Transition metals - spider diagrams
polarity24polarity24

Transition metals - spider diagrams

(0)
An A-Level Chemistry resource illustrating the reactions of the transition metals as spider diagrams (with ligands like hydroxide ions, ammonia, chloride ions etc). The first resource is spider diagrams which students have to fill in (in word format and prints out automatically in A3 from your computer). To accompany the feedback of answers, an animated Power Point is also included allowing the teacher to go through the answers in more depth, with each answer fading into view on a mouse click. Includes reactions of Copper(II), Chromium(III), Iron(II) and (III) and cobalt(II). The resource is editable and answers are included to every spider diagram in Power Point format.
Organic chemistry reactions and conditions

Organic chemistry reactions and conditions

(0)
An A-Level Chemistry resource on the reactions of alkanes, alkenes, alcohols and halogenoalkanes. Students have to complete the tables using their knowledge of reactions, conditions and reaction type. Suitable for the new 2015 A-Level Chemistry syllabuses. Answers are included.
Mass spectra fragmentation table
polarity24polarity24

Mass spectra fragmentation table

(0)
A Mass Spectra fragmentation table illustrating both the radicals lost and the ion responsible for the m/z values given. Helps students analyse a mass spectra.
Oxidation of alcohols
polarity24polarity24

Oxidation of alcohols

(0)
Two knowledge organisers on the A-level chemistry practical “oxidation of alcohols" including the oxidation of ethanol to ethanoic acid and the oxidation of butan-2-ol to butanone. The oxidation of alcohols is one of the** required practicals for A-Level Chemistry**. The knowledge organisers include the method, apparatus diagram and theory that goes with the practical. It then includes information on each stage of the process, reflux, distillation, washing, drying and redistillation. I use it in my lessons to go through the procedure in greater depth and then students refer to this when practising questions.
Oxidation and reduction knowledge organiser
polarity24polarity24

Oxidation and reduction knowledge organiser

(0)
An A-Level Chemistry knowledge organiser on oxidation and reduction. Includes information on assigning oxidation number rules, oxidation and reduction, oxidising and reducing agents, disproportionation, writing half equations (in both acidic and alkaline conditions) and combining half equations to write a full ionic equation. Suitable for all exam boards.
Kinetics knowledge organiser
polarity24polarity24

Kinetics knowledge organiser

(0)
An A-Level Chemistry knowledge organiser about Kinetics. Contains information on rates of reaction (factors that affect the rate, experimental methods, explanations of why these factor affects the rate etc.) Also contains informaiton on Maxwell Boltzmann distributions and how they are used to explain the effect of temperature and a catalyst.
Transition metal complex colours
polarity24polarity24

Transition metal complex colours

(1)
A resource for the AQA A-Level Chemistry syllabus on colours of transition metals. Students cut and stick the transition metal complexes and match them up to their colours.
Amino acids knowledge organiser
polarity24polarity24

Amino acids knowledge organiser

(0)
An A-Level Chemistry knowledge organiser on amino acids. content covers structure, physical properties, zwitterions, structure in acid/alkaline solution, hydroylsis of peptides and chromatography. Suitable for the all of new 2015 A-Level Chemistry specifications.
Topic 6 Organic chemistry knowledge organiser
polarity24polarity24

Topic 6 Organic chemistry knowledge organiser

(0)
Knowledge organisers for the Edexcel A-Level Chemistry topic 6. Including chemistry of the hydrocarbons, alcohols and halogenoalkanes. Includes information on all of the chemistry from the edexcel syllabus on alkanes, alkenes, alcohols and halogenoalkanes. Structure, bonding, naming, mechanisms, apparatus, equations etc are included. A comprehensive coverage of the whole of the topic 6 organic chemistry topic 6a-e
Chemical changes bundle
polarity24polarity24

Chemical changes bundle

8 Resources
A bundle of 8 resources on the AQA GCSE (2018) Chemistry topic Chemical changes. Includes a knowledge organiser on the reactivity series, reactions of metals and acids, knowledge organiser on electrolysis (including information on electrolysis of lead bromide, aluminium oxide and aqueous sodium chloride). A worksheet and cut and stick electrolysis activity and finally there are some acid/alkali and electrolysis traffic light quizzes and a card match activities.
Acids and alkalis
polarity24polarity24

Acids and alkalis

(0)
A GCSE Chemistry traffic light quiz on acids and alkalis, suitable for the new 2018 AQA GCSE syllabus. Students use traffic light cards to answer the questions. Can be used as a plenary and answers are included.
Shapes of molecules worksheet
polarity24polarity24

Shapes of molecules worksheet

(0)
An A-Level chemistry worksheet on shapes of molecules (electron pair repulsion theory). Students have to complete the number of bond pairs/lone pairs, bond angle and shape for each molecule.
Electrolysis Cut and stick
polarity24polarity24

Electrolysis Cut and stick

(0)
A cut and stick activity for the new AQA GCSE (2018) Chemistry syllabus on electrolysis. Students have to stick in the relevant labels onto the electrolysis diagrams and then complete the ionic equations relevant for the electrolysis.
Electrolysis of solutions activity
polarity24polarity24

Electrolysis of solutions activity

(0)
KS4 Resource on electrolysis Instructions: There are 16 boxes of questions. Print off in various colours and then cut out so they are in stacks stapled Q1 – 16. Each team is allocated a different colour. They rip a question off at the front of the class and take it back to their team to answer it. They then bring it back to teacher at front who marks it. If correct they can move onto the next Q. If incorrect they return to their group and re-attempt. First team to complete all Qs wins.
Topic 18A Arenes flash cards
polarity24polarity24

Topic 18A Arenes flash cards

(0)
A collection of more than 100 flash cards on the Structure and reactions of Benzene. Suitable for the new A-Level 2015 syllabuses. Each cue card has a question with the answer on the back. An excellent revision resource for students, takes just 5 minutes to print out the cards and cut them up.
Empirical formulae
polarity24polarity24

Empirical formulae

(0)
A bundle of three resources on the A-Level concept calculating empirical formulae. The resources include a differentiated calculations sheet (with answers) with each section increasing in difficulty. A class relay activity is included, which involves students working in groups to solve empirical formula problems. Both resources combined encourages active participation and takes about an hour to complete.
