This PowerPoint will allow you to deliver the GCSE 9-1 Chemistry Core Practical in which copper sulphate salt is prepared from copper oxide and sulphuric acid. It includes an easy-to-follow method to share with students, plus a brief look at how this method could be applied to a six-mark question.
The resources are easy to follow for teachers, readily accessible for students and are appropriate for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and High-tier.
Other GCSE lessons (including other lessons on Acids and Alkalis) are available from my shop. They can be purchased individually or, alongside this lesson, as part of a whole-topic bundle.
These PowerPoints will allow you to teach students the GCSE 9-1 Chemistry required content on the reactions of acids with metals, metal oxides, metal hydroxides and metal carbonates. Two full lesson PowerPoints are provided:
Reactions of Acids
Introduces the key rules for acid reactions and deals primarily with word equations, though there are some opportunities for balanced equation practice in the final task.
Acid reactions and Balanced Equations
This lesson builds upon the rules learned in lesson 1, while recalling formulae and skills learned in previous lessons, so that students learn to write balanced equations for acid reactions with minimal provided.
A homework sheet (plus mark-scheme) is then included for students to practise what they learn across the two lessons.
The resources are easy to follow for teachers, readily accessible for students and are appropriate for Combined and Triple Science classes, Foundation and Higher tiers.
Other GCSE lessons (including others from the Acids and Alkalis topic) are available from my shop. They can be purchased individually or, alongside this lesson, as part of a whole-topic bundle.
These lesson PowerPoints (with suggested practical task) will allow you to deliver two lessons to a broad range of abilities. Lesson 1 introduces the reactivity series of metals, sets up a simple experiment and then focuses on balancing chemical equations. Lesson 2 builds upon these skills by looking at the reactions of metals with oxygen, water and acids.
The lesson is in keeping with the current KS3 UK National Curriculum, is easily accessible for students and simple to follow for teachers.
This bundle contains PowerPoints and associated resources sufficient to deliver ten full lessons.
The “Skills 1, 2 and 3” lessons will allow you to teach new Year 7 students essential practical skills including naming and drawing lab equipment, recognising hazards, measuring and weighing accurately, and lighting and using Bunsen burners safely. Each lesson includes an equipment list on the opening slide.
The remaining lessons will allow you to teach the Key Stage 3 National Curriculum required learning on Mixtures and Separation Techniques. Lesson 7Ea “Mixtures” comes with an overview and Equipment list for the full topic.
I have many other KS3 lessons and bundles available so please check out my shop, OnSpecScience.
