About materials and nanochemistry notes
GoConqr OriginalUsing Materials and Nanochemistry notes
For a starting point on material choices, open Properties of Materials. It introduces metals and their properties. If you are revising a narrower topic, Emulsions describes the water-loving and water-repelling parts of an emulsifier molecule. Paints and pigments includes notes on phosphorescent and thermochromic materials.
For nanoscience, Nanoscience Chemistry Study Note brings together fullerenes, carbon nanotubes and nanoparticles. Use it to identify the terms you want to revisit, then return to the relevant section as you revise.
Move between formats
Read a note in short sections and write down the terms or properties you want to remember. If you want a visual overview, switch to a mind map on the unit page. When you are ready to check what you recall, try a quiz there. Choose a note to begin your revision.
Frequently asked questions
Which note should I start with?
Start with Properties of Materials if you want to review metals and their properties. For a more focused topic, choose Emulsions or Paints and pigments. Nanoscience Chemistry Study Note is another starting point if you are looking for notes on fullerenes, carbon nanotubes and nanoparticles.
Are these notes free to use?
Yes. Every note listed here is free to open and study, without an account. A free account also lets you save quiz scores and make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes. The listed resources were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr.
