Predominately a Chemistry teacher, although I dabble with Biology and Physics too. Most of my schemes of work were planned for either AQA or iGCSE schemes of work at KS4 and the IB at KS5 (although I have no official affiliation with the IB)

These PowerPoints were planned as part of the IB scheme of work on Atomic Structure, and cover the necessary content for both the Standard and Higher Level topics. It would also be suitable for other post-16 courses. Included are fully completed PowerPoints, student versions of the PowerPoints with sections to complete independently and some exam style questions. Topics included are: - The structure of the atom - The development of the theory of atomic structure from Dalton-present day - Isotopes and their properties - Calculating the R.A.M. of an isotope - Calculating the % abundance of two isotopes, given the R.A.M. - Radioisotopes and their uses - The mass spectrometer: what it is used for, how it works, why it works and how to read mass spectra - How to calculate the energy of a photon of light - Atomic Emission Spectra - How to write full electronic configurations for elements up to the 4p orbital - How to write full electronic configurations for ions of the elements up to the 4p orbital - The convergence limit of energy in energy levels and how this links to First Ionisation Energy - Trends in First Ionisation Energy and how this provided evidence for the presence of orbitals

iGCSE Chemistry Moles Unit of Work

(3)
This booklet and accompanying PowerPoints covers the Moles topic for iGCSE Chemistry. It would also be useful for other courses, as it covers all of the topics in the list below. The booklet is designed to be interactive and to be filled in by the students, accompanied by the PowerPoints. It includes spaces for worked calculations, exercises, past paper questions (taken from the Cambridge iGCSE papers) and two practicals. The answers to the exercises are also provided for the workbook and are shown on the PowerPoints. What exactly is a mole? How can we convert between masses and moles? How do we deal with diatomic molecules? Converting between mass and moles in compounds Calculating the % by mass of an element in a compound Balancing Equations Reacting Masses Limiting Reagents Percentage Yield Practical - How much copper sulphate can we get from malachite? Percentage Purity Empirical Formula Moles in Gases Moles in Solutions Titrations Practical – What is the concentration of sodium hydroxide? I also have another scheme of work where this booklet has been altered slightly for the Co-ordinated Science Chemistry moles unit.
