I made a simple display of the atomic structure of various isotopes, with the emphasis on simplicity and clarity. Just because I wanted to. I also included it as keynote and powerpoint presentations.

I made a simple three slide presentation concerning addition reaction of alkenes compared with the substitution reaction of arenes. This is an important exam question topic and is poorly understood by students. I enclose both keynote and powerpoint versions.

This runs in your browser…click on the correct answer and you get feedback. Eight slides. Please note: in order to provide a rich interactive experience, my interactive resources are mini-web sites local to your computer. After unzipping, they comprise a folder containing the main quiz.html file and another folder containing the graphic resources and my coding to make the resource work. Double click on the quiz.html file and the resource will work. If, however , you move or delete any of the files from this hierarchy, the resource will not work.

I made a crazy video about hydrolysing water with a hofmann voltameter Note: the youtube version is free. I only put a price on the download because you have to do that for the resource to appear on TES pages.
