Topic C2e: Extraction and uses of metals (Edexcel iGCSE Chemistry)

This bundle of 4 lessons covers the majority of the content in Topic C2e (Extraction and uses of metals) of the Edexcel iGCSE Chemistry specification. The topics and specification points covered within these lessons include:

• Know the most metals are extracted from ores found in the Earth’s crust and the unreactive metals are often found as the uncombined metal
• Explain how the method of extraction is related to the position of the metal in the reactivity series
• Know that an alloy is a mixture of a metal and one or more elements
• Explain why alloys are harder than pure metals

All of these lesson presentations and accompanying resources are detailed and engaging and contain regular progress checks to allow the students to constantly assess their understanding.
