Preface
written by editor-in-chief, Nguyen Tien Thao (Hanoi)
(a shortened version)
These problems were prepared with reliance on fundamental topics firmly covered in
high school chemistry courses along with some advanced topics for the chemistry
olympiad competition. These topics are listed under “Topics of Advanced Difficulty”, and
their applications are given in the problems.
We hope that these problems will be motivating for students to participate in the IChO-
2014 competition. We believe that IChO-2014 will not only be a chemistry competition, but
also a pleasant time for you to know about Vietnamese culture.
We look forward to seeing you in Hanoi and at Hanoi University of Science, Vietnam
National University in Hanoi.
