AQA spec link: 4.7.1.1
Crude oil is a finite resource found in rocks. Crude oil is the remains of an ancient biomass consisting mainly of plankton that was buried in mud.
Crude oil is a mixture of a very large number of compounds. Most of the compounds in crude oil are hydrocarbons, which are molecules made up of hydrogen and carbon atoms only.
Most of the hydrocarbons in crude oil are hydrocarbons called alkanes. The general formula for the homologous series of alkanes is CnH2n+2
The first four members of the alkanes are methane, ethane, propane and butane.
Alkane molecules can be represented in the following forms: C2H6 or Students should be able to recognise substances as alkanes given their formulae in these forms.
Students do not need to know the names of specific alkanes other than methane, ethane, propane and butane.
C10-Chemical analysis-Gas test lesson created in accordance to the NEW AQA Specification (9-1). Designed for a low ability year 11 class, although content can be adjusted to suit any ability. Includes: slide animations, embedded videos and practice questions with answers on slides as well as method for each test. I strongly recommend that you allow your students to practice the Hydrogen pop test (if they're good), went down really well with my class and was easy for them to recall the method in the class test they did. The rest of the tests can be demonstrated fairly easily and personally getting each student to do every test would've taken me well over an hour.
AQA spec link: 5.8.2.1-4
The test for hydrogen uses a burning splint held at the open end of a test tube of the gas.
Hydrogen burns rapidly with a pop sound. The test for oxygen uses a glowing splint inserted into a test tube of the gas. The splint relights in oxygen.
The test for carbon dioxide uses an aqueous solution of calcium hydroxide (lime water). When carbon dioxide is shaken with or bubbled through limewater the limewater turns milky (cloudy).
The test for chlorine uses litmus paper. When damp litmus paper is put into chlorine gas the litmus paper is bleached and turns white.
C13-The Earth’s atmosphere-Greenhouse gases lesson created in accordance to the NEW AQA Specification (9-1). Designed for a mixed ability year 11 separates class, although content can be adjusted to suit any ability.

AQA spec link: 4.9.2.1, 2,
Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere maintain temperatures on Earth high enough to support life. Water vapour, carbon dioxide, and methane are greenhouse gases.
Students should be able to describe the greenhouse effect in terms of the interaction of short and long wavelength radiation with matter.
Some human activities increase the amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. These include:
• carbon dioxide
• methane.
Students should be able to recall two human activities that increase the amounts of each of the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and methane.
Based on peer-reviewed evidence, many scientists believe that human activities will cause the temperature of the Earth’s atmosphere to increase at the surface and that this will result in global climate change.
However, it is difficult to model such complex systems as global climate change. This leads to simplified models, speculation, and opinions presented in the media that may be based on only parts of the evidence and which may be biased.
Students should be able to:
• evaluate the quality of evidence in a report about global climate change given appropriate information
• describe uncertainties in the evidence base
• recognise the importance of peer review of results and of communicating results to a wide range of audiences.

AQA spec link:
For 200 million years, the proportions of different gases in the atmosphere have been much the same as they are today:
• about four-fifths (approximately 80%) nitrogen
• about one-fifth (approximately 20%) oxygen
• small proportions of various other gases, including carbon dioxide, water vapour, and noble gases.
Volcanoes also produced nitrogen which gradually built up in the atmosphere and there may have been small proportions of methane and ammonia.
Algae and plants decreased the percentage of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by photosynthesis.
Carbon dioxide was also decreased by the formation of sedimentary rocks and fossil fuels that contain carbon.
Students should be able to:
• describe the main changes in the atmosphere over time and some of the likely causes of these changes
• describe and explain the formation of deposits of limestone, coal, crude oil, and natural gas.

AQA spec link: 4.7.1.4
Hydrocarbons can be broken down (cracked) to produce smaller, more useful molecules.
Cracking can be done by various methods including catalytic cracking and steam cracking.
Students should be able to describe in general terms the conditions used for catalytic cracking and steam cracking.
The products of cracking include alkanes and another type of hydrocarbon called alkenes.
Alkenes are more reactive than alkanes and react with bromine water, which is used as a test for alkenes.
Students should be able to recall the colour change when bromine water reacts with an alkene.
There is a high demand for fuels with small molecules and so some of the products of cracking are useful as fuels.
Alkenes are used to produce polymers and as starting materials for the production of many other chemicals.
Students should be able to balance chemical equations as examples of cracking given the formulae of the reactants and products.
Students should be able to give examples to illustrate the usefulness of cracking. They should also be able to explain how modern life depends on the uses of hydrocarbons.
(For Combined Science: Trilogy and Synergy students do not need to know the formulae or names of individual alkenes.)

environmental impact of products in each of these stages:
•• extracting and processing raw materials
•• manufacturing and packaging
•• use and operation during its lifetime
•• disposal at the end of its useful life, including transport and
distribution at each stage.
Use of water, resources, energy sources and production of some wastes can be fairly easily quantified. Allocating numerical values to pollutant effects is less straightforward and requires value judgements, so LCA is not a purely objective process. Selective or abbreviated LCAs can be devised to evaluate a product but these can be misused to reach pre-determined conclusions, eg in support of claims for advertising purposes.
Students should be able to carry out simple comparative LCAs for shopping bags made from plastic and paper.
C2-The periodic table-Group 7-the halogens lesson created in accordance to the NEW AQA Specification (9-1). Designed for a mixed ability year 9 class, although content can be adjusted to suit any ability.

The many hydrocarbons in crude oil may be separated into fractions, each of which contains molecules with a similar number of carbon atoms, by fractional distillation.
The fractions can be processed to produce fuels and feedstock for the petrochemical industry.
Many of the fuels on which we depend for our modern lifestyle, such as petrol, diesel oil, kerosene, heavy fuel oil and liquefied petroleum gases, are produced from crude oil.
Many useful materials on which modern life depends are produced by the petrochemical industry, such as solvents, lubricants, polymers, detergents.
The vast array of natural and synthetic carbon compounds occur due to the ability of carbon atoms to form families of similar compounds.
Students should be able to explain how fractional distillation works in terms of evaporation and condensation.
Knowledge of the names of other specific fractions or fuels is not required.
