Know this first

Chemistry questions first identify the substances and conditions, then use conservation of atoms, charge and amount.

Species · The atom, ion or molecule being consideredCondition · A factor that controls a reaction or property

Find the tested idea

Write the substance, particle or reaction condition before selecting a formula, mechanism or periodic trend.

Build the solution

Keep atoms, charge and amount balanced. Use a mole ratio, equilibrium relation, mechanism or trend only after identifying what the stem preserves.

Verify before choosing

Return to the exact wording and check that the result satisfies every stated condition, unit and definition.

OlympIQ exam lens

  • ✓Identify the species and condition.
  • ✓Write the governing relation or mechanism.
  • ✓Check balance, charge and limiting case.
OlympIQ trap

A familiar reaction or formula can be wrong when its conditions, coefficients, charge balance or limiting reagent differ.
