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.

Atomic structure 20 minute recall

(0)
A revision activity for the new AQA 901 Science GCSE. This one is on the topic C1 Atomic strucutre. Contains quick fire questions on the all of the topic. Takes about 20 mins to complete with and nicely covers the key terminolgy of the topic. I use it as part of a revision lesson on the topic. Answers are included.
Organic analysis
polarity24polarity24

Organic analysis

(0)
An A-Level Chemistry resource which can be used as a starter/plenary on spectrometry. Student are given various physical data (melting point, solubility, rotation of polarised light, elemental analysis) and spectra (IR, NMR, Mass spec and pH). Students have to pull all the information together to identify the compound. The unknown compound is an amino acid, so it consolidates knowledge on chirality, solubility, zwitterions, pH and then understanding of the various spectroscopic techniques. takes about 10 mins for students to complete, answers are included on the last slide.
Shapes of molecules - working it out

Shapes of molecules - working it out

(0)
A resource on the A-Level Chemistry concept shapes of molecules (electron pair repulsion theory). Is an information sheet which helps students work out the number of bonding pairs and lone pairs in a molecule and hence determine its shape. Includes a table of the bond pairs, lone pairs, shape, bond angle and examples.
Organic chemistry reactions and conditions
polarity24polarity24

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.
Equilibrium knowledge organiser
polarity24polarity24

Equilibrium knowledge organiser

(0)
An A-Level Chemistry knowledge organiser on equilibrium. Covers knowledge on Le Chatelier’s principle, examples of how equilibrium is affected, equations for Kc and Kp, partial pressure, mole fraction etc. Also information on the Haber process and the Haber compromise, dynamic equilibrium etc. A comprehensive organiser that covers everything that students need to know on equilibrium in year 12 and 13.
Mass spectra fragmentation table

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.
Mass Spectra

Mass Spectra

(0)
A set of Mass Spectra cards suitable for the new 2015 A-Level chemistry syllabus. Students complete each card, identifying the peaks and answering the questions. Cards include compounds of butane, propanoic acid, bromine, bromoethane and 3-methyl-2-butanone. Resource provided in both Power Point and PDF format with answers included.
Reactions of Transition metals

Skeletal formula

(0)
An A-level chemistry resource on skeletal formulas. Students cut and stick the correct formula onto the correct box with its corresponding name.
Infrared spectra (Edexcel 2015)
polarity24polarity24

Infrared spectra (Edexcel 2015)

(0)
An A-Level chemistry knowledge organiser on Infrared spectra. Contains everything the students need to know about Infrared for the new Edexcel 2015 syllabus including: Examples of spectra for OH, C=O, COOH, C=C, C-H, N-H functional groups. Also includes a data table of absorptions and information on the types of stretches (asymmetric, bending etc). Information about how molecules bonds vibrate is also included.
Atomic structure and periodic table cards

Atomic structure and periodic table cards

(0)
A playing cards activity which has questions on atomic structure and periodic table. Students can play different card games which also test their knowledge. Students liked playing black Jack where they could only twist and receive a card if they got the question right on the back of the card. There are several games that my students enjoyed playing with this resource. Foundation and higher game cards are included.
Redox Ecell game

Redox Ecell game

(0)
I used this with my year 13 class and they loved it. An excellent revision resource. Students have to answer a question on Ecell if they land on a star. Question cards on Ecell are included in this resource.
Alkanes and alkenes
polarity24polarity24

Alkanes and alkenes

(0)
An Knowledge organiser on A-Level organic chemistry, the hydrocarbons (Alkanes and alkenes) including: naming, intermolecular forces, general formulae, structual & Geometric isomers, reactions of alkanes: oxidation and free radical substitution (with chlorine). Reactions of alkenes with hydrogen, bromine water, steam, hydrogen halides, potassium managanate. Covalent bonding (sigma/pi bonds), addition polymerisation, use as fuels, fractional distillation, cracking reforming etc. Mechanisms: Free radical substitution and electrophilic addition (markovnikov & the inductive effect).
