Providing resources for GCSE Science and A-Level Chemistry.
Chemistry
Amino acids
An A-Level Chemistry worksheet on amino acids. Contains seven sections of questions increasing in difficulty. Covers the whole topic of amino acids including IUPAC naming, zwitterions, melting point, reactions with acid, hydroxide, carbonate, halogenoalkane, acyl (acid) chloride etc. Also includes questions on peptides, hydrolysis, polypeptides and proteins. Answers are included. Is a resource which comprehensively covers the whole of the amino acid theory suitable for the new 2015 A-Level syllabuses.
Bundle
Organic chemistry knowledge organisers
A bundle of 3 knowledge organisers on the AQA GCSE topic organic chemistry and a large A3 poster of the whole content of the GCSE organic chemistry. The 1st is on crude oil and the reactions of the hydrocarbons (alkanes and alkenes), the 2nd on alcohols and carboxylic acids and the 3rd on Polymers (addition, condensation polymerisation, polysaccharides, amino acids and DNA). The Poster is a combination of all the information they need to know from the three organic chemistry topics, all on one A3 poster. Contains all the key information from the AQA new 2016 GCSE syllabus for the triple science organic chemistry topic.
Bundle
AQA GCSE Chemistry paper 1 Structure strips
A set of revision structure strips on the new AQA GCSE Chemistry syllabus for paper 1. The structure strips fit into the margins of an exercise book and students write the answer to each question in the lines beside. 190 questions covers topics Atomic structure, periodic table, structure and bonding, chemical changes, electrolysis and energy changes. Answers to every question provided.
Bundle
A-Level & GCSE Knowledge organisers
A bundle of all the knowledge organisers I’ve made for both A-Level and GCSE Chemistry. A collection of 20 in total,
Inorganic qualitative tests
A knowledge organiser on inorganic qualitiative tests including cation flame tests, tests for the magnesium and ammonium cations, the sulfate and carbonate anions, halides tests (silver nitrate, displacement and reaction with concentrated sulfuric acid.) The knowledge organiser also includes relevant ionic equations where applicable.
Paper Chromatography knowledge organiser
A Knowledge organiser on the AQA GCSE topic Paper chromatography. Contains all the information they need to know on the method, apparatus, mobile/stationary phases, calculating Rf values etc. includes examples of chromatograms. The resource is editable and can be printed out on A3 paper for the students to revise from. Suitable for the new 2018 GCSE.
Chromatography quiz
A traffic light quiz on paper chromatography, students hold up the relevant coloured card to answer the questions in the quiz. Suitable for the new 2018 Chemistry GCSE. I use it as a plenary at the end of the lesson.
Bundle
Energetics bundle
7 resources bundle on the Energetics topics Born Haber cycles, enthalpy of neutralisation, Gibbs free energy calculations, entropy of system and total entropy calculations, Hess Law and a knowledge organiser on entropy.
Formulae of ions
A KS4/5 Chemistry worksheet with a formulae grid, gives students practice on writing inorganic formula on molecules such as sodium hydroxide, sodium chloride, sodium carbonate etc. Answers included.
Hess Law
A bundle of 3 resources used to teach students how to draw Hess Law cycles. One of the resources is aimed at lower ability students showing them how to perform the calculation without having to draw the cycle.
Bundle
pH calculations bundle
A bundle of resources on calculating the pH of strong acids, weak acids and buffer solutions. Answers are included.
Transition metals - hydroxide reactions
An A-Level Chemistry resource on transition metal reactions with hydroxide ions suitable for the Edexcel Syllabus. Includes a colour chart of the hydroxide precipitates. The resource is editable.
Our evolving atmosphere
A bundle of resources on the atmosphere. A rank the definition activity encourages class discussion on how to define the atmosphere. Also included, a group relay activity where students in their groups have to answer questions on how the Earth's atmosphere has changed from the past till present. Students answer each question in turn and can only have a go at the next question once the teacher has confirmed their answer is correct. The group quickest to complete the questions are the winners. Students love these relay activities, it encourages competition and team work and typically takes 10 mins to complete.
Organic synthesis mind map
A comprehensive mind map on organic synthesis which students can use to revise the theory Students can use the resource to produce routes for organic synthesis required in A-Level Chemistry exams.
Group 2 Chemistry hexagons
A challenging activity on the A-Level chemistry topic group 2 metals. Students have to link the keywords about group 2 in the hexagons together. Helps students make connections between the reactions, ionisation energy and reactivity. It is challenging and really gets students thinking about how the chemistry connects together. Takes about 20 mins to complete and answers are included. Is an excellent activity as it really challenges students knowledge of group 2.
Electrolysis - structure strips
Structure strips for the AQA GCSE Chemistry topic “Electrolysis”. Structure strips go into the margin of an exercise book and students write in their answers beside each question. This is one of a series of structure strips that I have made for the new 2017 GCSE specification. There are 30 questions in this set and answers are included.
Chemistry of the atmosphere - structure strips
Structure strips for the AQA GCSE Chemistry topic “Chemical of the atmosphere”. Structure strips go into the margin of an exercise book and students write in their answers beside each question. This is one of a series of structure strips that I have made for the new 2016 GCSE specification. There are 25 questions within the structure strips and answers are included.
Crude oil and fuels - structure strips
Structure strips for the AQA GCSE Chemistry topic “Crude oil and fuels”. Structure strips go into the margin of an exercise book and students write in their answers beside each question. This is one of a series of structure strips that I have made for the new 2016 GCSE specification. There are 28 questions within the structure strips and answers are included.
Electrolysis quiz
A traffic lights quiz on the GCSE Chemistry topic of electrolysis. Can be used as a plenary to test students knowledge. Includes questions on electrolysis, electrolytes, anode, cathode, oxidation, reduction and ionic equations. Suitable for the new 2018 GCSE specifications. Answers are included.
Starter activity: Rank the defintion of transition metals
A Starter activity on the A-Level Chemistry topic Transition metals. Students are given several definitions of a transition metal and need to rank them in order, giving explanations why why they have done it in that order. An excellent activity that challenges their understanding on the structure of transition metals and works well as a discussion starter for the lesson.
