Revision notes on Bonding and Structure.<br />
<br />
Includes: ionic, covalent and metallic bonding, dot and cross diagrams, giant ionic, giant covalent, giant metallic and simple molecular structures with examples, properties and explanations for their properties.
Table showing the types of structure, their properties and explanations for their properties.<br />
<br />
Includes giant metallic, giant ionic, giant covalent/macromolecular, and simple molecular structures.<br />
<br />
Useful as a GCSE summary resource or a recap for A-Level students.
4 worked examples going through different types of titration calculation, from a simple calculation to a back titration to a calculation finding the percentage purity of a solid.<br />
<br />
The pdf contains the written out worked examples with annotations and tips, and could be given directly to students or used by the teacher going through the worked examples from the front. The word document leaves spaces for the students to fill in the calculations for themselves, and both contain similar practice questions for students to check their understanding.
Presentation designed to revise using titration method to make salts and introduce the concepts of strength and concentration of acids and alkalis.<br />
<br />
Includes practice questions calculating concentrations of solutions.
Notes and gaps to fill covering reversible reactions and equilibrium reactions. <br />
<br />
Designed to be filled in during/after a demonstration of the anhydrous/hydrated copper sulfate reversible reaction and heating ammonium chloride.<br />
<br />
Includes exercise thinking through the observations that would be made as the position of the NO2/N2O4 equilibrium is changed.
Aimed at KS3/GCSE students studying the development of the atmosphere. Laid out as a flow chart/timeline for students to fill in a brief description of the atmosphere at each stage and how and why it changed over time.<br />
<br />
Could be used as a summary sheet for students to fill in after class discussion/presentation of how the atmosphere changed, or as a group research task where groups look at information/data about the different stages of the atmosphere and fill in what they have found out. The second option can easily be differentiated by varying the level of information given to different ability groups.
Quick worksheet summarising mole calculations with practice questions calculation relative formula mass, converting between numbers of moles and masses, calculating percentage by mass, and working out empirical formulae from masses and percentage masses.
Worksheet with a combination of information and gaps for students to fill in as they learn about the effects of temperature and pressure on equilibrium reactions.<br />
<br />
Includes examples for students to work through.
<p>Designed for Year 12 and 13 students preparing for Edexcel A Level Chemistry exams, and specifically the difficult synoptic and practical focused Paper 3: General and Practical Principles of Chemistry. It is an ideal standalone resource to give to students to work on (for the core practicals they have covered) over the summer between L6 to U6, in revision for mock exams, or over Easter before the final exams.</p>
<p>Section 1 contains notes on working scientifically, including identifying variables, making observations, results tables and graphs, risk assessments, errors and uncertainties. (All skills contained within CPAC statements).</p>
<p>Section 2 contains notes on each core practical, describing the method, analysing sample results, suggesting sources of experimental error, and explaining the theory behind the practical. Important considerations are noted at the end of each practical, suggesting points that could be examined in Paper 3.</p>
<p>The booklet is very comprehensive, with 48 highly detailed pages, and is in pdf form, ready to print and photocopy and give to students as it is. Small adjustments may be made to it using Adobe Acrobat Pro.</p>
PowerPoint presentation reviewing the alkali metals and their reactions with oxygen and water. Also includes information about the reactions of calcium and magnesium with water.<br />
<br />
Used as a revision/recap presentation for high ability KS3 students studying the reactivity series of metals but could be used for GCSE, and can also be easily edited.

Questions to help GCSE students identify the marking points required when the write about making salts by using a titration, the excess solid method, or precipitation. <br />
<br />
Could be done as a pair or group activity, where different groups are asked to devise model answers for different questions, or just as an individual summary task. The mark scheme could be given out or used as a teacher reference material. Could lead into a practical summary task.<br />
