Chemistry — Formula Sheet

Key formulas for TS Inter 1st Year Chemistry — Atomic Structure, Gases, Stoichiometry, Thermodynamics, and Equilibrium. Based on TGBIE Annual Plan 2025-26.

Ch. 1 Atomic Structure

  • 1Bohr radius: aₙ = n²a₀/Z where a₀ = 0.529 Å
  • 2Energy of nth orbit: Eₙ = −13.6Z²/n² eV

  • 4de Broglie wavelength: λ = h/mv
  • 5Heisenberg: Δx · Δp ≥ h/(4π)
  • 6Quantum numbers: n (principal), l (azimuthal, 0 to n−1), m (magnetic, −l to +l), s (spin, ±½)

Ch. 4 States of Matter

  • 1Boyle's law: P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ (constant T, n)
