21. Electrons revolve around the atom while Proton and Neutron are inside the Nucleus of the Atom.

22. Radioactivity is the spontaneous disintegration of the nuclei of an atom to emit energy and radiations such as ALPHA PARTICLES, BETA PARTICLES AND GAMMA RAYS.

23. Alpha particles have the least penetrating power. Beta particles can be stopped by Aluminium foil while Gamma rays can only be stopped by LEAD BLOCK.

24. The ability of CARBON to form long chains, branched chains and ring is called catenation.

25. Elements that can combine with carbon to give compounds are:

• Hydrogen
• Oxygen
• Chlorine
• Nitrogen
• Bromine
• Phosphorus

26. Aliphatic Hydrocarbons could be Cyclic, Acyclic or Alicyclic.

27. Pure substances have definite boiling point and melting point.

28. Example of radioactive material are Uranium, Thorium and Polonium.

29. The most notable scientist who contributed to the development of  Periodic table between 1817 ti 1895 was Dmitri T. Mendeleev

30. The fourth and fifth period contains 18 elements each.

.

31. Elements in the same group are called CONGENERS.

32. Free Hydrogen (H2) is the lightest gas known.

33. Viscosity is the resistance to flow in liquids.

34. Water starts boiling when the saturated vapour pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure.

35. Factors affecting boiling points of organic compounds are branching, volatility, polarity and impurity.

36. The most reactive nonmetal known is fluorine.

37. Impurity increases boiling point but reduces melting point.

38. Ernest Rutherford is the father of nuclear science.

39. Radioactivity can also be called transmutation.

40. NUCLEAR ENERGY is produced by Nuclear fission and Nuclear fusion.

41. Energy from the Sun is as a result of Nuclear fusion but reaches the earth via Radiation (Correction Credit: Saheed Soneye).

42. The two types of radioactivity are natural radioactivity and artificial radioactivity.

43. Every nucleus is positive.

44. For solid which sublime, sublimation can be used to isolate the solid from its impurities if the impurities themselves do not sublime.

45. CRAO.. Reduction takes place in cathode and oxidation occurs in the anode.

46. Compound that rotates plane polarised light is said to be optically active.

47. Cathode ray tube was the forerunner of of today’s television tube.

48. R.A Millikan found the charge of an electron to be -1.60×10-19C

49. Antoine Becquerel discovered Radioactivity while Marie Curie suggested the name “Radioactivity”.

50. Each Hydrogen spectrum produces six series and each series produces lines while each line has specific wavelength.

FAQs;

What Are The Frequently Asked Questions In JAMB From The Previous Years?

You actually can’t do without asking about the frequently asked questions from JAMB Chemistry from the previous years but no worries! Below are the compiled frequently asked questions in JAMB chemistry from the previous years:

Jamb exam board are known to ask questions on radioactive material. But example of radioactive material are:

• Uranium,
• Thorium
• Polonium.

Viscosity: this means internal friction in fluid

When you Dissolves Calcium in water you get CaO.

Read more about the invention of Cathode ray tube whose idea was what gave birth to what we know as television.

Oxy-acetylene flame is mostly used in welding or joining two metals

Find out more information about R.A Millikan he stated that charge of an electron to be –1.60×10-19C(I have seen this question like 15 times in past jamb chemistry questions)

What Are The Questions That Might Be Asked In The JAMB Chemistry For 2024/2025?

Note the form in which Aliphatic Hydrocarbons can exist.. Let me help you here they are:

• Cyclic,
• Acyclic
• or Alicyclic.

1. Dmitri T. Mendeleev:study how he contributed to the development of the periodic table
2. CONGENERS: please understand what this term means and examples ( element in the same group)
3. JAM might ask you “what is the lightest gas?” Just have it in mind that it is Free Hydrogen (H2)
4. Understand the concept on how water boil (saturated vapor presure = atmospheric pressure)
5. List factors affecting the boiling point ( study this point very well) let me help you to list them

• volatility,
• polarity
• impurity.

Always understand that nuclear energy comes from nuclear fusion

What jamb sets in 2023/2024 chemistry

1. And also understand that the sun energy is as a result of nuclear fusion
2. Another name for transmutation is still the same as Radioactivity
3. Understand that Florin is one of the most reactive non metal
4. Always have it in mind that nucleus is positive
5. Study about natural and artificial radioactive.
6. Do you know that zero is the lowest oxidation state of Iron? Please have this at the back of your mind
7. Read about the history of radioactive and who suggested the name (Marie Curie) and who discovered it (Antoine Becquerel)
8. Please understand that Quantum Numbers don’t point to atoms but ELECTRONS… (JAMB Always use this question to confuse candidates yearly)

The Key Points In Chemistry For JAMB 2024 is only provided for you as a guidance of where JAMB may actually bring questions from foor the JAMB 2024 Chemistry examination. After reading them above, i hope your urge has been answered succesfully. kindly shsare this article to friends and family now.
