Energy Release per Carbon Quality Mark Assessment (TASK ONLY)

This is the free version of an assessment for KS4 students who are studying hydrocarbons, fuels, alkanes, how number of carbons in a molecule affects properties, combustion, graph plotting and data handling.

I have also produced a resource pack available to purchase from TES at
https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/energy-release-per-carbon-quality-mark-assessment-full-resource-pack-11353565

The resource pack comes with several parts;
1. PowerPoint presentation to introduce the task, including a recap of naming alkanes and fractional distillation.

2. Word document printout for the students to stick in their books; one version has just the task, and the other version has both the task and level ladder merged together on one page.

3. Word document printout with a level ladder on so that the students can self/peer assess the work.

4. Word document containing a mark scheme.

5. Excel spreadsheet that can be used to automatically generate extended written feedback including improvement strategies for the teacher to give the students.
A guide on how to use this resource can be freely accessed at

6. Word document printout writing frame to assist students who may benefit from additional help with this task.

7. JPEG images showing a several hand-drawn versions of the graph, this may also be useful for students who aren't confident in starting to plot graphs. I've included sketches of the extrapolation of the data from the line of best fit, and highlighted the anomalous result


This task is suitable for students at Grade E-A*, I have left these on however these can be so that you can use the old or new grading system.
