CC3 Atomic structure for the new 9-1 GCSE
CC4 The periodic table
TOPIC 1 KEY CONCEPTS OF CHEMISTRY PAPER 1 and PAPER 2- NEW for SEPTEMBER 2017
I put these two lessons together as I feel the electron configuration should be taught with the atomic mass and number
Learning objectives:
To know the meaning of the term mass number and atomic number
To be able to calculate the number of protons, electrons and neutrons in atoms given the atomic number and mass number
To be able to predict electronic configurations for the first 20 elements
All extension questions available on each slide
Answers all underneath each slide
Support also available where necessary
Main topics include:
- Structure of atoms
- Protons, Electrons and neutrons
-Calculating PEN
-Atomic number and mass number
- Electron shells
- Working out electron configurations
Powerpoints include:
- Independent work
- AfL
- Tests
- Mini quizzes
- Games

TOPIC 8 Fuels and Earth science PAPER 2- NEW for SEPTEMBER 2017
CC16b Fractional distillation of crude oil
L2 Fractional distillation
or lower ability
L2 and L3 Fractional distillation
For the lesson:
You will need to laminate the fractional distillation sheet, the cards to go with the sheet and you will also require some string (not provided). Instructions are contained at the bottom of each slide.
This lesson allows students to generate an A3 sheet for the properties (viscosity, boiling point, ignition and chain length) and the uses for each fraction.
Students will then require to complete and A4 sheet containing all of the information.
I have done this in 2's so students can complete the A3 sheet themselves OR if limited printing allowed I have made stations around the room for each property and allowed students to complete a market place activity to fill in the student sheet. Either works fine and also depends on ability
LESSON
To understand how crude oil is separated into useful fractions
To be able to explain the differences between each fraction
To explain a use for each fraction
All extension questions available on each slide
Answers all underneath each slide
Support also available where necessary

- conservation of mass in non-enclosed and closed systems
- How does the law of conservation of mass explain why magnesium increases mass when it is burned and how copper carbonate reduces its mass when thermal decompostion occurs
-What is concentration?
-Concentration of solution
- converting between cm3 and dm3
- moles
-limiting reagents
-Using moles to balance equations
