A complete lesson covering section 5.2.3 a- e of the OCR Chemistry specification - redox reactions and carrying out redox titrations. The lesson opens with a reminder of oxidation numbers from year 12. It then looks at reducing and oxidising agents using an example to reinforce the idea. The lesson then moves onto how half equations can be used to construct overall equations for reactions, again with students led practice. It then looks at using oxidation numbers to complete equations, including when some species are missing from the equation (such as water) . The final part of the lesson looks at redox titrations including both how to carry them out as well as various examples of calculation including calculating purity and using it to work out water of crystalisation. The lesson includes worked examples and student independent practice. I aim to reduce copying so all activities are within the PowerPoint- 36 slides in total

A full lesson covering section 5.1.1 i of the OCR a level chemistry specification- the rate determining step. It covers how to analyse results to calculate the order of reactants and how to use this to work our reaction mechanisms. There are worked examples allowing for a ‘I do- we do-you do’ style of delivery. The lesson includes a starter, full notes, worked examples, student activities and a differentiated summary at the end All answers included

A complete lesson taking students through the calculations for reacting masses Suitable for trilogy and separate chemistry It starts with practice of moles and molar calculations. It then demonstrates the idea of ratios using recipes for making cakes. There are then some worked examples for the whole class to do together plus some individual practice. The lesson closes with more students practice and then com exam questions. Updated 23/11/20 as my class requested more worked examples to do as a class All answers included

This is the first lesson in OCR Electron structure and Bonding. This is a full lesson covering all the OCR specification points in section 2.2.1. This lesson covers electron shells, sub orbitals, electron spin, electron structure, forming ions and the three ways of demonstrating the arrangement of electrons in atoms and ions. It includes a starter, comprehensive notes, a variety of activities and summary questions and has differentiated questions Includes all answers Many slides have additional teacher notes to support delivery with suggestions about how to explain phenomena to students. This is a free sample- other lessons are available in my shop

This is a complete lesson covering section 5.1.2 a-e of module 5 of the OCR Chemistry specification- The equilibrium constant Kp in gaseous equilibria. It remind students of the difference between homogeneous and heterogeneous equiliibria and how to calculate both mole fractions and partial pressues. It then demonstrates how to uses these figures to calculate Kp and it associated units. in a cross curricular link it also looks at oxygen transport and the role of equilibria with haemoglobin.

A full lesson covering point 4.2.2e of the OCR A level Chemistry specification- the environmental issues caused by haloalkanes. It covers the development and use of organohalogens as well as the mechanisms by which CFCs cause damage to the ozone layer. It also includes the other chemicals that may damage the ozone layer and the chemicals that are being used as an alternative. The lesson includes a starter, full notes, various student activities and a fully differentiated summary at the end. All answers included.

A complete lesson covering section 5.2.1 c and d of the OCR Chemistry specification- enthalpies of solution. The lesson starts by covering the difference between the first and subsequent electron affinities. It then moves to showing how lattice enthalpies can be used to support calculating enthalpies of solution. It shows his these values can be calculated using practical means as well as theoretically. It closes by looking at the difference between exothermic and endothermic reactions.
