 · 25 questions

This Grade 11 chemistry chapter on Hydrocarbons introduces Alkenes (Preparation, Properties, Markovnikov's Rule). A strong base in these ideas makes organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry much more approachable later.

What you'll practise

  • State and apply Alkenes (Preparation, Properties, Markovnikov's Rule)
  • Work through NCERT intext examples and exercise questions for hydrocarbons
  • Apply hydrocarbons concepts to NCERT exercise and exemplar problems
