NEW AQA GCSE Trilogy (2016) Chemistry - Limiting reactants & percentage yield

This lesson is designed for the NEW AQA Trilogy Chemistry GCSE, particularly the ‘Chemical calculation’ SoW.

For more lessons designed to meet specification points for the NEW AQA Trilogy specifications for Biology, Chemistry and Physics please see my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/SWiftScience

Students will firstly be introduced to the concept of a limiting reactant, using the example of hydrochloric acid and magnesium. Pupils will then be shown the steps to take to work out the limiting reactant of a reaction, using a worked example. Using this example students can then complete a set of questions on limiting reactants, the answers these questions are provided in the PowerPoint presentation.

Next pupils will watch a video on percentage yield, they will need to answer a set of questions using the video. Once complete pupils can self-assess their answers against the answers provided. Pupils will then be provided with a set of steps to help them work out the percentage yield of a chemical reaction, pupils can check they have completed this task correctly using the answers on the PowerPoint.

The last task is a worksheet of percentage yield problems, pupils will need to show their working for each question. The answers are again provided on the PowerPoint presentation for pupils to self-assess their work.

The plenary task is for pupils is a key word and Ar bingo task, pupils should choose 6 keys words/relative atomic masses from th board. The teacher will then read out clues, if students think that they have the word/Ar they can cross it out, first to cross all 6 our shouts bingo!

All resources are included at the end of the presentation. Thanks for looking, if you have any questions please let me know in the comments section and any feedback would be appreciated :)
