A lesson on ores and extracting metals for the Edexcel 9-1 spec. The lesson covers what is an ore and the different methods of extracting metals. A set of factsheets ( tailored to the Edexcel 9-1 spec) is included.

A lesson that covers trends in melting points across Periods 2 and 3. The lesson describes how carbon, silicon and boron form giant covalent lattices. It then covers how the type of bonding changes across a period and periodic trends in melting points.Questions and answers are on the slides for students to work through – no printing required. Designed for the OCR A Level specification.

A lesson that covers the reactions and reactivity of Gropup 2 metals with oxygen, water and acid and it explains the reactivity trends down the group. Questions and answers are on the slides for students to work through – no printing required. Designed for the OCR A Level specification.

A lesson on rates and the Boltzmann Distribution for the new OCR A level specification. The lesson reviews the factors that impact a rate of reaction (concentration, temperature, pressure, surface area) and then goes over how to draw Boltzmann distributions for different conditions (e.g. different temperatures). All questions are on the slide so no printing required.

A lesson that covers the periodic table. This kesson covers the meaning of periodicity, how elements are arranged into groups and periods and what is meant by an s-,p- and d-block element. Questions and answers are on the slides for students to work through. Designed for the OCR A Level specification.

A lesson on Group 1 - The Alkali Metals. It covers the physical properties of the alkali metals, their reaction with water ( can be done as a demo or by showing a video) and an explanation of the trend in reactivity down the group. Questions and answers are on the slides – no printing required. Designed for the AQA 9-1 GCSE chemistry specification.

A lesson on ionic compounds and lattices (ions and dot and cross diagrams are covered in my lesson on ions). This lesson goes through when ionic bonds form, what an ionic lattice is and how to write the formulae for ionic compounds. Questions and answers are on the slides – no printing required. Designed for the AQA 9-1 GCSE chemistry specification.

A lesson on covalent bonding. It covers the definition of a covalent bond, how to draw dot and cross diagrams for covalent molecules and how to work out the formula of a molecule from a diagram. Questions and answers are on the slides – no printing required. Designed for the AQA 9-1 GCSE chemistry specification.

A lesson on calculating amount of substance. It covers what the numbers mean in a balanced equation and how to calculate the amount of substance. Includes a worksheet (with answers) and slides for foundation and higher tier. Designed for the AQA GCSE 9-1 specification.

A lesson that covers how to calculate the relative formula mass. It goes through simple compounds, how to work out the number of atoms in a molecule and how to calculate formula for larger compounds. A worksheet (with answers is included). Designed for the GCSE 9-1 AQA Specification.

A lesson on endothermic and exothermic reactions. It covers what the terms mean and a practical on dissolving salts in water and measuring the temperature change. All questions and answers on the slides – no printing required. Designed for the 9-1 GCSE AQA specification.

A collection of starters ( with answers) covering part of Module 2 in OCR A Level Chemistry. Lessons included are: Atomic Structure Relative Atomic Mass Ions and Periodic Table Electron Shells and Orbitals Electronic Configuration Ionic Bonding Properties of Ionic Compounds Covalent Bonding Shapes of Molecules Electronegativity and Polarity Intermolecular Forces Hydrogen Bonding

A lesson on the Earth’s early atmosphere. It covers how the Earth’s early atmosphere how it changed over time. A storyboard activity and an exam question slide are include. Designed for the AQA 9-1 GCSE specification.

A lesson on the hydroxide test for cations. It goes through how to carry out the tests, the results and ionic equations. Questions and answers provided on slides – no need to print. Designed for the AQA 9-1 GCSE specification.

A lesson on anion tests. It covers the test for sulfate, carbonate and halide ions. It goes through the practical, results and ionic equations. Questions and answers provided on slides – no need to print. Designed for the AQA 9-1 GCSE specification.

A lesson covering the theory of synthesis of an organic solid. It covers the steps in the synthesis of a solid and exam questions for students to complete. All questions and answers are included on the slide – no need to print. Designed for the OCR A Level Specification.

A lesson covering the theory of making an organic liquid. It includes the method and exam questions (with answers). Everything is on the slides – no printing required. Designed for the OCR A level specification.

A lessson on drinking water. It covers what is potable water, how water is purified and made safe to drink and the challenges in purifying wastewater and sea water. Questions and answers are included on slides – no need to print. Designed for the GCSE 9-1 AQA specification.

A lessson on corrosion. It covers what corrosion is and links it to the reactivity series. It also goes over methods used to prevent corrosion. It also covers oxidation and reduction in terms of electrons. All questions and answers are included on the slides – no need to print. Designed for the GCSE 9-1 AQA specification.

A Power Point adapted from a free TES Powerpoint -- I have added exam questions and updated for the Edexcel 9-1 spec. It covers the factors that impact the rates (there is a video and some fact sheets for the students to use to fill in a table).
