Practical course certificate note
For practical, lab, and experiment courses, Eclat Institute may issue an internal Certificate of Completion/Attendance based on participation and internal assessment.
- This is an internal centre-issued certificate, not an MOE/SEAB qualification or accreditation.
- Recognition (if any) is determined by the receiving school, institution, or employer.
- For SEAB private candidates taking science practical papers, SEAB states you should either have taken the subject before or complete a practical course before the practical exam date.

Q: What does IP Chemistry (Y3-Y4) Bridge to H2 Chemistry (9476, Exams from 2026) cover?
A: Structured roadmap for IP Year 3-4 students who want a seamless jump into H2 Chemistry (Syllabus 9476, exams from 2026).
TL;DR
Nail thermochemistry sign conventions, kinetics data analysis, and volumetric precision before Sec 4 ends. Use SEAB’s H2 Chemistry syllabus (9476) and the Chemistry Data Booklet to align your IP coursework with H2 practical and theory demands.
When you’re ready to preview the JC syllabus, cross-reference every module with our H2 Chemistry notes hub so the bridge feeds directly into the 9476 topic sequence.
Status: SEAB H2 Chemistry 9476 syllabus (exams from 2026) checked 2026-01-26 - Paper 4 is 2 h 30 min, 50 marks with Planning 4% + MMO/PDO/ACE 16% (20% overall), and PDO/ACE may include data-analysis questions without apparatus.
1 Why IP Chemistry Needs a Bridge
- Syllabus demands: H2 Chemistry 9476 emphasises energetics, reaction kinetics, and analytical techniques, so IP coverage needs to line up with the A-Level sequence. (SEAB 9476 syllabus)
- Paper 4 weighting: SEAB specifies Paper 4 as a 2 h 30 min, 50-mark paper that assesses Planning (4%) plus MMO/PDO/ACE skills (16%), totalling 20% of the grade, and PDO/ACE may include data-analysis questions without apparatus. Align Sec 3-4 labs to those assessment objectives early.
- Data handling expectations: Paper 4 explicitly covers presentation and analysis of data, so spreadsheet/graphing fluency should be practised alongside bench skills.
2 Diagnose the Content Gaps
2.1 Thermochemistry & energetics
- Revisit Hess' Law with algebraic sign management and state function reasoning.
- Practise calorimetry calculations that incorporate heat loss corrections and specific heat capacity tables.
- Cross-check enthalpy sign conventions using SEAB's Chemistry Data Booklet (values in
