Edexcel CC10 revision of electrolysis. This has a differentiated starter to cover the main points of electrolysis. It then has graded questions for the student to work through. This works well at the end of teaching this topic or as part of exam revision.

Edexcel CC10b products from electrolysis. This presentation guides students through predicting the products of electrolysis firstly with molten ionic salts, then with aqueous ionic salts and finally it gives a few examples that are unusual eg purification of copper and electrolysis of sodium sulfate. there are 3 differentiated worksheets included with this.

Edexcel CC10a Electrolysis of Copper Sulphate. This presentation gives students some background knowledge of the procedure, steps to carry out the procedure adn then some questions to ask in the analysis of their results. There is also a slide that summarises the key pints that can be printed off, laminated and put on display.

Edexcel CC10a Electrolysis. This presentation explores the apparatus sued in electrolysis and the terminology used. It explains why solid ionic substances can not conduct electricity and then takes higher students through the skill of writing half equations and using OILRIG to work out reduction and oxidation. IT also includes 3 differentiated worksheets.

Edexcel CC5c Properties of Ionic Compounds. This presentation starts by looking at the particles and forces present in ionic compounds. It then explains why ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points and finishes by looking at why ionic compounds conduct electricity. This presentation also includes 3 differentiated worksheets and refers to the CC5c.1 practical from Edexcel looking at testing and identifying ionic compounds.

Edexcel CC5b Ionic Lattices. This starts by looking at what ionic lattices are, then moves onto how to write the names of ionic compounds and how to write their formulae using the cross over method. 2 differentiated worksheets are also included . I usually follow this lesson with a lesson on writing word and symbol equations ( see my other powerpoint)

This is a series of 10 question recall tests for use at the start or end of a lesson. This presentation includes quizzes on states of matter and mixtures. At the end of each quiz is a slide with just the questions on so that they can be printed off and handed out to students as a starter whilst you do the register. The presentation then goes through each questions with the answer so that students can self assess. Alternatively it can be done as a plenary and you can rapid fire targeted questions just using the presentation.

This is a series of 10 question recall tests for use at the start or end of a lesson. This presentation includes quizzes on filtration and crystallisation, distillation, chromatography and drinking water. At the end of each quiz is a slide with just the questions on so that they can be printed off and handed out to students as a starter whilst you do the register. The presentation then goes through each questions with the answer so that students can self assess. Alternatively it can be done as a plenary and you can rapid fire targeted questions just using the presentation.

Edexcel CC5a Ionic Bonds. This presentation usually takes about 3 or 4 lessons depending upon how quickly the students grasp the concept. It is worth spending time ensuring full comprehension as this is one of the fundamentals in chemistry. It starts by looking at how ions form, then moves onto drawing ions and ionic bonding diagrams ( dot and cross diagrams) Finally it ends by looking at charges on ions and how they link to the position in the Periodic Table. 3 differentiated worksheets are also included with this bundle.

A stand alone resource that I have used for revision of ionic bonding. It guides students how to write the name of ionic compounds, how to draw ionic bonding diagrams and how to write the formulae of ionic compounds. There are 3 opportunities in the presentation for students to practice what has been taught so that any misconceptions can be addressed immediately.

Edexcel CC8d Core Practical - Investigating Neutralisation. This powerpoint leads the students through the setting of the task, the method and hazards and risks associated with th practical. It ends with some questions commonly asked about the practical and the final slide is one I print off and laminate ande ither display around the classroom or allow students to use during the lesson.

Edexcel CC8g Solubility. This powerpoint starts with a demo of lead nitrate and potassium iodide reacting together to give a bright yellow precipitate. I try and and make this a bit of a magic show! This then leads on to looking at the solubility rules and deciding which salts are soluble or not. After some practice of finding the precipitate, the students are then shown how to make an insoluble salt. The lesson finishes with an exit ticket which could be handed in so that the teacher can find out what students are still unsure of.

Edexcel CC8f Reactions of acids with metals and carbonates. This powerpoint starts by looking at the tests for hydrogen and carbon dioxide. It then looks at how metals react with acids and how metal carbonates react with acids discussing what products are formed in each case. It then guides the students slowly through writing ionic equations step by step, mentioning spectator ions and half equations.

A powerpoint to help students through the CC8c Core practical - Preparing Copper sulfate crystals. This includes setting the task, a method for students to follow and relevant questions to ask following the practical. The last slide is one I print off and laminate as an aid for students to keep or it could go on a display of core practical in the lab.

Edexcel Combined Science CC8eAlkalis and neutralisation. This powerpoint starts with a quick recap of previous lessons, followed by looking at neutralisation and what happens to the ions involved. Neutralisation in action is discussed and then students are guided through how to make a pure, dry soluble salt from alkalis using titrations. The plenary can be printed off and laminated to make a card sort if desired.

Edexcel Combined Science CC8b Looking at acids - higher students. This powerpoint starts with practice at converting between cm3 and dm3 and vice versa. (Maths skills - converting units) It looks at the difference between strong and weak acids and concentrated and dilute acids. It also discusses the ions in solution and how they relate to pH. (Maths skill - factors)

Edexcel Combined Science CC8d Alkalis and balancing equations.This powerpoint starts off with looking at some common alkalis and how to name salts formed from alkalis reacting with acids. It then guides the student through how to write word and balanced symbol equations in easy to follow steps with plenty of examples to practice.
