Qualitative analysis of organic functional groups A-level Chemistry- workbook and supporting PP

KS 5 Chemistry - Organic chemistry and analysis – Qualitative analysis of functional groups (student workbook & teacher power point). This resource could be best used in a revision when teaching Chromatography and functional group analysis -29.1 Unit or used as a revision after teaching unit 25 and 26 .
This work covered should allow students to review/ assess/ evaluate their learning on the following:
• Identify functional groups in given organic compounds
• Show the structure and formulae of different functional groups
• Describe chemical tests and state the observations for the following compounds:
alkene, carbonyl, aldehyde, alcohols, carboxylic acid, phenol and haloalkane
• Explain how the ester group can be identified
• Describe the reactions of -OH group in alcohols, phenols and in -COOH in carboxylic acids (reactions with sodium, sodium hydroxide solution and sodium carbonate solution)
• Describe a sequence of tests that could be carry out on given organic compounds (containing one functional group) to identify the functional group in each
• Describe a procedure that will allow to confirm identity of a carbonyl compound (formed in the reaction with 2,4-DNP)
• Draw the structure of organic products formed when different reagents are added to compounds containing more than one functional group

The activities in the workbook start with recall questions / review of chemical tests for organic functional groups and are followed by multiple application questions (including stretch and challenge questions) to give students plenty of practice.
The PP for teachers / students supports the Activities in the workbook and contains the answers to exam questions in the Workbook.

The resources were prepared with the use of A Level Chemistry A for OCR A textbook, (2016 A-level Chemistry specification ), some questions are OCR past exam questions, some have been taken from Evaluative Tasks (previous specification) and some are from OCR Stretch and Challenge material.
