Reactions of Acids GCSE Lesson (SC8c SC8f CC8c CC8f)

(0)
These PowerPoints will allow you to teach students the GCSE 9-1 Chemistry required content on the reactions of acids with metals, metal oxides, metal hydroxides and metal carbonates. Two full lesson PowerPoints are provided: Reactions of Acids Introduces the key rules for acid reactions and deals primarily with word equations, though there are some opportunities for balanced equation practice in the final task. Acid reactions and Balanced Equations This lesson builds upon the rules learned in lesson 1, while recalling formulae and skills learned in previous lessons, so that students learn to write balanced equations for acid reactions with minimal provided. A homework sheet (plus mark-scheme) is then included for students to practise what they learn across the two lessons. The resources are easy to follow for teachers, readily accessible for students and are appropriate for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers. Other GCSE lessons (including others from the Acids and Alkalis topic) are available from my shop. They can be purchased individually or, alongside this lesson, as part of a whole-topic bundle.
