Homework Booklet also included.

Higher ability, Middle and Lower differentiated thoughout.

Covers:
Chemical reactions
 chemical reactions as the rearrangement of atoms
 representing chemical reactions using formulae and using equations
 combustion, thermal decomposition, oxidation and displacement reactions  defining acids and alkalis in terms of neutralisation reactions
 the pH scale for measuring acidity/alkalinity; and indicators
Energetics
 energy changes on changes of state (qualitative)
 exothermic and endothermic chemical reactions (qualitative).

Materials
 properties of ceramics, polymers and composites (qualitative)
 the order of metals and carbon in the reactivity series.
