Kerala SSLC Chemistry: Equations, Reactions & Chapter Guide
Published by Xello Academic Council | 8 min read | Updated 2026
Chemistry in the Kerala SSLC syllabus requires clear conceptual clarity in chemical bonding, periodic trends, metallurgy, and organic carbon compounds.
1. Periodic Table & Electronic Configuration
Understand Bohr's model, shell capacity (2n²), subshells (s, p, d, f), and periodic trends across periods and groups (atomic radius, ionization energy, electronegativity).
2. Gas Laws & Mole Concept
Master Boyle's Law, Charles's Law, and Avogadro's Law. Practice calculations involving molar mass, volume at STP (22.4 L), and Avogadro number (6.022 × 10²³).
3. Metallurgy & Industrial Chemistry
Understand concentration of ores, extraction of Iron in the blast furnace, and manufacturing of Sulphuric Acid (Contact Process) and Ammonia (Haber Process).
4. Nomenclature of Organic Compounds
Learn IUPAC naming rules for alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, carboxylic acids, and esters. Practice structural formulas and isomerism.
5. Chemical Reactions and Balancing
Practice balancing chemical equations for redox reactions, displacement, and neutralization reactions.
