Edexcel Combined Science CC8a Acids and Indicators. This presentation includes details on hazard symbols and their meaning, acids, indicators, pH and ions in acids and alkalis. It also includes the practical for testing indicators with solutions of different pH (CC8a.1) the reference to worksheet CC8a.3 refers to the Edexcel published worksheets.

Edexcel CC9b Conservation of mass. This presentation allows students to practice calculating the concentration of solutions as well as guiding them through calculating reacting masses. A differentiated worksheet is included as well.

Edexcel CC7c Properties of metals. This presentation explores the typical physical properties of metals and how the structure of metals explains these properties. A differentiated worksheet is included.

Edexcel CC7a Molecular Compounds. This presentation explores properties of simple molecular compounds and explores polymers, their properties and how to name and draw them.

Edexcel CC4b Atomic Number and the Periodic Table. This presentation explores how the elements are arranged in the modern Periodic table and pair reversals. It also includes a worksheet.

Edexcel CC4c Electronic configuations. This presentation explores the how to work out the configuration of an element and how it is related to its position in Periodic Table.

This is a powerpoint I use with my year 8 to familiarise them with the scientific method and analysing data and writing conclusions with evaluations. It sits nicely with my other powerpoint on maths in science for year 8 and results and graphs.

This is a series of 10 question recall tests for use at the start or end of a lesson. This presentation includes quizzes on states of matter and mixtures. At the end of each quiz is a slide with just the questions on so that they can be printed off and handed out to students as a starter whilst you do the register. The presentation then goes through each questions with the answer so that students can self assess. Alternatively it can be done as a plenary and you can rapid fire targeted questions just using the presentation.

Edexcel CC10a Electrolysis. This presentation explores the apparatus sued in electrolysis and the terminology used. It explains why solid ionic substances can not conduct electricity and then takes higher students through the skill of writing half equations and using OILRIG to work out reduction and oxidation. IT also includes 3 differentiated worksheets.

Edexcel CC5a Ionic Bonds. This presentation usually takes about 3 or 4 lessons depending upon how quickly the students grasp the concept. It is worth spending time ensuring full comprehension as this is one of the fundamentals in chemistry. It starts by looking at how ions form, then moves onto drawing ions and ionic bonding diagrams ( dot and cross diagrams) Finally it ends by looking at charges on ions and how they link to the position in the Periodic Table. 3 differentiated worksheets are also included with this bundle.

A powerpoint to help students through the CC8c Core practical - Preparing Copper sulfate crystals. This includes setting the task, a method for students to follow and relevant questions to ask following the practical. The last slide is one I print off and laminate as an aid for students to keep or it could go on a display of core practical in the lab.

An introduction to basic quantitative analysis including making standard solutions, titrations and using titration results in calculations. The presentation can be used as a stand alone lesson when revising or used in conjunction with the booklet when teaching this topic.

OCR AS Oxidation numbers presentation and associated worksheets used in the presentation. I get the students to print off the oxidation rules and laminate them for reference in their files rather than continually turning back. Thanks for looking.

This is a stand alone presentation I use for after school revision throughout the year to show students how to approach calculations involving moles. The slides can be adapted or quantities changed each week so that students practice new problems each time.
